so basically let the people who already have them, keep them. But they should stop selling them.

You can't even go hunting with an automatic weapon, so there is no reason for them anyways. The only REAL reason for having them is the zombie apocalypse....duh obama has doomed us all...:(halo3-player

Slippery slope fallacy, you have no evidence to suggest this.. Infact the assualt rifle has been banned before, and it did not lead to any more bannings of guns.

History has taught us what can happen when rights are given up or taken away. More rights may get taken away. 

What rights are being taken away? You can still go hunting, and you can still defend yourself. Assault rifles are made for one purpose and one purpose only; to take away another human life. I don't know about you, but to me that's the most important right that everyone is entitled to.

Its just assault rifles guys its not like he is saying no guns ever you can still have shotguns handguns and whatever else you can think of Serraph105

[QUOTE="markop2003"]you don't need an assault rifle though i'ld allow semi auto rifles, possibly with a limit on magazine sizeLoporadaso

You do realize that full auto weapons have been banned for civilian sale since 1986 right? All thats left now is semi auto rifles, which are being refered to as "assault rifles" even though there aren't.

[QUOTE="Sgt_Randall"][QUOTE="Jigsaw9798"]Lol TC is a redneck. But seriously, I believe that right to bare arms should be limited to pistols and rifles(not assault, only for people who hunt). The right to bare arms is necessary to keep the police force from gaining too much power, but that doesn't mean the average citizen should have an assault rifle.Jigsaw9798

Well, I meant to say assault weapons in general. But assault weapons are weapons that can fire bullets that hit with a very powerful impact in rapid succession with high accuracy.

[QUOTE="Guiltfeeder566"]If your going have gun control at all, ban hand guns and automatic weapons from inter-cities. Thats were the big problem is, the rest of America responsibly own guns, don't punish honest Americans. Sajo7

I thought we did ban automatics.

I suppose thats something. I have no problem with people owning shotguns or rifles but there is no valid reason to own a machine gun in the US.

nevermind. i just read that SINCE 1934 there was two murders with an legal automatic. one was by a law enforcement officer
