This is not about taking away Second Amendment Rights; it is about sensible gun legislation that puts laws in place that serve the well-being of all of us, not just the profits of gun makers. We need fewer congressional moments of silence on the anniversary of Sandy Hook and more laws removing assault rifles from the public market as before 2008, when the ban ended.
We could protect children in gun owners’ homes with smart gun legislation that gun lobbyists opposed. Congress needs to act. |

The AWB ended in 2004, not 2008. And despite the claim of not wanting to take away 2A rights, it does. Do these people really not know what "shall not be infringed" means? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle, as quoted by John Trenchard and Water Moyle, An Argument Shewing, That a Standing Army Is Inconsistent with a Free Government, and Absolutely Destructive to the Constitution of the English Monarchy [London, 1697]. |
