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? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
