You might need an assault rifle for self-defense, but that would be defense against your own fantasies; you won’t be attacked by a horde of lawless intruders. Otherwise, it’s more likely that someone in your family will commit suicide with it, kill someone accidentally, or, in the case of Sandy Hook Elementary, kill a whole classroom of first-graders. Twenty children who will never have another peanut butter and jelly sandwich or another birthday. |

Bunch of lies. There are what....8 million ARS out there, and only a handful are used in mass shootings. Actually more mass shootings are done with handguns.
There have NOT been 8,000,000 +1 mass shootings out there, bozo. That's the only way what you said could be true. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
