First, let me apologize to kapoc for taking the wind from beneath his feet. I'm sorry, I know how it is to get a new gun.
Now, UncleB. You have no idea what it's like being "born red in a blue state". Boxer, Feinstein, Hollyweird and the Land of the Fruits and the Nuts. It's not easy.
But, words, and spin control is very important, no matter where you live. If we allow them to frame the issues, we are always coming from behind.
Now, for instance; is a black semiauto with a pistol grip, an assault weapon, as the Media tells us it is? Or, is there some way we can apply logic and define the term as originally intended, ie: a full auto small arm machine gun?
They also tell us that there is "no legitimate sporting purpose for assault weapons".
See, two lies in one sentence!
First of all, nowhere in the second ammendment does it say we only have a right to own firearms that have a "legitimate sporting purpose". Rather, it says we have the right to keep and bear arms; maybe for self defense, not just bird hunting.
Secondly, we have allowed stupid people that do not understand what an assault weapon is; to define what an "assault weapon" is? Is that rediculous, or what?
This is serious stuff. I do not own weapons, or any type of machine gun, but I have a number of firearms.
Good hunting. LB
