Gun control is putting 7+1 rounds in the same 1/2 inch hole at 25 yards.

Seriously, what do you think all these extra restrictions do? Take the weapons away from law abidding citizens. That's it.

The criminals will just ignore the law and get around it - and still own guns. That's what they do! They're criminals!

Why do think the 2nd Ammendment is there? To allow be people to have personal defense tools? No. To allow criminals to be dangerous? No. Criminals, esp ones with violent tendancies, are dangerous anyway. My own two hands are lethal weapons - should I wish to apply them that way. To allow hobbiests to have vast armouries for display? No.

The 2^nd Ammendment is there to protect We the People from Government. Don't think that is needed? Try reading the PATRIOT ACT. Yet We the Sheep seem all to willing to sell our power and our protection over to the Government for the illusion of safety and security.

"Those that would trade Liberty for Security will have neither Liberty nor Security" ~Benjamin Franklin

Don't think that the general populace needs assault riffles? I'll tell you one reason that We the People do: the standing army has assault riffles.

The number one rule for subjugating a population is disarm it. Read any military treatise and you will find this guiding factor. Then you segregate and eliminate malcontents, and seduce the remaining populace to your cause. "War is extension of policy by other means" ..... and "the purpose of war is to deminish your opponents capability to wage war."

The problem is not, and never has been the availability of weapons to the populace. The problem is people. To cure a disease, you do not treat a symtom. You treat the disease. That means removing those that are dangerous to society from society. No law can ever prevent an action. No law has ever stopped a bullet, or a rape, or a burglery. Consequenses for breaking the law can be a deterant, but that's it. Hopefully the deterant is high enough that the risk of commiting the crime does not equal doing the time, so to speak.
