I hate gun control for fully automatic weapons, it defeats the entire point of the 2nd Amendment, which is there so that America can have a well armed militia. Right now there may not be much in the way of an invasion threat from other countries, but that can change very fast. You can't have an effecient militia if all they have to fight with is .22 caliber rifles and hand-guns to fight against a well armed army. What we need is better gun education, not gun control, gun laws only take guns out of the hands of those who obey the laws. I personally think there would be much less in the way of school shootings if we actually put the effort into helping kids deal with their problems that we put into trying to keep guns "under-control".
