The main problem with banning them is that doing so IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
I am all for 'sensible' gun control, believe me. However before anything sensible that involves BANNING can pass constitutional muster we must recind the second ammendment, which provides for:
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State,
the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
If the predictions of the AWB sunsetting on Monday come to fruition, it will indeed be a banner (
) day for the constitution and the founding principles of this great land
It's about time our government does something positive. This tiny little piece of inactivity is a good start.
