Crime with Automatic or Assault Weapons
When is enough going to be enough? When are the people who write the laws going to get fed up and re-write them? Does a Kennedy child have to die? Or maybe a Bush child? Does the president's daughter have to get shot?
With what happened in Pittsburgh today, and Oakland two weeks ago when is a lead politician going to grow a big pair of balls and start fixing this?
In 1776 the average citizen needed a gun to protect his family and eat. Today we have Safeway and Smith's and we do NOT need a gun to eat. In 1776 the French, the British, the Spanish, and the nearby Native American tribes could attack at anytime. Today we have the Navy, Army, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard, and National Guard.
There is zero reason that a citizen needs an AK-47 or most of the hand guns we have, or any automatic or assault weapon. Single shot rifles, handguns, and shotguns are fine, I don't want to take those away from hunters. But you can't hunt with these automatic or assault weapons. There is just no reason for them. The local police departments can house them, and if we are attacked-a person can drive over and get theirs out of lockup.
When is enough going to be enough? President Obama, we need brass balls not brass shell casings.
Change the law!
