It's the "gun loving mentality" It's the "power" they feel when they hold a gun, I just wonder how they would feel if a loved one, especially a child was killed by a gun. Why does anybody need an assault gun? Just because?

Not wanting any firearms banned is NOT the same as not wanting any controls.

mark, i have to agree with you, i do not see the need to have an Uzi in my house but a 22 or a rifle or a muzzle loader for hunting purposes is fine with me, I don't want that taken away. i can see gun control on things like an Uzi and what not.....i personally have no problem with that. i don't want my 4 yr old to get hold of something like that.

The law as you've described it wouldn't do anything to prevent straw purchases.

Okay, so that answers that question, but how would that law prevent straw purchases or sales?

I personally have no use for an Uzi either, but that isn't to say that I think they should be banned for those who do like them and have the means ($) to purchase and keep it as well as feed it.
