A ban on semi-automatic rifles and large capacity magazines is cited as “not reasonable” because they are “clearly suitable for militia use and are often ideal for self-defense.” To which “militia” (a civilian military force raised to support the regular army or raised to oppose the regular Army) is he referring? The group who took over the wildlife refuge in Oregon? I’d sure feel safer to know they have semi-automatic rifles. “Ideal for self-defense”? Name one example. Seems to me those have been used by mass killers of innocent students and churchgoers.

| Cops have full auto so called assault rifles. Why should we the people, the first responders to violent crime, be at a disadvantage when faced with armed criminals? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
