Yup. The left wants to get rid of assault rifles. So? Is there any purpose for an assault rifle other than to murder as many people as possible in the least amount of time? Do assault rifles make anyone smarter, richer, more enlightened, better or more engaged civilians in social or political affairs. Nope. Assault rifles are only meant to kill...and WHY again is it that Americans have the right...a constitutionally protected right to kill? Doesn't anyone see anything wrong with that? I always wish I could take Americans to other nations where you don't have to worry about getting shot in a Wal-Mart, a school, a church, or when being pulled over...just so people might realize that there are safer and more effective ways to protect yourself and police your community rather than arming yourself to the teeth. I don't see left or right to be honest...at the end of the day all I see is a public safety issue. It's sad that people defend their weapons more than each other.
