as I have said before, I have no problem with someone having a handgun for personal protection or a rifle for hunting. But there should be more training before you can get any kind of gun, more background checking, and no one has ever given me a reason why any average citizen needs an automatic rifle.I have had people tell me they are fun to shoot. Fine, if you want to have that kind of fun, go to a gun range and shoot one there. No reason anyone needs to own one.
