No one needs access to an assault weapon. This country really needs to rethink these gun laws. Hunting is one thing. Military style weaponry is just that a weapon!Dec 17th, 2012Someone from Pasadena, CA signed.

2nd Amendment ( right to bear arms ), was amended in 1791 and none of these forefathers are around anymore to see the repercussions of what they have amended; it's up to those who are around to wake up and smell a new flavor for the modern times.REPORT COMMENTS

assault weapons of military grade have no place in any household in america. These are designed to commit mass killings and for the purpose of self defence we do not need such high powered weapons. Please ban all semi automatics in USA, confiscate them from current owners. Second amendment is outdated and needs to be tweaked to fit our current culture and circumstances. It should DEFINE the kind of arms that a citizen can legally keep and bear.REPORT COMMENTS

There is absolutely no rationale for owning an assault weapon. Citizens should recognize that the gun lobby is protecting the interest of the manufacturers of these type of weapon. It's not about freedom; IT'S ABOUT MONEY.REPORT COMMENTS

The second amendment doesn't suggest that having an assault weapon that can shoot over 100 bullets or more is the true meaning of the amendment. STOP THE NRA and its lobbist--for them, its all about the money gun dealers make and not even run a background check on any weapons purchased, Are we that barbaric? Statistics show we definitely are barbaric and lack any moral fiber. Guns kill, frankly all guns should be outlawed. How many more children do you want to see brutally murdered??????REPORT COMMENTS

It is beyond insane that assault weapons are allowed to be possessed by the general public. You can place the blame for the tragedy in Newtown directly on the heads of the N.R.A. and their buddies in congress.REPORT COMMENTS
