Think about having to get special legislative permission

for Olympic shooter to keep their pistols at home. No ammo. And you could only fire it at a "Registered regional shooting club". This kind of bullshit is what Clinton and Obama & Co. want here. And let's not forget Giuliani wouldn't mind it, either.

Also, check this out on gun-ban groups methods of speech:
In his 1988 "report on assault weapons," gun prohibitionist Josh Sugarmann wrote: "The weapon’s menacing looks, coupled with the public’s confusion over fully automatic machine guns versus semi-automatic assault weapons – anything that looks like a machine gun is assumed to be a machine gun – can only increase the chance of public support for restrictions on these weapons. In addition, few people can envision a practical use for these guns." In other words, Sugarmann expected public support for a ban on "semi-automatic assault weapons," because that public was completely uninformed about the guns so labeled. And he expected the public to stay uninformed about these guns, because, as he candidly acknowledged, the media the public looks to for information were equally uninformed about them

Both found through the good offices of Uncle.
