A great NRA bumper sticker, except it doesn't pass the common sense test. Assault weapons are a very, very small portion of the American firearms market. I'm saying that 99% of what's sold should still be legal.
So your story is actually incredibly incorrect. In fact, the reverse is true. No one is asking you to be left with just the crumbs. What people like me are suggesting is, you give up the crumbs, and keep the vast majority of that satisfying cake.
Not willing to give up the crumbs to maybe save the life of a little child?
For what it's worth, I laughed my azz off at the sound effects - NOM NOM NOM, I kept picturing Nancy Pelosi dressed as the Cookie Monster. That was a really funny post, I guess we just disagree on how intrusive it would be to eliminate a small percentage of the guns that really cater to a fringe element of our culture.
I loved shooting weapons in the USMC, I can't deny that it's an adrenaline rush.
