Dems introduce bill banning assault weapons

Such a bill was almost a necessity on their side of the aisle, they had to so something so they could blame the rest of us for universally being the bad guys! They also know that if they throw enough balls of mud at the wall, a little of it sticks each time. Sooner or later, the whole thing will stick. Then we will have a problem. All it takes is the right disaster - something that generates so much public outcry that no one would stand up to it. Remember the Lindberg kidnapping - kidnapping was not a significant offense before that. Emotion always outruns logic and facts on the short term.
