Again, they are just the same as any other semi auto hunting rifles, and more people die from bare fists. You really think <1000 victims in this huge country warrants punishing tens of millions of good gun owners? You talk about us living in fear yet you buy into the media sensationalism and emotional outbursts. Banning these does nothing when you can find them illegally. I can go down to Englewood and find a FULLY automatic gun if I wanted to, and buy it illegally.
