Ready for a Gun ban?

I honestly don't know how many of the average law-abiding gun owners own assault type weapons or ammunition and wanted to see how many here may.

A lot of murders are done with hand guns. In fact I'd say most gun shootings and fatalities are not assault rifles.

Personally I believe in regulation, but not banning. The problem with banning is the only people that won't have guns are the very people they can't protect from the nuts out there with illegal guns

Don't we have a near total ban on Narcotics and varius drugs? How well does that work. We have a ban on drinking and driving under the influence. That seems to be a waste of legal paper. Of course if all cars had all ignition systems wired into a breathelyzer, congress men would be grounded or be able to drive only with a chaffeur.

IF drinking and driving was not illegal there would be more folks doing it I am sure
