"As President Obama indicated during the campaign, there are just a few gun-related changes that we would like to make, and among them would be to re-institute the ban on the sale of assault weapons," Holder said.

They're not banning assault rifles or any other weapon for that matter. Praxeas, stop reading the national enquirer!
"As President Obama indicated during the campaign, there are just a few gun-related changes that we would like to make, and among them would be to reinstitute the ban on the sale of assault weapons," Holder told reporters.
"I think closing the gun show loophole, the banning of cop-killer bullets and I also think that making the assault weapons ban permanent, would be something that would be permitted under Heller," Holder said, referring to the Supreme Court ruling in Washington, D.C. v. Heller, which asserted the Second Amendment as an individual's right to own a weapon.

As if banning assault weapons sales in the USA is going to affect their use in Mexico. Good grief! Just South of Mexico are dozens of countries with more assault weapons for Mexicans to buy that they would ever find in America.
I don't really fear Obama in this area unless he gets a second term. If he gets that and has nothing to lose you will see radical gun control pushed.

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
Do you own any of the assault type weapons or ammunition they're talking about?
THANK YOU, TSTEW!!!!!
Really, folks! What business does a peace loving Christian have owning a high capacity ASSAULT rifle!!! Who you gonna kill if I might ask? Your neighbor when he comes after your 7 year supply?
I just don't get how someone can feel comfortable owning one of those!

I was genuinely asking out of curiousity. I personally don't have a problem with the article I read. I'm curious as to how many of the average Americans this ban would affect both negatively and positively (as in who might be safer without assault weapons and ammunition being on the streets). I'm honestly wondering if anybody has a problem with this specifically or whether it is the "slippery slope" that they are afraid of...kind of a "greasy gun-control" effect.
