This country has an amazingly strong gun lobby. I don't image that the government will be taking all our guns away any time soon. I am sorry, but i see no problem with the banning of assault weapons. They are not necessary for sportsman, collectors or personal protection.

Ummm I collect them.
Seriously, assault waepons are already strictly controlled. And have been for ages.
What they are saying is that hunting weapons with un-pc looks are to be controlled. That's a non-starter.
BTW, semi auto .223 weapons that are wrongly termed "assault weapons" are widely used for target shooting, varment shooting and are avidly collected.
