I love it when people want to ban types of weapons...the Idea behind it is to keep criminals from using and purchasing them. People don't want to see stuff like the LA shoot out and what not...well I hate to tell the firearm banning people that banning them DOES NOT WORK. people that are going to use these types of weapons don't car about the law. The only people that gun bans bother are LEGAL firearm owners. The ban also made it a big no-no to modify a rifle, or sell it with High cap mags. You can still get them. I made it so there was no more being imported or sold with firearms..but what was already out is legal. Why do I want said weapon..easy because I can have it. The gun ban was just something to make people fell like something is being done to stop criminals from having these weapons...well It didn't work and will never work. People that are going to commit crimes with weapons (like the LA bank) will get what they want from the black market in mexico. where the hell do you think they go those full auto Ak's and H&K's from? Not the local gun store. The black market. The guns are still out there and are still in this country..law abiding citizens still have them... People that think banning types of firearms are making a diffrence are just fooling themselves.

Actually I am in the marine reserve and I got an m-16 before the ban so I could keep my target skills up when I'm not on duty.

no. kalifornia has its own set of rules.
NO ar, ak, or anything that looks evil.
remember, the criminals has to follow these rules too. so we should all feel safer about that.
seriously though, we kalifornians are F'd when it comes to owning guns. more and more laws are getting created and passed (look at the current SB50 - which will BAN all .50 cal rifles).
for more silliness:

lemme just add, that those with ARs, AKs, etc, had to "register" them 2 years ago to be "legal" in the state.
otherwise, if you still own one of those evil guns, and HAVENT registered them with the gov, you are a felon, IIRC.
btw, you CANNOT register anymore "assault" rifles anymore. the time has come and gone.
thank your local liberal anti-gun politicos. getting rid of gray davis was just the first step...
next up is DON "i have my CCW but you as a normal joe schmoe cant... " PERATA...

from the way I usnderstand it california will still be dorked when it comes to guns because of state regulations on weapons, which sucks for california gun owners. I'm pretty sure that New Yorkers and a few other states are still dorked too from state regs.
Now if the ban does go away it will allow the import of so called assult weapons again and the import of high cap magazines for sale. That of corse is in states with no regulations aginst them that is.

Gun control laws are racist
Since gun control laws are steep in racist motives, those that support such laws are racists.
Therefore, Senators Feinswine & Blockster are racists.

By natural extension of this inspired Oaf reasoning,
Since the United States was founded on racist principles (legal ownership of slaves, genocide against native populations) anyone who supports the United States is racist.
Therefore all of the flag waving republicans who support the US are racists too.
I guess you just can't win.

I'm against many types of gun control (i.e. considering any rifle with a pistol grip an assult rifle 
) as well, but to consider gun control racism is absurd.-Chris

I don't know, it seems to me that gun control laws in many localities are aimed at taking away minorities right to own firearms. I believe that it is illegal in Chicago (may be somewhere else) to own a pistol. Minority neighborhoods in this city are plagued by violence. Politicians in order to "protect" their minority constituants propose banning hand guns to reduce the violence. Well we all know that the criminals causing the violence don't obey laws, so what did the law really do. Disarm the only people that obey the laws!
So in essence we minorities keep voting our right to protect ourselves away, and our sympathetic politicians are more than happy to take them away and convince us that we better off because of it? How is that going to make these neighborhoods safer? The criminals know that only they and the cops are armed so the cops are all they have to worry about, aside from other criminals. So nothing in these neighborhoods change because gun control laws do not affect criminals.
