It's nothing more than a dream, but I think that it'd be much more useful if those legislators now wishing to ban "assault rifles" would, instead, spend the same time and energy pushing for the strict enforcement of the thousands of gun laws already on the books and the immediate and harsh punishment of those who break them. Were they to do that, this nation's gun owners would rise and stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Unfortunately, this will never likely happen and the argument over firearms -- of any type -- will continue with no end in sight.
