If any sort of gun ban passes, I might as well drill an auto sear hole and install some auto parts. If they are going to call my sporting rifle and "assault rifle", I might as well make it one.

they always will be.

were they not, the nra would not even exist.

in fact i would postulate that the nra totally securing gun rights forevermore would not be in their best interest as an organization, it would largely remove their purpose as we currently know it.

but i wander off here, the important thing is that we all realize that our rights are only secure so long as we continue to fight for them tooth and nail without compromise.
