Quoted:
Source?  Not that I'm doubting you, but I would like to read the whole release.

I presume you are simply posting a press release or other document, and that you did not actually compose the page on your web site titled "AB 50: Ban .50-Caliber BMG Sniper Rifles."  If this is the case, I am disappointed that you do not research this piece for accuracy and factuality.  If you had, you would realize that virtually every statement in it is false.

The .50 BMG rifle has been used in a single documented crime in this country.  One.  Hardy a menace, eh?  It is a large, heavy, and expensive weapon, and is not suitable for shooting down aircraft or destroying any kind of significant infrastructure.  Terrorists would have no use for this weapon.  If they wanted to bring down an airliner they would use a shoulder fired surface-to-air missle.  If they wanted to destroy large infrastructure installations they would use explosives.  The only people who have any real interest in .50 BMG rifles are law abiding shooting hobbyists.

You would do well to start researching your own web site content.  Merely regurgitating VPC propaganda (and lies, for that matter) will lose you credibility.  You certainly have with me.  It would seem you are just another self-interest group with a political agenda and a large ax to wield.

Think about it.  You are actively engaged in the spread of lies and deceit.  What kind of people does that make you?

Sincerely,

marvl
