I was reading about the recent legislation allowing veterans to keep posession of mahine guns brought back from wars.  After reading the whole article I was sick.  

Check what was at the very end of the article:

"Veterans should not be considered criminals for having and holding these souvenirs," said Jones. "These type of firearms represent a moment in their lives where there was extreme danger. The bill deals appropriately with how veterans should be treated should they possess these firearms.

"We know that veterans sometimes decorate their halls with a firearm captured from World War Two. The machine gun should be [b]declared inoperable[/b] to conform with the laws of the United States. But to declare these veterans as criminals for having these firearms, we think is wrong," Jones added.

It just makes me sick to my stomach...
