I don't own any of these weapons. Why should I care? It's not goanna affect me anyway.
2nd Amendment. I suggest you read it, and then read the writings of our founding fathers.
Also, its about freedom, and regardless of whether you own one of these firearms, why would you support the loss of freedom and infringements on the 2nd Amendment? Surely you would not support any infringement of 1st Amendment or 3rd Amendment, so why the 2nd?
Finally, it will affect you when the precedence is set, and then a new target is acquired. Like, oh, 50 cal firearms.... NYS Assembly has been trying to ban 50-cal and larger projectile firearms for a couple years - even though it will not "stop criminals", not to mention not a single crime has been committed using a 50cal rifle. The reason given by the sponsor? "Well, it makes a really big hole!"
Its not firearms, its criminal behavior. Firearms ownership is protected by 2nd amendment. Read up, and defend your rights, and in the process defend the rights of your children, grand children and great grandchildren.
