RE: Chicago Violence, blame handguns not assault rifles...
I had mine own thoughts on the weapon/rifle is only a tool.....
at what point does steal, and metal, and springs etc....become a rifle? so at what point is it just metal vs a rifle? at what point does it become illegal? IMO its kind of dumb that we can make something illegal like that.....make the crime/act illegal, not the choice of weapon etc....
As far as assault weapon asked earlier.....I'm quite certain that its not only full auto rifles.....its semi auto, and I know some or most hunting rifles would qualify, the semi auto versions that is, sure fully auto would qualify but they were talking about semi autos too.
