I don't think taking away guns is the answer... taking away a persons firearm... pistol, rifle, etc. that wants to use it for personal protection and then it gets stolen from them, all they have to do is cross the border into mexico (or have someone cross the border for them) and bring back a load of AKs fresh from Russia, I would bet any one of you 500$ USD that such a transaction is happening as we speak. Whats the use of taking away someone's registed .38 Special, so that they can illegally obtain an unregistered illegal AK-74? I think this is the dumbest thing a politician has done since going into Iraq blind. Personally I would be the first person to get an AK.
