The assault weapons ban is a copmlete misnomer. No assault weapons are banned by that bill. Assault weapons have been illegal to the general public since the Gun Control Act of 1969. The assault weapons ban made magazines over a certain capacity illegal, as well as pistol grips on a rifle, flash suppressors and bayonet lugs (because of all those damn drive by bayonettings in the inner city). This law was worthless and it did nothing to reduce crime; it was nothing more then a publicity stunt.

We can't, Michael Moore bullied K Mart into stopping their ammunition sales because the kids from Columbine bought their ammo there. By Moore's logic, that makes it K Mart's fault. Attention whore moron.

Prior to the "ban"...so called "assault" weapons were used in far less than 1% of crimes that involve weapons. I currently do not know if the "ban" reduced the number of crimes that "assault" weapons were used in by any significant number since the number was not significant prior to the "ban".

The "ban" was against the import of the weapons and was not grand fathered thus there never was really a federal "ban" against ownership of the weapons (some states established their own "ban" and in some cases the "ban" was much stricter than the federal "ban")...in addition it did not totally ban the import...because the manufacturers made cosmetic changes on some weapons thus qualifying them for import.

Some people do not realize that the sale of full automatic weapons was banned...I think by a 1934 law (execept for those that possess a license to own full automatic weapons)...and that the "assault" weapons being discussed are not full automatic weapons. They are semi automatic weapons and they do not shoot any further...or any faster...nor are they anymore powerful then any semi automatic "hunting/target shooting" weapon that has always been legal to own. The only real difference in them over any semi automatic weapon is the number of rounds held in the clips/magazines. Other than that they are not anymore dangerous/malevolent than anyother semi automatic weapon.

As for "need"...that is subjective...in the eye of the beholder...so to speak.
