Here's a link to an article from a gun owner, NRA member, conservative judge, that talks about why we should ban assault weapons. "It speaks horribly of the public discourse in this country that talking about gun reform in the wake of a mass shooting is regarded as inappropriate or as politicizing the tragedy. But such a conversation is political only to those who are ideologically predisposed to see regulation of any kind as the creep of tyranny. And it is inappropriate only to those delusional enough to believe it would disrespect the victims of gun violence to do anything other than sit around and mourn their passing. Mourning is important, but so is decisive action." Sandy Hook should not have happened, and so we should act so that it does not happen again.
