Hello Highroaders,
I was wondering - What is the argument for reinstating the Assault Weapons Ban that expired in 2004? Have the demographics of American safety declined in the last four years? What related events have occured since it expired? Was there an explosion of assault-weapon related crime? Was it assault weapons that killed the Wall Street?
Is it because we are worried about drug cartels in Mexico? I'm not saying we shouldn't be, but I wonder how much the AWB directly impacts that situation. Maybe instead of reinstating it we could create more American jobs in the US Border Patrol.
I do not wish undue suffering on anyone. But I do think that the rights of American citizens come before the considerations of other nations.
