No civilian needs this kind of firepower. Yes, I'm a veteran, I've shot all kinds of U.S. and foreign military weapons of all calibers. I've owned guns for sport, hunting, and self defense.
When I worked in DOD I recall a weird time when a wave of dick measuring swept through my office when all the civilian men were buying ludicrous assault weapons for no reason than to feel like their sense of manhood was fulfilled for each other's approval. Nobody needed those guns for anything. It was a result of a uniquely American, manufactured gun worship that advertising has successfully linked into many men's sense of their own maleness. Kind of pathetic in my opinion.
No civilian needs this kind of firepower. We had limitations on 2A before. We even have some limitations on it now. We can do more. Take military style assault weapons off the market. huffpost.com/entry/ap-us-med-cโฆ
