Konrad,

As you see, reasonable people can disagree on the isssue of gun rights. Of course, this being a firearms forum you will probably find more people posting here who would agree with, for lack of a better term, "Any Gun, Anyone, Anywhere." I believe strongly in individual freedom, the Second Amendment and am a gun owner but still believe that it is reasonable and at times beneficial to restrict possession and ownership of guns.

However, that being said there is a better way to remedy the full auto question. Organize politically and repeal the 1934 NFA, the Hughes Amendment from the 1986 FOPA and the 1968 GCA. Then start with other laws you don't like that regulate guns and repeal them too. The courts did not make those laws, the legislatures did. Rather than try and thwart them through the courts, vote them away!

You see, the real bulwark against tyranny is the vote. Get involved, organize and overcome. In my county here in TN, the County Commission wished to restrict our right to carry CCW in the county buildings. We organized and defeated the measure. No lawyers or courts needed! Cheaper too!
