nice rant.
the only reason (most people) dont want machineguns to be allowed is because they think it would allow criminals to get them. they need to understand the NFA and all the background checks/fingerprinting/hours of paperwork/months of waiting time that no criminal would be willing to put up with, especially when they can get them on the black market immediately just like they do now. they also need to understand that the 2nd amendment exists so that citizens can protect themselves from a tyranical government. does it not click with them that the government banning certain types of guns is just weakening the citizens so that the government can become however corrupt it wants when the politicians know the citizenry is outgunned and incapable of opposition or revolution?
