Please support a ban and help make our country safer for everyone. ********** [103844:010719] L.D., Manhattan, KS Please save lives. Assault weapons are not covered by the Second Amendment. Ban them now. Thank you. ********** [175504:092718] L.M., Rahway, NJ Handguns are most commonly used to commit crime, so there should be a ban on cheap, inacurrate weapons like the snub nose .38. ********** [230549:081418] M.C., Myrtle Beach, SC You will never have a chance of getting my vote if you don't support this COMMON SENSE measure. And I will do my best to see you are not reelected. ********** [005820:061418] E.M., Palatine, IL Military style weapons are designed ONLY for the military! ********** [052000:050118] B.L., Yorkville, CA It is insanity that assault weapons are legal. Please do something. We The People are sick of the inaction of our elected officials. Ban these killing machines now! ********** [140634:042918] g.b., Lakewood, OH These weapons don't even give victims a oppurtunity to run while the lunitics are reloading (sarcasium not humor) ********** [125810:042918] S.W., Portland, OR Get rid of these guns! ********** [080555:042918] R.H., Pentwater, MI Enough willful ignorance! ********** [222005:042718] J.H., Las Vegas, NV Please stop the slaughter. The next kid might be yours. ********** [184803:042718] R.M., Santa Maria, CA It is long past time that something is done about assault weapons. The country is on the right side of this issue, so our politicians need to be as well. ********** [144454:042718] F.F., Fort Wayne, IN No civilian should be armed with a military weapon designed for mass murder! ********** [142823:042618] M.G., Cascadia, OR Weapons of war should be stored in the armory until a well-regulated militia deems their use necessary. ********** [093312:042618] M.D., Arvada, CO Hunting is a legitimate activity and an important part of conservation efforts, when well managed. Target shooting is a legitimate recreation. Assault-style weapons are not hunting weapons, and are not currently confined to licensed and regulated shooting ranges. They should be so confined, or banned. ********** [091107:042618] J.W., Bokeelia, FL I am WEARY of this argument and I believe that at least 80-85% of U.S. citizens are too. We NEED to STOP this! I am speaking as a mother who lost her ONLY child to a gun. STOP this MADNESS! ********** [231223:042518] M.R., Palm Springs, CA No individual has need of an assault weapon ********** [203606:042518] J.D., Redwood City, CA I am 86 yrs. old, have 8 grandchildren, work with Head Start programs, am the child of immigrants from the Middle East, have lived and worked in the Middle East, and have never felt the fear for our youth that I feel and see today. Please defeat the NRA and its supporters. ********** [201916:042518] K.H., Norcross, GA No civilian needs an assault weapon. They are only good for murdering people and animals. Ban them now! ********** [145924:042518] J.M., Columbia, MO There is no legally or morally defensible reason to advocate for allowing people to either purchase or have military assault weapons. ********** [140628:042518] V.H., Minneapolis, MN When will you take action that aligns with what a majority of US citizens want--more gun control? Fixing the terrorist watch list and also banning assault weapons is necessary if we are to stop the slaughter. ********** [122457:042518] J.P., Ripley, WV How many children must die, law enforcement officers, civilians, spouses and other innocent people, because the NRA would go bankrupt losing their funding from the gun manufactures, gun zealots, corporate America and politican's less campaign funds into their coffers, if all military type of assault weapons were banned? Childrens, law enforcement, spouses and citizens lives are less important than a ban on all military weapons made exclusively for killing?? ********** [112723:042518] M.A., Flagstaff, AZ Please stop taking nra cash and vote for reasonable gun laws, you represent us ,not the nra! ********** [084527:042518] R.E., Clifton Park, NY There is no use for an assault rifle other than to commit assault on a human. ********** [054330:042518] M.D., Miami, FL Clearly, there is no reason for civilians to own assault weapons or extyended maga zines. The should be banned. As with any such action, there may be exceptions, such would require extreme vetting, proof of knowledge and skill, permitting with annual verification, registration of the weapon, and explicit liability for all activity with the weapn. ********** [032257:042518] R.W., Sioux Falls, SD Show some nerve ********** Go Back
