Here is a new AWB proposal to chew on. (Introduced Jun 12, 2008)
(quote)
(a) RESTRICTION- Section 922 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by adding after subsection (u) the following:
`(v)(1) It shall be unlawful for a person to manufacture, transfer, or possess a semiautomatic assault weapon.
(/quote)
I see there is some grandfathering. Not the point.

It isn't so much that I fear this will go anywhere in an election year, but what might be more interesting to note, is that it was introduced by a REPUBLICAN.
And, that ALL THREE cosponsors "so far" are REPUBLICANS.
Hmmmmm...........just a thought, isn't McAmnesty a Republican too?

Unfortunately, this bill is very much like what we already have in NJ. On close reading, it will allow for an A2 or A4 rifle, but only if it does not have a bayonet lug (?) and a flash supressor. My RRA
NM rifle is legal under this definition. Just as in NJ, these dolts think that a flash supressor and bayonet lug make a gun more dangerous... It would be nice if the idiot politicians who make up these laws actually had fired a gun much less held it.

Once again, this illustrates that we simply fail to see the problem at its roots.
It is NOT about Republican or Democrat. Ron Paul is good, not due to his "Republican" status, but due to his "individualist" philosophy.
It is about Collectivism -vs- Individualism.
Collectivists infest all the spectrum's of our single party, the Globalist-Collectivist Party.
Simply put, our Republic was formed based on our foundational philosophy, enshrined in the Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Our Republic through its mandated governance, was formed to secure and protect Individualism, e.g. the rights of the individual.
Collectivism "uses" the "power and force" of government and of the law, to force perceived "equality" and to force special privilege or wealth redistribution for "groups" or "classes".
Individualism ensures that all individuals are equal "under" the law. There is no special class, or special privilege for any group or segment of society.
Collectivists believe in government and the expansion of its power over individuals, never do they believe in or advocate for its limitations, or on the sanctity of individual liberties.
Individual liberty is a danger and an obstacle to the aims of collectivism.
Any person wanting to serve in government should be examined using this measure and the measure of his/her adherence to the Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Party matters not one bit. Collectivists infest all spectrum's of society.
As far as good republicans go... There is Ron Paul.
No good Demonkrats come to mind.
Ron Paul is NOT Republican ... he's Libertarian ... In a Republican Suit!
Understand this..if you understand nothing else;
mcain and obama represent the very worst America has to offer..garbage both. They spread their garbage out like cavier..and the ignorant, stupid people that infest this fair land gobble it like candy.
What a pathetic lot republican and democrat supporters are...they are and will be the death of America.
So that is what you call a man willing to let you live your life as you see fit...instead of what your Masters demand ?

I must agree with you HB. However, one is Slightly worse than the other and I just can't see McCain being the worst one.
The problem here is...when democrats are in office, decent people watch them like a hawk..realizing the level of perversion extant in the party. The democrats get little done...
Let a republican take over, and everybody assumes that we are in good hands...and goes back to playing at the lake.
Witness the breathtaking level of invasions into personal privacy and rights of citizens that have taken place in the last 8 years...
