I carried my 9 mill legally for years and still do. I don't really feel like I need an AK 47 to defend my family from criminals. As long as I can carry my handguns, I am fine. I don't think they want to ban all guns.

No one's taking my guns, ever. My kids will inherit them. No one will take yours either. How many on this forum would willingly give them up?
You've got to be kidding me...
WWWAAAAAAKKKKEEE UPPPPP
In the House, HR2038 has been introduced by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy, D-N.Y. Instead of a "reauthorization" of the earlier ban, McCarthy wants to ban millions more guns and begin a backdoor national registration scheme. All told, HR2038 is a giant step closer to the goal stated by the assault-weapons ban sponsor, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., on CBS "60 Minutes": "If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States for an outright ban, picking up every one of them -- Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them all in -- I would have done it."
Well that's the problem isn't it? Knock at your door, 5 National Guardsman outside with a talking head and a clip board...
They are here for your weapons...
What do you do??? Pull out your GAT and start blasting? Shut the door? Deny you have any weapons?
There's the classic NRA fantasy of "from my cold dead hands" but when reality strikes, what really is the course of action. Surrender your weapons and continue to live a happy life with your family?
OR
Death and maybe jail? Leaving your now UNARMED family to fend for themselves?
IT concerns me a little bit... My instant response is that I'm a dead shot out to about 150yrds and I've got plenty of ammo and concrete. But in the end I am still either dead or facing life in prison. Both completely full of fail...
SO yeah I dunno... How about you?
Feinstein's been sprouting her anti-gun crap for 15 years. Listen to Obama's stance on it and you'll realize that nothing more than cleaning up the registrations will change.

The only thing I don't get is "Why?"
Honestly, why would the government do something other than carry out the wishes of the people who put them in power? It can't all be bribes and lobbyists. I think Douglas Adams said something to the effect of
"To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who most want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting elected President should on no account be allowed to do the job. To summarize the summary of the summary: people are a problem."
The old saying of "when guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns" is more true today than years ago when it was first spoken.
This is not a threat to gun ownership, but an attempt to monitor the sale and transfer of guns. It's similar to the paper trail of owning a car. People that own guns respect laws and the importance of gun safety, so this shouldn't be considered a step in the wrong direction. Some faith in the fact that Obama has good intentions and respects gun ownership would go a long way here.

I pray the Supreme Court wouldn't allow this. However if that court becomes liberal it is more than feasible.
