Now you get into a situation of escelation. Truth is, even some law abbiding citizens don't need to have guns because they can't shoot for anything, but if military and police get to have M4 assault weapons, then that means so do citizens. May be not full auto in most cases, but still it's better to defend yourself with a similar gun than to be limited to only a hand gun, or a hunting rifle. Like I said, I know people that own guns and we have conversations about this stuff. So I'm an outsider looking in and I don't buy a lot of the B.S. they try to sell on CNN I do my own research and look at all sides before making an informed decision. As I'm sure a lot of people here do. Am I right?

I disagree, infringement means any restriction, that would include full auto.

The first thing the British did during revolutionary war and most dictators of the modern world (last 100 years or so) was to take firearms and/or gunpowder from the citizens. A disarmed society is a vulnerable one.

Very true. good point. But unfortunately the masses have spoken on that one and there isn't a lot we can do about that. Unless you're willing to pay about 25-30K for a full auto that's a pre ban, or so I have been told. My buddies keep hounding me about owning a gun so I have done quite a bit of research on the topic. I'm still undecided but I like the fact that I have a choice.
