摘要

We continue to be mired in a frantic debate about the rights of gun owners. One example should suffice to prove that the debate has become hysterical: Second Amendment supporters, alleges one prominent-but less-than-articulate-member of Congress, have become "enablers of mass murder." Special animus has been directed against so-called assault rifles. These are semi-automatic, not automatic weapons-the latter have been illegal under Federal law since the 1930s-because they require a trigger pull for every round fired. Some semi-automatic firearms, to be sure, can be fitted with large-capacity magazines, but what inspires the ire of gun control advocates seems to be their menacing look-somehow they do not appear fit for polite society. No law-abiding citizen could possibly need such a weapon, we are told-after all, how many rounds from a high-powered rifle are needed to kill a deer? We also are assured that these weapons are not well-adapted for self-defense-that only the military and the police need to have them.
