I'm a staunch supporter of the right to own guns, whether for home defense or recreation. That doesn't mean I oppose eminently sensible gun control laws like the ban on assault rifles (as well as a more clear ban on "assault weapons"
and the bans on extended magazines.
You don't need an Uzi to defend your home. Some things should be forbidden the citizenry.
