Less than 2% of gun crimes involve "assault-rifles'. Making them illegal will change nothing. I have an AR-15 and love the fuck out of it and it has nothing to do with hunting. It's just plain fun to play with. What people keep referring to as "assault-rifles" are nothing more than semi-automatic rifles with black plastic pieces attached to them. They are by no means "military grade" as many keep claiming.
