| 25. The need of the average citizen. |

These are weapons designed for assaults - attacking and defending territory. The average citizen has no need for these weapons.
You do understand, I assume, that the intent of the founding fathers was to have an armed populace to either eliminate or at least counter the military power of the federal army, right?
You do understand, then, that in order for the populace to undertake this role they must necessarily be similarly armed to federal army?
Assault weapons are the weapons most likely to fulfill the need our founders had the vision to insure against.

I think .22's are much better for target practice. Cheaper and more accurate. |
