re: #105 Eclectic Cyborg
If you try to take AR-15s from folks who already have them people will die.
Banning them going forward will be difficult enough. Confiscating ones that are already out there will result in a shitload of bad press and anti-Dem sentiment, in addition the previously mentioned high risk of government employees getting killed.
This is a road Democrats can not afford to go down right now.
What about other gun-control measures. Say, universal background checks.
