NJ Legislators Are Idiots

So let me ask you something. With the recent Fort Dix plot uncovered where Islamic extremists had attempted to purchase automatic AK-47's, M-16's and hand grenades, what do you suppose politicians would do "so that this never happens again"?

Why they'd move to ban .50 caliber sniper rifles! Yes, it all makes sense now. Nevermind that the weapons they tried to get were .223, and 7.62mm calibers. Nevermind that fully automatic weapons are not available to the general public. Nevermind that having a hand grenade is in of itself a major crime. But NO, let's ban a rifle that had absolutely NOTHING to do with the plot.

But, we have people in the public eye who have a bit of sense:

"Gun bans will not stop a criminal intent on doing harm, because the criminal mind will always find another tool," said Scott L. Bach, president of the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. "This feel-good legislation disarms only responsible citizens and does nothing to prevent crime."

This would be like banning 18 wheeler trucks because someone crashed their Honda Civic into a school bus. Criminals won't think twice about breaking gun laws if they are thinking of injuring or killing people. So STOP TRYING TO TAKE OUR GUNS. Perhaps you don't understand the phrase "Shall Not Be Infringed". Here's a link just in case you need a bit of a helping hand.
