We need to enforce the laws we have on the books before we go looking for new ones.  I wouldn't consider myself either a radical gun rights advocate, and certainly not an advocate of gun control per se.  That being said, I do believe that the government has a responsibility to place some reasonable limits on gun use and posession.  We have to strike the necessary balance of ensuring that law-abiding citizens can excersize their responsibility to protect themselves, while keeping some level of control over the distribution of firearms to gang, drug, and other criminal activities.

no, we need to repeal the existing ones.

Some of them.

I'd start with that horrible piece, the Firearm Owners "Protection" Act of 1986.

I support the Second Amendment.  Americans have the right to own guns, and that right cannot be abridged.  However, I simply do not see the need to legally sell assault weapons. 

WHat is it, it can be abridged or not?
