I would vote in favor of the Assault Weapons Ban. Assault Weapons are clearly crafted for an offensive attack whereas the only purpose to bear arms under the 2nd amendment is for the self-defense of an individual, something a simple handgun can adequately accomplish.

I take it that you never heard the aphorism "The best defense is a good offense."
In any case, the AWB as it was constituted was a very silly piece of gun control legislation. About the only feature of it that made any sort of rational sense were the limits on magazine size.
I fail to see how that phrase is a viable analogy to counter my point. It's actually entirely irrelevant.
