Which ones are you not against?

Let's take this out of the abstract here.

I can enumerate several concrete infringements that the "Assault Weapons Ban" and other anti-Second Amendment laws have had on my Second Amendment Rights.

Can you point out any such concrete examples of how your rights have been infringed by the Patriot Act?

It is not the "Patriot Act" itself that is bad, it's the little ammendments that are attached to it. (You know, those little things that Congressmen and Senators never read when passing legislation)

Yes, the "Patriot Act" does have sunset clauses...just like those affecting the "Assault Riffle" ban. However, sunset clauses are just an easy way out of the hot box for the politicians that allowed them to go forth in the first place. What good are they if the next administration (or current one) intercede and block them from falling off the books?
