By any and all measures, the ban on semi-automatic assault rifles -- along with magazines with more than 10 rounds of ammunition -- has had a positive impact in the 10 years since it was passed.

....maybe I missed something about the positive impact 10 rd. magazines have had....

HOW???

What if they had a positive impact? Would our founding fathers have wanted us to trade safety for loss of ability to defend our rights? No. They would have pursued a means of dealing with the problem that involved personal responsbility.

In other words, they wouldn't have trotted out expensive psychiatrists to help get perps off the hook. It would be an eye for an eye. Taking life would involve judicially forfeiting one's own.
