Gun control is an effort which most controls those guns actually needing the least control.

That should be recognized at the beginning of any dialogue on the topic.

...maybe a ban on hotdogs or at least Common Sense Weiner Control would save more lives than banning EBR'S. Think of all the people that die each year choking on food? It's far more, by a factor of around 16, than deaths from ALL rifles in the U.S. Of course, gun control never has been about saving lives, it's been ALL about herding sheep(le).
