Not accurate beyond 100 yards??  Larry you guys must have really bad
marksmanship standards in the Canadian Army if that's what you think.  We're
talking about FN-FAL, AR-15, AK-47 variants.  All in SEMI-AUTO, not full
auto.  These weapons can be very accurate.  Also they are fun as hell to
shoot.

Beyond all of that, the second amendment protects our right to arm ourselves
for defense, not hunting or target shooting.

  Fortunately given that the ban was attached to a pretty nasty bill
  indemnifying firearms makers from lawsuits, its acceptable. Its so-called
  rejection was simply a parliamentary maneuver. Also there are at least two
  other bills with amendments before congress that extends the ban.

  Besides what's the use of this sort of firearm to people. What is it
really
  good for but to kill lots of people. Its not something that you can hunt
  with - this sort of weapon is inaccurate beyond a hundred yards. All its
  good for is killing people. Better to get rid of that sort of weapon.
