And of course they make sure that they get in the article, that the expiration of the assault weapons ban is to blame for the increase in violence.. what else could it possibly be from?? No one had an assault weapon until after the expiration in 04' right?

And yet they're used in less then 1% of all crime in this country. The same percentages as before that same ban they speak of.

Gun control has little to do with controlling guns and everything to do about controlling citizens.

Frankly, I like to see these reports come out. I think that they serve to remind the complacent that the gun grabbers may be staying out of the spotlight until after the election, but they are still there. They blame gun control for the loss of an election or two.
