The NRA leadership seems to be pretty twisted. It's hard to believe that they are able to control so much legislation but it speaks to the fact that politicians are far from being about the people (or at least the ones who can be bought).

They don't even need to employ an ounce of logic because the mention of the Second Amendment seems to send nut cases into a tizzy. Surely it doesn't say they have the right to bear military style weapons.

I tire of the argument that this or that won't stop the violence. No one is claiming that laws eliminate crimes. At best, they deter some crimes and the fact that they don't stop crimes is not a reason for a law not to exist. People use the most special logic as an excuse for not doing the most simple things.

I loved listening to the gun advocate who wants to protect himself from the tyrannical government and needs his weapons, in case he has to overthrow said government, question Piers Morgan about why he's not going after handguns and knives as well. So he's complaining that losing the right to 7 plus magazines is a violation of his rights while chastising the one who wants to strip of his rights, for not wanting to completely strip him of all weapons.
