        Look at you, stockpiling assault weapons like that.  And only a child-hating monster cares the slightest about how a gun law actually works, or questions anything about them because THE CHILDREN.

Well, see, now, if the people proposing the laws either knew anything about guns we would have some reason to have hope of an intelligent discussion about this.  However, since those people believe one or more of the following:
- Gun culture must be demonized at all levels until it is destroyed
- Anything pissing off a gun owner is a good thing
- The only good gun is a destroyed gun
- Objective gun-related facts are NRA propaganda
- Gun owners don't care about children
- No gun law is unreasonable
- No gun law is ineffective
- Following the law as written is immoral and proves you hate America, children, and apple pie.
- Questioning the effectiveness of a law, ditto.
So, good luck. It's only a matter of time until you own an arsenal of high-capacity assault weapons because your magazines dare to have a capacity of more than 2 rounds.
