Ban Assault Rifles in California

AR-15s and AK-47s are machine guns, or assault rifles, whose sole purpose is to kill as many people in as short a time as possible. These weapons of war have no place in our communities. As we've seen time and time again, way too many times, access to these assault weapons wreak havoc in our society and innocent children and adults are killed in the places that should be the most safe and protected, such as schools. The 2nd amendment was written in 1791, a time when machine guns had not been invented yet and America was occupied by British armies. How many more children will have to die to protect an amendment that is irrelevant and outdated to today's technology? What is more important: unnecessary access to assault rifles or our country's children? If no change is made, no change will happen. Sign to ban assault weapons in California.
