What Should Be Legal - Pot or Assault Weapons?

We as a nation have embraced VIOLENCE for far to long - it reeks from our movies, our books, and the way people treat each other, even on Capitol Hill.

We need to make some changes - including mass anger management. We live in a nation where smoking pot is illegal and owning an assault rifle is legal. It should be the other way around. Marijuana has proven medicinal qualities which alleviates pain in patients. Assault weapons only produce pain.

People should not be able to possess offensive weapons and 30 bullet clips. If you want those, join our military where it belongs.

I agree with this writer who says: "There are, however, some gun control laws that could be strengthened. the so-called gun-show loophole (which is not a loophole at all -- 40 percent of all guns sold in America legally are sold without benefit of a federal background check) should be closed."
