1. Didn't Hillary Clinton work for Proxmire for awhile? Maybe it was some other gun-grabber.

2. True "assault weapons"--ie., fully automatic weapons--have been forbidden to private citizens without permit since the reign of Roosevelt the 2nd and the National Firearms Act of 1934..

At least there is no further gun control legislation on the horizon that has any chance of passage.
