The "better solution" is to enforce existing laws, not create more "feel good" laws that will be ignored.
Kinda like the whole no driving whilst using cell phone law.
There's already a law preventing driving distracted...all the police had to do was enforce it.

So, yes.
I find it amusing that the same government that issued me an assault weapon to protect this country won't let me own one to protect my life/family.

You all realize that there's never been a crime commited with a legally owned machine gun?
Most semi automatic "assault guns" are quite difficult to convert to select fire or full auto fire.

Yeah I totally agree. Furthermore, the weapons soldiers carry in combat now are for the most part all semi-auto (rarely if ever is three round burst ever used). I guarantee I am a far more serious threat to the population at large with a Remington 700 bolt-action and a good optic than I am with a fully auto. If someone is going to go on a killing spree it will happen with whatever they can get there hands on, be it a gun or a chainsaw. People that go through the lengthy process of attaining firearms legally are not what the nation needs to be worried about. I buy my weapons through legal means, maintain them accordingly and have them locked up when they aren't in use (except for my daily carry weapon). If anything I am an asset to local security.

Your asset to local security are called police. We don't live by the OK Corral anymore. Walking around armed to the teeth would sooner provoke a shooting than prevent one.

This is the most ignorant statement regarding this issue.
The OK Corral involved the police shooting civilians, some of which were alleged criminals.
Read "More Guns, Less Crime", look at the stats, etc.
You have no right to police protection!
If you call 9-1-1, the police do not have to respond, end of story.
Response time in my neck of the woods is 30 minutes if I'm lucky.

Exactly, why in the hell would I wait or even make a phone call for that matter when my life is being threatened to have a guy that is likely not even close to as trained as I am in the use of firearms. It doesn't make sense. To think the government has the right to limit my ability to protect myself is bull****.

Yup, outside of New Orleans there are not too many robberies and that's because everyone in the state of Louisiana owns a weapon and Louisiana has a "shoot the intruder" law. If anyone breaks into your home you have every right to kill them in the state of Louisiana, no questions asked. In New Orleans I always carry a concealed weapon. If all the law abiding citizens carried them how many robberies do you think there would be? Not many.
