The lady sponsored legislation (which, obviously, a lot of other Senators
and Congressmen supported - it passed, you know) to ban assault weapons.

Are you such a bad shot that you need an assault rifle to defend
yourself IN your home? A simple 12-gauge will do the job just fine, and
no one is trying to ban shotguns, not even the most virulent anti-gun
partisans. You don't need an assault rifle. There is no possible reason
for someone to keep an assault rifle in one's house, unless you're
planning to go shoot up a MacDonald's in your neighborhood. Are you?
