1. Can you define for everyone what an "assault weapon" is?
2. I don't hunt. Therefore the hunting utility of any firearm is utterly
irrelevant to me.
3. Why does anyone "need" to HUNT?
4. In fact, it's perfectly legal to hunt using a Kalashnikov or an AR15,
so long
as you follow the applicable game laws of your state. In fact, AR15s are
extremely popular as varmint rifles.
5. If there's no physical danger to taking away the vote (or any other
right),
then it's much more likely that that right WILL be taken away...

People also shoot for gun, and for practice for self-defense. You don't
seem to
be able to actually explain why I shouldn't have an AR15. People vote to
make
decisions that they don't necessarily understand, or which don't accord
with the
teaching of the prophet... or at least that's what Abu Musab al Zarqawi
says.
Your argument for me not having an AR15 is certainly no better than al
Zarqawi's
argument for me not being able to vote.

Hunting people who are illegally in a foreign country to spy, destroy
things and
murder people isn't generally considered "sociopathic"... except by the
perpetrators. I'm sure that Kim Jong Il certainly objects to people who
impede
the operations of the DPRK Army Light Infantry Brigades.
But again, the last thing I hunted was North Koreans. The hunting utility
of a
firearm is utterly irrelevant to me.

It it's not dangerous to take your vote, then there's little disencentive
to do
so.
