This whole "gun control" b.s. has NOTHING to do with guns. It's just politicians trying to make you think they "care".
In reality the only thing they care about is power and money.
They know it's unconstitutional to try and take guns from Americans in any way. But they will keep fighting on BOTH sides to try and convince their constituents that they "care" about them.
Reality is IF they cared and really thought that guns were a problem, they would do what they are authorized to do.
But they won't.
That's all I'm trying to say. This is all a big farce to capture stupid people's attention and votes.
In the end, only the politicians win.

There are background checks in place now and the Supreme Court has ruled that back ground checks are within the constitution...there has been a previous 10 year ban on so called "assault weapons" and the Supreme Court has ruled that was within the constitution.
Now some want background checks to cover more sales than are currently covered and want another ban on so called "assault weapons". I don't have a real problem with either of these but the ban on "assault weapons" is nothing more than a feel good law as they are not anymore than a semi automatic rifle.
Assault weapons are used in less than one percent of all gun crimes and according to the FBI the previous ban had zero affect on gun crimes or the number of people killed.
You are right about politicians and as the song goes..."and the games people play now".
