Few have argued that we should ban all firearms. The argument seems to be against guns that have very little practical use for either hunting, home protection (a 12 gauge would probably be as efficient in home protection as an assault rifle), concealed carry, etc. Maybe, it is fun to use an assault weapon for target practice but it seems rather juvenile when compared with what kind of message allowing these weapons to be sold sends.
