Notice that most gun related crimes are NOT remotely associated with assault weapons. Most encounters are less than five rounds. Yet a huge stick is the high capacity magazines. This looks like good reasoning and because of that, anti gun activist go around preaching that this level of weaponry is not necessary.

I have seen a generation grow up with no interaction with guns. No recreational usage. Sporting clays, the heritage of hunting, target practice. And I do not blame these people for their views. But I do strongly believe their views are inaccurate and one sided as you would expect it to be under their upbringing.
Because these traditions are being lost, it is unfortunate that at some point most innocent gun owners will loose many of their second amendment rights.


Edit:
I agree with you wholeheartedly about the restrictions on getting a gun. If you are an innocent gun owner a little inconvenience should not be something you are not willing to appease.
What does have to be kept under a tight eye is bias. This could get very complicated do to all the variable that it could entail though.
