Yes, indeed. Some of the things (targets) to prepare one to handle a firearm with skill and safety; some of the things (animals) to feed your family; some of the things (aggressors) to save lives. I consider these examples of firearms well used, bryce. Which of these do you most object to?

Here We Go: Diane Feinstein to Introduce Legislation to Ban Semi-Automatic Weapons

When Congress is back in session in January, California Democrat Diane Feinstein plans to introduce legislation to ban the import, export, manufacturing, sale and transfer of what she calls "assault weapons." Feinstein didn't get into specific detail about what weapons would be affected, after all the term "assault" is a political one and the proper name for the guns Feinstein is trying to ban is "semi-automatic," which can include both handguns and rifles. Feinstein told NBC's David Gregory yesterday that ammunition clips holding more than 10 bullets would be banned should her bill become law.
