4) You simply refuse to address the issue. One more time, we already limit the ability of citizens to defend themselves with machine guns, how is applying that same limitation to assault weapons any different?

1) It is entirely possible that your hypothetical is equally not true.
2) You can pull the ATF/Treasury statistics and define whatever you like.
3) I agree, you want them confiscated, but failing that, registered. I get it.
4) We regulate the ability of citizens to possess automatic firearms. We do not regulate the ability of citizens lawfully possessing them, from using those firearms to defend themselves. You know, just like the folks lawfully possessing your favorite firearm, the "assault weapon."
