I would like to separate weapons into two categories: self-defense and hunting for civilians (rifles and handguns) which would be controlled and registered; and everything else for law enforcement and military only.

If we get to the point where we are once again scared of the French or Spanish encroaching on our territory, or we are being threatened by hostile Indian tribes (the Cherokee NC casino is only two hours from me) then I would reconsider.
