Different arms

Those National Rifle Association members and others who claim the Second Amendment protects their right to own guns fail to realize that when that amendment was written AK-47s were not yet invented. The main weapon in the 1700s was a single-shot rifle.

If Richard Poplawski had not been able to buy an AK-47, we wouldn't have had the deaths of three dedicated police officers. I can't wait to hear what his defense attorney will be saying to try to excuse his behavior.
