Do you think our founding fathers would have looked at an assault rifle that can fire at a speed of 400 rounds a minute and said: "Oh yeah, that's a good thing to have around the house"? Or "Everybody should have one"?

You betcha!

The uninformed author is describing a fully automatic weapon, which is already not legal to own.

"Everybody should have one"?

Methinks they would have preferred TWO.

I think our founding fathers would have been very pleased.

Yep according to what was said by them during the process of writing it they wanted us to have the same firepower as our government so our government could not enslave us.I think the left would be mortified to hear what he founding fathers would say about their ideas.
