How is this any different from stopping EVERY car on the interstate to find a small percentage of drunks? Or keeping EVERY law abiding citizen from owning an assault rifle because some tiny percentage MIGHT commit a crime with one?Stopping cars on the interstate interferes with the flow of traffic. Stopping people on sidewalks doesn't. And the semi-automatic rifles used in unlawful killings for the past 100 years are .02% of the present stock of semi-automatic rifles, whereas 20% of the people frisked are criminals of one kind or another. If 20% of semi-automatic rifles were used in mass killings, there might be a case for strictly regulating them, but we're not there yet.

Your posts on this thread ring like that of an illiterate leftist anti-Bill of Rights freak.

Your reasoning and responses are comical.
