Wayne LaPierre, speaking personally, is not my favorite person, I never really cared for his "background checks for everyone, no exceptions", but that’s what we ended up with, and the sky hasn't fallen, in-so-far as one might notice.
That having been said, and again referencing the January 2012 issue of American Rifleman, I submit that LaPierr's piece therein, Standing Guard, Obama Steals Power makes interesting reading. Lest I forget, the president’s column headed The Importance of the 2012 Election is interesting too.
In conclusion, the following also seems worthy of mention, an article titled Suppressors, Good For Our Hearing And The Shooting Sports. Suppressors aka "silencers" being NFA items, require the same routines for legal purchase/possession as do machineguns, reams and reams of paperwork, long waits and the payment of a $200 Transfer Tax. Additionally, the restrictions in the law contribute mightily to what I suspect are the high prices of suppressors.
Interestingly, re the way these devices are treated, was there ever any documented criminal use of such devices. If it turns out that there was, to what extent were suppressors used in crime, by the way, I reference documented instances, rather than anecdotal instances. Another thing for readers to think
