If you need a rifle with the power of a bushmaster to take down Bambi, seriously that isnt hunting, that is a mental disorder. No one said to ban all weapons.

I don't know the answers, seems to me, People who purchase weapons are doing so out of fear, Not many gun sales for hunting. These weapons are purchased with an intent to shoot another human being. They are in preparation of feeling threatened? Do you assault deer before shooting them, or a paper target? The reason these weapons are being purchased, that is the problem.
