Assault Weapon Ban to return

In his line of logic, the new US Attorney General, Eric Holder, stated that one of the aims of reinstituting the AWB is to cut the illicit flow of firearms into Mexico. So let me get this straight. Mexico won't curtail its own citizens from entering the US, but we should curtail the flow of weapons into Mexico by banning 'assault weapons,' in other words, our Rights as Citizens of this country will be infringed so that the drug cartels in Mexico will have less access to semi-automatic rifles. This is stupid. The law of supply vs. demand states that the price of an assault weapon will only increase, and for a drug cartel which sells hundreds of millions of dollars a year in drugs, will it even matter if the price of an AR-15 doubles to $2,000 each? No, it doesn't matter to them. But to the American citizen that wants that rifle, it will be illegal for him to buy one. I want that Tea Party.
