I think (would need to verify) that the first thing the Third Reich did was totally outlaw guns. The Supreme Court did state that the Second Amendment did allow the individual right to bear arms. I think the Assault Weapons Ban is needed, but how enforceable is it? How enforceable are a lot of the firearms laws? For awhile they were talking about biometric triggers (only the gun owner could fire it.) Maybe technnology will help law-abiding folks vs. criminals where the law has failed.
