The people that actually need the guns will still have them (police, swat, military). And we can make a special license for 2 shot rifles for hunting.
The Iraqis are not Americans. We have demonstrated our ability to repel an organized military before...
Not against any kind of modern, organized military. The past trials that our people have faced are meaningless today. Just my two cents.
