   We hoplophobe's have never contradicted that argument. The only   
   argument that we have put forward is that limiting the destructive   
   power of the weapons that people can legally posses will limit the   
   damage that criminals can do. In addition, if possession of the weapon   
   is illegal, then criminals can be prosecuted _before_ they kill   
   someone. It is the same argument put forward against Iran developing   
   nuclear weapons.
