The Streets Run Red With Blood!!!

OHMYGOD! Did you hear about the multiple people who went on rampages with assault weapons today!!

Oh. Right. Neither did I. Probably because it didn't happen.

Remember the Assault Weapons Ban of the Clinton era? Well if you don't please feel free to brush up on your recent history here.

Anyway, the reason I mention it at all is that the predicted disastrous consequences to it's expiration have not only failed to come to pass a year after its demise...but just about the exact opposite has actually occurred. Since the Buckeye Firearms Association has already put some effort into this topic, I'll let them tell you more:

Last year, the warnings were dire.

The Clinton Gun Ban expired on September 13, 2004, after months and months of shrill screams from gun ban extremists that the sunset would result in the rein of terror on American streets
[...]
But contrary to these and other such warnings, the Washington Times is now reporting news that should forever sink what was left of the credibility of gun ban extremists in our nation.
Of course, that last part is assuming that "gun ban extremists" need credibility. Seems to me they get by just fine with hyperbole and ad hominem attacks.
