The NRA has done more to fear monger and scaring people into wanting more restrictions for guns than any other lobbying group.  And the stupid shit wouldn't pass like 1994, that was teabaggers shitting their pants cuz someone shot one.

Of course they do. How else are they going to get these idiots to keep sending them money? It isn't in the NRA's best interest to be reasonable about guns.

Most everything is a subjective term, even the word "alive" is subjective.. even the word "dead" as one can be brain dead yet kept alive on a machine.

Democrats are the masters of tripping over unintended consequences. People who would have never thought of owning a gun are now arming themselves. Go try and find a semi-auto rifle in the gun shops. Same with some ammunition. Even law enforcement is having a tough time keeping ammo on hand.

They have little choice but to grandfather in pre-owned guns. I may go gun shopping this weekend. Help support the local economy. Obama and his minions don't realize how close they are treading towards revolution in this country.

Reasonable is also a legal term.
"Reasonable doubt","reasonable suspicion" ,etc.
It`s not a weasel word there for people to abuse or misuse.

Any proof to back up your assertion?

reasonable adj., adv. in law, just, rational, appropriate, ordinary or usual in the circumstances. It may refer to care, cause, compensation, doubt (in a criminal trial), and a host of other actions or activities.

And, in the medical world, can't "brain dead" be reason enough for allowing the plug to be pulled without ethical considerations?

Recall the maelstrom that surrounded the Terri Schiavo case? Can you not see how Government being in charge of making up their mind about the precise definition of a subjective term should scare the shit out of people who believe in Liberty and Freedom of choice?

Dead and brain dead are not the same word. "dead" , as in deceased only means one thing.

FR.

Tommy guns. She wants to ban tommy guns. How many people have even seen one? The one I saw was in a case along with Mauser's and other guns. And none of them fired.

Seems like she just looked for scary looking guns.

Considering she is banning some weapons that do not fall into the assault weapons classification, then it looks to me like a first step to banning all guns.
