Gun control

     Had a fun debate with my bro about thee fun topic of gun control. we both identify with opposite political parties ( he's republican, I'm Democrat, yes Christmas gatherings is always fun.) the debate became heated on the issue of ownership of high capacity magazines, and assault weapons. My brother said no regulation was needed, and to do so takes the guns out of the hands of a law abiding citizen... even if they were mentally ill. I tried to meet in the middle by suggesting that an individual would still be able to purchase an assault weapon, but to purchase high capacity magazines would require a mental evaluation with the usual criminal background check. According to my brother "that would be to invasive and infringe on the rights of the person." anyways your thoughts...
