Some guns are more destructive than others, and should be regulated differently. That is my theory.

Im not sure it is even that assualt weapons are more deadly, its that they attract people to own them that shouldn't have them, they are the pit bull of guns, a pit bull isn't and worse or better than any other breed in the right hands, its just the mystic of it attracts complete morons to own them for no better reason than it makes them look tough, same with assault guns, they are bugger all good for anything outside the military therefore the desire to own one, purely because it looks 'well hard' should automatically prove the applicant is a moron and shouldn't have a gun.
