I have two competing theories about this, and I'm not sure which one I believe more:

1.  The libs know that a winning tactic is to keep putting stuff up for votes.   Some of it passes, and even the stuff that doesn't pass makes an impact by slowly chewing away at the foundation of the 2nd amendment.

2.  The firearms manufacturing association plants these pieces of legislation to keep gun sales going......   You know Obama has sold more AR-15's than about everyone else combined......

#1 is more correct

Someone help me out here.  How did sawed off shotguns get banned but assault rifles are still legal?  I can't figure out how that ever got passed?

At the time of the NFA of 1934, it focused on sawed off shotguns (shot barreled) and sub-machineguns (tommy guns).  The news media of the time was trying to freak everyone out about gangsters and bank robbers during prohibition/great depression.  All the semi-autos stayed legal.  Actual assault rifles didn't come about until halfway through WWII.  The assault weapons were regulated in 1986.  But the look a likes were next on the list and are now being called 'assault rifles'.

yeah and thing is, that The reason for the machine gun ban back then was because of the ST Valentines day Massacre which was several years before they even passed the NFA act.
Which was about a year or two after Prohibition was repealed so the need to ban machine guns was null at the time Go figure

So a mass shooting led to a ban. Hmmmmm

technically no Prohibition lead to crime which lead to a mass shooting, which late lead to a gun ban. But correctly though it wasn't a complete ban just you had to get a stamp before owning one. Of which if you notice more laws gun laws basically have lead to more shootings, which have lead to more gun laws which have lead to more shootings.
trend?
