In the immortal words of my grandpa:  "it is to barf".

  Can anyone
still rationally argue that every US citizen should have a constitutionally
protected right  to buy automatic weapons without a background check

With all due reslpect to your grandpa, I think the 1775 words attributed to
Franklin are more imortal:
"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety
deserve neither liberty nor safety." per
Historical Review of Pennsylvania.  Often paraphrased and modernized, the
concept remains very bit as valid today IMHO.
