        @Reuters Other cities should follow the example set by Los Angeles. it's a good policy that will reduce the level of gun violence.

        @Reuters I would guess that many of those weapons were stolen by junkies, to sell to the police, to get money to buy drugs. Good plan.

        @Reuters its not an assault weapon unless its owner used it to assault someone. otherwise its just called a rifle.

        @Reuters At least they are trying. Now if they made it harder to buy them in the first place they may start to get somewhere.

        @Reuters Can the media please at least learn what an "automatic weapon" so that reports can be accurate regardless of slant or point.
