"Assault weapons "are the weapons of gangs, drug lords and sick people," Mauser said before his three-block march to the convention, which runs through Sunday. "It is a weapon of war and we don't want this war on our streets."

"Democratic presidential hopeful John Kerry issued a statement before Cheney's address, saying "most voters don't know that (Bush and Cheney) are standing against major police organizations and breaking their promise to renew the assault weapons ban -- which helps keep military-style assault weapons out of the hands of criminals and terrorists."

Interesting press of late. This story is similar to the story of the Korean children who questioned Cheney last week if he had ever been to war.

I'm glad to see stories of people opposing the administration in these ways getting some print action.
