Everyone absolutely has a right and needs to own an AR. AR's are what you need when the government comes for you. Look at the history of country's that took citizens guns away, and what happened shortly after. Don't think there aren't a pile of politicians out there that want complete power. History repeats itself. Not always, but you never know. Don't want to be the one stuck without one when you need it most.

If that kid didn't have an AR, he could have easily done the same damage with a bomb.
