These laws would have not stopped any of the recent mass shootings yet they use them as the evidence that we need these laws. So I guess I'm against how and why these laws are being made, not the laws themselves.

I understand what you're saying but that just doesn't cut it for me. It doesn't matter if these regulations would have prevented any one particular incident. Reduced clips have the potential to save lifes, especially the lives of policemen in stand-off situations. Will it ever happen? I don't know, and it doesn't matter--the fact that it might prevent a death is enough. As far as I know, there is no pressing need for larger clips. If anyone knows of one, they're welcome to post it.
The big one for me is the attempt at taking away the NRA's precious gun show loopholes. That's one I don't understand. My family used to support the NRA, until I realized they only really care about the people who sell guns. Again, can someone explain why these loopholes should exist?
I really don't see much reason to oppose any of these measures.
