Personally I don't see the need for a homeowner to have an AK-47, or a military grade weapon. But if you are going to allow people to own this maybe they should go through some sort of training, and I'm not talking about a hour seminar. I'm talking 6 month bootcamp training.
There are more restrictions on getting a drivers license than there are owning a firearm.

Yeah, it does stink of big brother. We already maintain databases of people who can legally drive cars, why not just expand that list?
I don't see the need for anyone to own an assault rifle. It blows me away that I am allowed to have an AR15 which is really the same exact rifle I trained with in the Marines. Stunning.
