You don't _need_ to own an assault rifle shooting range. So you don't _need_ assault rifles. We _need_ encryption to have functioning society. Everyone needs to be able to visit their bank website, email, etc without being robbed, stalked, spied on. I am okay with being an absolutist about civilians not needing assault rifles. If we're talking about self defense and hand guns, maybe we can have a conversation, but omg what is anyone doing with an AR-15? You can say "having fun" but pretty sure anyone who's being fair would admit that's way past what anyone needs for self defense. Having one very specific sort of fun is not a need or a good justification for the damage these things do to the net safety of our society.
