The 5th amendment is about the right of not having to purposely incriminate yourself in a court of law and double jeopardy laws, what does that have to do with a discussion in the white house about gun control?
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

Right. And if the law is that you cant own an assault weapon, and you do, you'll get your due process through a court trial. Simple enough.
I am very familiar with the "due process law" extended to defendants during [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFB9G1HINXI"]Moscow Show Trials.[/ame]
