Legislation to ban large-capacity gun magazines like the one used in the Jan. 8 mass shooting in Tucson has been introduced in the Arizona Legislature.
The bill was introduced late Monday by Rep. Steve Farley of Tucson and 19 other Democratic lawmakers.
The legislation would generally ban magazines with more than 10 rounds. Authorities have said the Tucson shooter opened fire with a magazine that had more than 30 rounds in it before he was subdued.

America! It's about
Have a nice day Stevie. This crap ain’t going anywhere.
AZ GOP, don't be brainless! Mccain was bad enough...
Let us blame an inanimate object for the massacre.
lol
liberals and avoiding the obvious truth.
>AZ GOP, don’t be brainless! Mccain was bad enough...
Hey, as long as we’re being cruel let’s bring up Napalitano, too.
Stevie Farley and 19 other DemoRat legislators...
The left is clueless.
The criminal / insane murderer is responsible for the massacre, period. He could have used a car, a suicide vest or an illegal weapon to do his dirty deed. I suspect this is for show purposes only.....
Snowball’s chance =============>> Hell.
High cap mags >10 rounds have generally been banned in CA for many years. While it would be illegal, I could get one anytime I wanted.
You have got to be kidding me, the socialist state of NJ, one of the most unfriendly 2A states allows a 15 round magazine.
Being that this is Arizona, the front line, I have no doubt that large mags will be very useful considering what is just south of them. This bill will go NOWHERE.
you are right, the bill will go nowhere....but why do people pass asinine ligislation like this.....we will prevent all our lw abiding citizens from having those evil magazines ut all the folks who tell the law to go to hell will have them....makes sense to me.....kind of like gun control

TOTALLY gun control. But the political fight is OVER, and we won. Pelosi would not even touch it after Virginia Tech (owning the House and Senate) and then after Obama was elected...owning all 3 branches of government (as Shumer would say). The only hope for gun control now is executive fiat.
Ya, the Feds are giving AZ land to the drug cartels anyway.....no sense in being able to defend yourself......
Sounds like some Dembulbs will be finding new jobs after the next election cycle.
Why do people pass stupid laws?
______________________________
Because too many of our citizens (and subsequently those we elect) think the government is the answer for everything.
Stupid and reactionary legislation like this is what our politicrats believe to be leadership. Everytime there is any incident of national interest involving a gun there is a host of politicians suggesting restrictions on firearms.
This young man was obviously twisted and sick and did not care about gun laws. He went there to murder and frankly he would have probably killed more people if he had rented a Suburban and drove it into the crowd.
Laws only apply to those who follow the law. The lawless among us don’t care what law they violate and there are already laws against murder and assault.
