“It will take a multi-pronged strategy that includes banning the sale and ownership of assault weapons,”

Anything used to assault you is an assault weapon.

Watcha bet these "betters" have armed security and/or live in a gate community. I'd even wager they have guns at their houses for home defense.

“...aims to not only go after some types of semi-auto firearms... ...any detachable magazine capable of holding more than 10 rounds... ...they are unnecessary for protection...”

Democrat libtard logic:
1. Inanimate objects are dangerous and must be made unavailable. Abortion, which actually does massacre humans in large numbers ever single day - is OK.

2. The human pulling the trigger is never the issue. Unless he’s white, Christian, conservative or all the above.

3. If someone were to break into your home, possibly a bad guy with a gun, the most you’ll EVER need is 10 rounds and you should just call 911 anyway because the Police will be there immediately just like on TV.

I do worry a state will pass a gun law that makes it to SC.
I do not trust the current SC with the 2nd. last time it was 5-4 and Kennedy was very wobbly, he could easily have gone the other way. In this hysteria we could lose the 2nd.

The postage stamp is in complete denial. Nut and Drug control has worked so well for them.

This issue alone was enough to make me vote for Trump.

Many gun grabbers are now calling for a blanket ban on all semi-autos.

Well then, I guess I’m ready to drive to wherever to be part of a huge voice against these unConstitutional bastards.

Time for tar and feathers.

Lefty logic.
The only reason to buy an a
“assault weapon” is in order to assault someone with it.
If we “ban” all “assault weapon” than it will no longer be able to assault someone.

In Calif, those superficial items DO make the Mini-14 more deadly.

More deadly TO ME, if I get caught with them.

More a-holes thinking a new law will cure everything.

If the ban on automatic weapons succeeds that will stop all the shootings there won’t it?

If so then I have to assume that they have zero drugs in their state also since there are laws that make them illegal.

Blithering morons proving they only want to claim they are doing something.
