Rep. David N. Cicilline (D-RI) and numerous Democrat colleagues in the House are pushing an “assault weapons” ban that would prohibit “high capacity” magazines and 205 different firearms.
The Providence Journal reports that Cicilline’s bill, HR 5087, “would prohibit the sale, transfer, production, and importation of semi-automatic rifles and pistols that have a magazine or can accept a magazine that can hold more than 10 bullets, and any ammunition-feeding device that can hold more than 10 bullets.”

The Left's hateful and irrational smears of law-abiding gun owners and the NRA are pathetic and transparent. They are preaching to their choir, and will only galvanize and energize gun owners.
The People are becoming eminently aware of the failures that led to this incident of mass murder, and gun control is clearly not the answer. Liberal, feel-good educational and law enforcement policy is obviously more to blame than anything else.
Most Americans don't appreciate hyper-emotional irrationality being used to bully the People and infringe on Unalienable Rights—especially when they're being talked down to by a bunch of naive children who are being manipulated by extremist demagogues. Their totalitarian hate speech is backfiring—virtually everyone can see it for the transparent propaganda that it is...
Up until the 1990’s the Marlin 60 would hold 18 rounds.
The magazine was reduced to 14 after that.
After the bolt hold open was added in 1985 it was necessary to close the bolt to get the 18th round in.
Tube magazines are part of the gun and not detachable, not covered by this proposal as far as I can tell.
18 rounds until about 1994. After 1985 when they added a bolt hold open it is necessary to close the bolt to get the 18th round in.
The magazines are not detachable.
It’s pure posturing. They’re hoping to manipulate their hoplophobic constituents and use this “effort” as a call for fundraising among the People’s Socialist Party faithful in November.
Our enemies are highly likely planning to build large amphibious forces under concealment, if they haven’t already begun.
Very good words.
The Left has become so addicted to their ideology and hate they have lost all self control and are showing their true colors. The average American is seeing these clowns as a bazaar circus act devoid of any rational behavior. With the backing of the media, they are oblivious of their true impression. These Leftist clowns have evolved into disgusting turds on the political landscape. America needs to give them a big courtesy flush this November..
“Here comes the flavor of Rhode Island.
It is a shit-hole state.”
Well one of their US Senators IS named Sheldon $hithouse!
And that's aside from the fact that almost no one, except for really really stupid liberals would comply with such a law.
Probably true, though they are betting on the come if they think gun control will end up as an election-winning issue for them.
This gun thing gets everyone involved wrapped around the axle and distracted from the real news.
Such as the executive order of 21 DEC 2017.
Such as the Nunes questions with answers due Friday, and how there are traps waiting for those who chose answers poorly.
This distraction crap seems to be working, so expect more “drills” to segue into mass shootings. We have reached the ugly stage of the Apocalypse.
“I have a 35 year old Remington Nylon 66 with a 14 round tubular magazine. A real assault rifle........if you are a very slow squirrel.”
I’ve heard that some men from Brigade 2506 went ashore at Bay of Pigs with Nylon 66’s. Work with what you gots...
You all are taking this the wrong way.
This is excellent news. All things, all policy proposals, all legislation introduced, all constitutional amendments, all public and non-public speeches by these people advance the awakening of our people.
I’m GLAD they have come this far out into the open. A lot of real Americans are still not aware of the nature of the treason party within our borders (Democrat AND Republican traitors).
These people live closely packed into cities and exclusive economic zones. They go to school with each other, work with each other, date each other, etc. They greatly overestimate their strength.
If I was in Congress, I would introduce a Second Amendment repeal amendment myself, just for the pain in would cause them to watch it go down to defeat.
We are winning. Keep your chins up, and stop worrying so much.
How many semi-autos can’t accept a magazine that hold more than 10 rounds? Have seen extended mags for a .40 Cal that stick 6” from the butt....you can extend a regular magazine until it becomes to unwieldy to use...
That’s my point. Plus,since then there is the ability to print weapons. They might not be all that durable as the real ones, but I am sure they might be just as deadly in the short term.

Still, I think we need to get out our vote big time for November. Take no chances. Show our American hearts, our reasoned thinking, our desire for good jobs, better government and true security. We need to talk to everyone we can about reviving the American dream for our children.
I also think we must make endorsing abortion as birth control, the murder of innocent helpless babies for convenience, a huge black spot on the rats.
Add in their queering of America. I know a number of people that have acquiesced to it, but really do not accept it in their hearts.
Then add using school children as political tools for their various leftist crusades - queerness, race agitation, gun grabbing.
Top it off with their love of illegal immigrants who take our childrens’ jobs.
it is a shithole tipped over and filtering into Narragansett Bay.. on a long run from a cow farm along Little Compton.
This news should do wonders for gun sales.
