It's illegal to be in possession of a 30 round magazine in D.C. where the studio is located.

it wasn't a clip. It was a magazine. Not that Gregory would know the difference. He broke the law in DC, while he probably thinks he is above the law, like most liberals. It is ok for him to have a banned magazine, while making the point (however weakly) that there should be an assault weapons ban.

Fine him and throw his ass in jail. Maybe he will meet some nice people that want to take a shower with him, and then he may understand why individuals have the right to bear arms.

I don't think the problem was showing it on TV. I believe that the problem is that the possession of a 30 round magazine by anyone other than police is a series crime in DC, which is where the show was taped.

People are trying to illustrate the absurdity of these gun laws. Things like "no possession of a 30-round mag" (whether loaded, unloaded, attached to a weapon or not); or that you could be a law-abiding citizen with a legal concealed carry permit and firearm in your car, drive harmlessly through a school zone on your way home and be committing a felony. There is a two-block section of street in my town that is on indian reservation. If you were to drive through those two blocks with a firearm or a 6-pack of beer in your car, you could be arrested immediately. The gun laws are so convoluted and vary from state to state and county by county that you could be committing a crime and not even know it. This is what these laws have come to, and every single one of them is in violation of the 2nd Amendment.

So if Gregory wants more gun laws, he needs to abide by them also. He clearly broke the law by being in possession of an illegal magazine in the DC jurisdiction. Throw his butt in jail.

Mere possession of said clip is against the law in the District of Columbia.
