They also left out a dangerous accessory: chain saw bayonets, which can be adapted for virtually any weapon. How are we supposed to feel safe when such a dangerous loophole exists?

I'm always amazed at the lack of knowledge and insight that most authors and supporters of gun control bills have about the subject matter.
Most seem to have no experience guns and ammunition and have little factual knowledge about the gun/ammo industries or the 2nd amendment.

You might think that they would invest a weekend or two boning up on the subject before plunging into the deep end.

Here is a woman proposing a law restricting magazine capacities - but she is so poorly informed that she thinks gun magazines
are like birth control pill dispensers - you use the contents one by one then toss the empty container away.

“People have been caught printing lower receivers for AR-15s,....”

Huh? Perfectly legal to make your own “lower”. Just be careful who the “owner” is.

George Moscone and Harvey Milk are dead. Dan White is dead. What really happened, shortly after Thanksgiving, 1978, is that one bunch of democrats backed another democrat, whose political opinions and Catholic faith they would not tolerate, into a corner and forced him to resign from the SF Board of Supervisors. The guy snapped and killed two of his tormentors. Those assassinations made the political career if Diane Feinstein. 39 years later she is still attacking the freedoms of the American people. I suspect that guilt over her role in the whole thing is a large part of what motivates her "anti-gun" zeal.

Maybe what we really need is a law against democrats eating their own.

The most troubling aspect of this piece of legislation: the number of very specific gun makes and models that are listed. Two hundred and five to be matter-of-fact.....If this piece of legislation were to pass — which is very, very unlikely — firearms manufacturers could have a class action lawsuit on their hands. Because the Assault Weapons Ban bill lists specific makes and models, gun manufacturers could make the argument that their individual products are being targeted.

So. That hasn't stopped other states like NJ and CA from mentioning specific firearms on their "banned" list, and the courts have not come to the rescue for them. So

Ironic... if gun grabber laws are passed and enforced people with guns would have to do the gun grabbing.

“People have been caught printing lower receivers for AR-15s, as well as magazines, bump-fire stocks and grenade launchers.”


In most States it isn’t illegal to make your own firearm, and even then it is usually”blessed” if you register it. The rest is unregulated, except in the few fascist states where it is a crime to have a metal or plastic box containing a spring that is “too big” (which is a patently absurd idea, and unconstitutional.

As for the central thesis of this article, which is that the gun grabbers don’t know $hit from Shinola about guns: first, that has been obvious since the federal government started passing gun legislation in the 1930s; and, second, that doesn’t matter from their perspective, just so long as they can go to the average, uninformed blissninny (but I repeat myself) woman or metrosexual male (but I repeat myself) and claim that they are doing something about that horrible violence from those scawy people who have all of those scawy guns. Facts are irrelevant, all that matters is the emotion of the thing, since their voters are not thinkers, they just emote.

It’s only drunk driving, when there’s a drunk behind the wheel. Banning Camaros and Range Rovers won’t prevent it.
These people are beyond insane!

It’s the same bill Dianne Feinstein drafted a few years ago.

***to limit “high capacity magazines,” which holds more than 10 rounds. ***

I saw an old NCIS show not long ago that showed their firearm magazine close up. The first thing I noticed was these “government agents” were using magazines modified to 10 rounds.
