President Trump Hasn’t “Closed the Door” on an “Assault Weapon” Ban
The Truth About Guns ^ | 02/21/18 | Robert Farago

Posted on 02/21/2018 6:13:21 AM PST by Simon Green

“White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders also told reporters that Trump hasn’t ‘closed the door’ on a potential ban of assault-style weapons and ‘hasn’t yet determined’ whether there should be a federal age limit for purchasing semi-automatic rifles.” – Other gun bans besides ‘bump stocks’?

Simple question: what about the millions of AR-15 gun owners who haven't murdered anyone? These idiot reporters shouting stupid questions need to answer a few of their own.

The 1994 Federal Assault Weapons Ban was in effect when Columbine happened.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

MS-13 is a militia. Other urban gangs are militia. They are not regulated out of existence because the right of the people to keep and bear arms has been infringed. Less likely to have such gangs (militia) where lawful citizens are able to have the same firepower as the crooks. Sadly, that right has been infringed in many cities.

Nixon went to China, and all we got is this lousy t-shirt (made in China). Seriously. Who the hell benefitted from that “opening” besides the Chicoms and Walmart?

Should legislation pass, I would anticipate that such weapons would be grandfathered.

For now.

If he were to sign on to such legislation, he would bear partial responsibility.

Bait for the idiots.

POTUS is setting them up for another fail.

Hope you folks know the POTUS's sons have shot NRA Hi Power since they were teens. POTUS is a Benefactor I believe, and has been a supporter of NRA goals.

WalMart benefits because its customers do too. They like the products and the price.

When and at what press conference did she say this? Please post the exact, original source so we can listen to the exact quote as said.

It’s all political theater. Feel free to act your part and act outraged at the idea.

This time they won't ban "features", they'll ban self loading rifles (and handguns if they can sneak the language in).
