MADISON –Today, Representative Subeck (D-Madison), along with Representatives Terese Berceau, Melissa Sargent and Chris Taylor, circulated an Assembly bill that would ban the transportation, purchase, possession, or transfer of semiautomatic assault weapons in Wisconsin.
“Our nation has watched as community after community has had to confront the tragedies that occur when weapons designed to kill large numbers of people quickly get into the hands of a dangerous person,†said Representative Lisa Subeck. “No Wisconsin community should ever have to face such a tragedy at the hands of someone armed with a semiautomatic assault weapon.â€
Semiautomatic assault weapons are a class of firearms that are designed to kill large numbers of people quickly. They have been used in many high-profile shooting incidents, including the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut; the 2012 Aurora, Colorado movie theater shooting; the 1999 Columbine High School massacre in that state; and the 1993 office shooting at the 101 California Street building in San Francisco.
“I can conceive of no legitimate reason that any citizen should need to own or use a semiautomatic assault weapon,†said Rep. Subeck.
A review of mass shootings between January 2009 and January 2013 by Mayors Against Illegal Guns found that incidents where assault weapons were used resulted in 135% more people shot and 57% more killed, compared to other mass shootings.
“Wisconsin families want to know that they and their children are safe whether they are home, at school, at work, or out in the community,†said Rep. Subeck. “This bill is one of several critical reforms needed to eliminate gun violence in our state.â€

It should be allowedto get traction in the Legislature.
In VA the Dems killed their own chances at a state senate majority by pushing hard for gun control. Nothing motivates gun owners to vote more than Progressives trying to take their guns away.
There are a LOT of hunters/sportsmen and other gun owners in Wisconsin. If it goes far enough it’ll end up with VA, the recalls in Colorado, Gore losing TN and WV in 2000 and other examples of how gun control is a political 3rd rail for Democrats.
Eight home invaders. Revolver the answer?
I checked. They're all already on the Wisconsin target disk CD.
Example of actual assault weapon:
I think it was New York for semi-auto registration, and Connecticut for high-capacity mags.
Non-compliance was massive.

Sure sounds like somebody is possessed. Typical load of manure in the thing on her website. Looks like it’s straight out of the guide for anti gun messaging:

Now I remember who/what it was; thanks.
