In January, Senator Feinstein will introduce a bill to stop the sale, transfer, importation and manufacturing of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition feeding devises.
Following is a summary of the 2013 legislation:
Bans the sale, transfer, importation, or manufacturing of:
-120 specifically-named firearms -Certain other semiautomatic rifles, handguns, shotguns that can accept a detachable magazine and have one military characteristic -Semiautomatic rifles and handguns with a fixed magazine that can accept more than 10 rounds

That is every free person’s duty.
Another point: bolt action rifles are far more dangerous in the hands of many people of western culture. Technical ingenuity in the minds of many of the same people is far more dangerous than any known conventional weapon. And don’t forget about the possibility of an America of the near future with nearly no revenues.
Good government and American freedoms are necessary. Morality is essential for good government and freedoms. Without those prerequisites, everyone would be in peril—especially the vain.
They won't have the nuts to arrest anyone for not registering a weapon because that will show their real reasoning in all it's uglyness: they want to take them. One dead citizen over something like this will enrage a lot of people and it will be "game on".
Everybody should listen to you because you know everything.
Actually I know very little; but I have studied enough history to know that our nation is in very serious danger. You can continue to call me names if it makes you feel better; but my focus remains on the current status of our nation.
You’re the only one. All the rest of us are indebted to you.
It won’t be a dead citizen, it will be a dead weapons dealer.
They have already held military exercises to root those evil people out of neighborhoods.
good grief please get a grip and leave the adolescent behavior at home.
This is a serious issue.
Yawn. The liberal fascists might as well ban the law of gravity while they are at it.
All this hag’s edicts will be ignored. Let the statist scum put forth any new law or edict — no compliance. No debate. No negotiation. Mag restrictions, private party purchase bans, scary looking gun bans, etc — all will be ignored openly, obnoxiously, flagrantly. Now what?
As if the liberal fascists gave us the right to have firearms — ha ha ha. It was never yours to give fools, what makes you think you can take it away? An individuals right to self defense in unalienable. Infringing on our God given inherent rights in such a manner by any political statist scum earns yourself a free placement on the 100 hundred heads list. So when you’re feeling froggy bring it. Until then it’s all foreplay.
It’s low lying scum indeed who exploit the deaths of innocent children, these liberal fascists and their propaganda ministry hacks, vermin of the lowest order to push an agenda to obviously ban all guns. You libby lightweights and candycane twinkle-toed does don’t even acknowledge a burden of proof for your commie desires to ban guns to stop mass killings. Where’s your evidence? What will change? It’s so blatantly obvious your anti-Constitutional bigoted agenda. Yes we know the commie playbook well, disarm citizens and next up 1st amendment, etc. You’ll have to get past the most heavily armed populace in the world first. So watcha waitin for? Let’s dance.
Treason. Nothing more, nothing less. And to think the gd b!tch is in the senate. ‘Course, that doesn’t matter much when we have a traitor in the White House.
We are close, gentlemen. We are very close to that moment the Founders warned us about.
“There is no way in hell a bill like this would ever pass and she knows it.”
What she understands, unlike the useless gop leadership, is that when you’re negotiating you start with a very hard bargaining position and “settle” for what you really thought you’d get in the first place.
The gop, if it weren’t so useless, would counter with: “we want to repeal the gun control act of 1968.” Unfortunately though, the gop will continue to cringe, cower, and capitulate. They really are the very loyal opposition when it comes to it.
"Sniper rifles" like the dragunov/svd were out, as were RPGs etc, but every household could have a fully automatic weapon for home protection. Mostly if they had "a couple," "we" didn't really care......at least the guys I was out with didn't. Who gives a turkey that Mo has 2-3 AKs in his closest? Most of us wished we could have the "real" ones back home too.
I was on an op one time and the guy asked to leave the house and go next door to his brother's house because he feared that his own house would be attacked because of our presence.....moments before he left the house he told us where he had another AK and several mags stashed and told us we would probably need them if attacked.
This was in a war torn country, without an enumerated right to bear arms, where we were facing a deadly insurgency and enemy and foe look alike and live amongst one another.....in which 4k U.S. service members lost their lives.
Now, ask yourself this - What is so scary to "them" about the American people having semi-autos in the U.S. - but not the populace, with embedded enemy fighters, having full-autos in a war zone?
When you answer that, revisit why anyone here would "need" an "assault rifle."
Put another way - Aside from the 2A explicitly stating "arms" I will also give you this......I don't have a fire extinguisher because I'm looking for a fire to break out in my home, I have it in case it does. I may not "need" it at this moment today, but I might tomorrow. Likewise, I don't have "assault weapons" because I'm looking for a revolution or pandemic chaos to break out in my country, but I have them in case it does. I may not "need" them at this moment today, but I might tomorrow.
“The gop, if it weren’t so useless, would counter with: “we want to repeal the gun control act of 1968”
Bears repeating
>>Yeah .... Obama supposedly had little chance of being re-elected too.<<
Damn good point!
Doesn’t FOPA effectively ban gun registration, except for machine guns and silencers?>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Unless there is an executive ordwer signed by the president requiring such registration. Then all the people can do is sue in the liberal fascist courts , or fight to keep their legal guns from being confiscated.This is how the country has been run for 4 years, and this method using executive order to circumvent Congress has been tried , tested and approved ( The EPA, Amnesty for Illegals, etc.).
So get ready for the EO from hell once Feinstein’s bill does not pass the House.
This is the nail in THEIR coffin.
