Continually nibbling at the cheese.
And a new ignorant ass speaks up from the left about guns every day.
Since most guns utilized in crimes, especially murder, in this country are stolen then why don’t we make a law against stealing guns...
Well we did, hundreds of laws are on the books making stealing guns a crime. So all of those laws stopped the gun thefts, right?
Morons and gun control just go together.
” There is absolutely no reason these deadly weapons should be easier to buy than a handgun.”
I agree, we should lower the age to buy a handgun to 18.
You are far too charitable, it is an insatiable lust for power via disarmament, not ignorance behind this bill.
I guess we need a mandatory 50-lb trigger pull requirement
So little children can’t set off that full-auto, you know.
I’m willing to entertain “resonable restrictions” on the First Amendment, especially as pertains to the MSM, and to Muslims......
Common sense gun laws would include school based hunter and gun safety, not these warmed over failed ideas

If they pull this crap while we’re armed can you imagine what they’ll do when we aren’t?
We have not done enough to tackle the epidemic of gun violence Americans experience on our streets, in our movie theatres, and at our schools, Brown said in a statement. There is bipartisan support in Congress for common-sense laws that deter would-be perpetrators of gun violence from doing harm to our communities. Currently, an 18-year-old who cannot legally purchase a handgun can legally purchase a military-style assault weapon -- thats a dangerous, outdated loophole in America's gun laws. I am proud to work with Congressman Fitzpatrick to introduce this important first step to stem the violence we see across our country.
I’m all for it as soon as they raise the Voting Age to 21 with the exception of active Military Members between the ages of 18-20.
Fwiw, the current crop of NITWITS who are masquerading as “Progressive DIMocRATS” are too stupid to listen even to BILL CLINTON about what happens to DIMs when they go full-stream ahead for GUN CONTROL. = The DIMs LOSE.
They also are TOO CLUELESS to understand ANY facts about firearms and/or The 2nd Amendment, which as been “dissed” by the US Supreme Court several times since just before WWII.
Chances are that with Justice Kavanaugh being seated on the SCOTUS & (very likely) another CONSERVATIVE Justice being seated to replace RBG within a year, things aren’t looking good for the anti-gun MORONS crusade to trample citizens RIGHTS for at least a couple of generations.

Commie dem Rats are the worst but there’s one group even worse; gun grabbers who chip away at our rights which accomplishes nothing except making it harder on honest law abiding people.
In a perfect world they would be deported to Russia or China. Maybe even North Korea.
Ignorant article and I wish this argument would be retired. Again and again, we see the banners refer to “assault rifles”. Someone on our side smugly corrects them, and helpfully explains that an “assault rifle” is selectable into full-auto. Then we strut around acting like we won the debate by proving they are ignorant of hobbiest/enthusiast jargon.
To 90% of people the term “assault rifle”, describes what they see on the shelf at every sporting goods store. THOSE are what they want to ban, and it won’t matter a whit if we “educate” people into understanding that is not an “assault rifle”. They will respond “ok, you can call it whatever you please, and I still want THAT thing to be illegal”.
Normal citizens who are not shooters will not suddenly be on our side if we can make them understand this.
You cannot defend against something you cannot accurately characterize. Their war is against semi-autos and all guns. Proving that your semi-auto is not an “assault rifle” as defined by Hitler himself won’t slow down the attack on our rights one percent.
The jargon and hobbiest defense does us zero good. Might as well defend against the real direction of attack.
This is about like hearing Bloomberg complain about people drinking too many large Cokes, and smugly chuckling how ignorant he is, because you’ll drink Pepsi.
“And the fact that this bill was introduced while the industry gathered at SHOT Show wasn’t an accident. It was done by design to get a bill past 2A advocates.”
But this was a fairly astute observation she makes.
“the American College of Physicians endorsed the bill.”
