They are trying to be a tyrannical government now.

Wake up everyone. We had an "assault weapon" ban for 10 years. It had no measurable effect on crime. Everyone knows this, the ban was from 1994 to 2004. The statistics collected have been analyzed and researched six ways to Sunday.

Now let that sink in. They know such a ban will be ineffective at improving public safety. Yet multiple leftists are calling for it louder and louder. Now why would they want something that they know will not work? Because it isn't about improving public safety. They want the ban because, well, they want the ban.

An "assault weapons" ban makes for a great stepping stone on their incrementalist path. When it doesn't work - as we all know it will not - they will "have to" ask for further bans - maybe all semi-autos (pistol and rifle). Lather, rinse, repeat. I am convinced their ultimate objective is complete civilian disarmament. They know they cannot get there all at once, so any step they can make towards that objective works for them. I further believe they know that before they can achieve that goal, it will come to bloodshed and open conflict. Anything they can do to reduce the effectiveness of citizen patriots also works for them.

Bolt action with internal 5 round magazine was the weapon that everyone but the US used in WWII.

Kicking Mad Maxine’s asa our of Congress — what a wonderful idea!!!! Let’s do it! Maybe Koch let fat ass all the way back to the district she doesn’t even live in. Let her take a look around and see the consequences of her “representation”. Much of that district isn’t very pretty

[faithhopecharity]

Mad Max’s district is mostly the kind of place you’d want to carry in —- and certeinky have good firearms in your home if you were so unfortunate to live there (which maxine doesn’t. She lives in a big beautiful home in a better neighborhood outside her district)

[nuconvert]

Nothing I’d like more than to kick her “a-— out of Congress”

[SecondAmendment]

> Assault weapon: Any legal gun held by a veteran, Christian, or Constitutionalist.

Unofficial FR post-of-the-day winner!

[Songcraft]

Okey-dokey.

Maxine selling out America again ...

Its becoming more apparent to SANE people that it will be far simpler to BAN LEFTISTS

[morphing libertarian]

I’d settle for kicking her to live in her district

[Deplorable American1776]

Kick your ass out of Congress is much better than banning ‘Assault Weapons’, which could be anything...including a knife, a car or an airplane that is taken over by Muzzies...

[Bommer]

I like option ‘B’

[nuconvert]

why not both?

[morphing libertarian]

you have my vote proxy

The British and Commonwealth countries used the 10 round bolt action S.M.L.E. Short Magazine Lee-Enfield

[Bullish]

How did such a blithering imbecile get elected to anything? Oh wait... Never mind.

[Lurkinanloomin]

You’re right.
Watch them want to ban them next.

[reg45]

Switzerland used the K31, a six round bolt action.

[Boomer]

I’ve got a dead stump that’s smarter and better looking than Mad Maxine. There’s nothing between her ears but evil thoughts connected to her big ass mouth.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Mad Maxine should just demand a return to the Slave and Black codes which forbade a person of color to even touch a firearm!
