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

I wont flame you. I suggest that you go and read the history of the 2nd Amendment. I suggest that you read the Founders views on people owning arms.
Above all, the Founders wanted the citizens to be well armed in order to overthrow the Federal government if it became tyrannical.
Our Founders would have absolutely no issue with citizens owning so called assault weapons.
It is depressing that someone would even need to ask. It’s like asking why would banning the internet really be bad, since we still have newspapers for the 1st.
SSDD. She has to do this because it keeps her queer constituents slobbering. Job security. Even she knows it doesn’t have to pass to keep her relevant in their eyes.
Good, I thought you were more cognizant than to take agencies of or 'government for the people' at their word.
“... Senator Ive worked hard for that title Dianne Feinstein.”
That was Babs Boxer.
Did you go to the link and actually read the article?
I think I'll get mine refinished like this, so it's not a "Bad Black Gun".
How much do you wanna bet that during these second background checks, they’ll conveniently find something in your background that disqualifies you?
Some of those parts remind me of the old fashioned hair rollers.
.
Here’s the problem with outlawing semi-automatic rifles and magazines. The Founders put the 2A in the Bill of Rights because they wanted “the people” to be better armed than “the army.” We had just fought Britain because THEY wanted to disarm us. Where the army is better armed than the people, (see Soviet Russia, Communist China() there is tyranny. Where the people are better armed than the government, there is freedom. Perhaps you think the Federal Government should be our lords and masters and take our arms from us?
If the American Spring started up you know they would fire up those lawn mowers to break up the Tea Party
Every friday at 2:30 pm one or two Apaches fly over downtown Los Angeles for some reason
B-L-O-W—M-E you wanton pompous self-centered uppity shrew.
Well, long time ago when in the army back in the days of few black belts I had my fingers,palms, toes, feet, knee caps, forehead( yep) AND elbows printed. Don't know if they were serious to this day or they just wanted to make me wipe off all the black ink! There was a lot of laughter but now, hmmm I would wonder about intentions.
Why should we allow government bureaucrats to decide who can own “assault” guns or whatever? You like democrats are for empowering government while at the same time dis-empowering the individual when the individual is small and the government is already so huge and powerful. You want to turn the U.S.A into a communist nation because the media reports on some stupid mass shooting. the threat is the media and the government not our gun rights , not our freedom , not responsible gun owners who have the right to defend their home against criminals and to have assault guns to defend against a tyranical government.
You liberals are letting the frickin media control you and brainwash you.
Thousands if not millions of Americans have been tortured, murdered and raped because they didn't have a gun to protect themselves.
Each year Thousands die in the U.S.A from just falling down. The killings from mass shootings are statistically non-existant in a country of 300 million. Millions die from heart disease. Thousands of victims of rape and murder not from guns but things like baseball bats.
Also the media is what causes the mass shooters to shoot to w seek fame and to become the next star in their sick minds. The media makes these mass shooters world famous and household names when they can report them it but don't have to identify them in order to not cause copy cats but they do so knowingly.
in order to qualify to be a politician you must be a silver spoon popular dork with a soft belly and pudgy fingers, with no real life experience at suffering , very few exceptions to that rule
“The Democrats and the communists are running scared. And they need be! Some Americans are getting real damn mad.”
Democrats and communists is a bit redundant.
Obviously they’re scared: they read the news as well and know that those big, nasty black guns can’t be purchased anymore. Because every single one has been snapped up by eager buyers!
They prefer their peasantry to be unarmed.
I know what you mean. I had to check thoroughly before I believed it was real.
“Perhaps you think the Federal Government should be our lords and masters and take our arms from us?”
Yes he does and so do other liberals/democrats. They don’t have a clue to how the media is manipulating them.
Will the GOP fight it? That is the question.
