Feinstein Promises Assault Weapons Ban Hours After House Passes Background Check Bill

[Asavage270]

Is this a proposed federal mandate or for a specific state?

 

[RVTECH]

It is not the Feinstein administration.

I realize this.

I was just suggesting an answer the pro Biden types might use.

 

[Rkangel]

It makes total sense to me. The party in power fully expects to lose the majority in the midterms. So they are going all in to ram in the stuff they had long wanted. After watching this hoax work so well for a year why would they not? Of course this will pass and get signed into law.
Obama rarely said anything I agreed with. He said elections have consequences. On that he was right on the money. They do. This is what people asked for, so now they get to enjoy it.

Elections have consequences. Dishonest elections have even worse consequences.

Both have logged in this week. They must be waiting until they have our undivided attention.

They may be able to login but they will not be able to speak their drivel to me as they both along with the OP of that other thread are on my ignore list. (200+ & climbing)...
It's sad that these people are gun owners that are willing to throw everybody under the bus because they hated Trump so badly...

So you are saying that they would have been much happier with Hillary in office?

 

[Lennie]

One other very dangerous item in her bill is the banning of firearms with threaded muzzles. An obvious attempt to ban suppressors using a back door attack.

 

[chukar]

Does this pig have a sunset clause in it like the 1994 did?

Also, do these assclowns realize that there is no definitive proof that the '94 ban was effective in stoping gun violence and mass shootings?

 

[CRBMoA]

Assclowns don't care, just like Honey Badger.

They can't have Heaven On Earth until they take away our arms.

I am saying that it didn't matter who the body was as long as it had a D behind its name.
That's how they are, party line voting lemmings no matter what the cretins are preaching for votes.

Oh and for the record, this new generation of political hacks are not Democrats, they are progressive socialist/communist.

said Senator Feinstein. "To be clear, this bill saves lives. When it was in place from 1994-2004, gun massacres declined by 37 percent compared with the decade before. After the ban expired, the number of massacres rose by 183 percent.

Where did she get these numbers?

I don't remember ever seeing any before and after percentages with regard to the 94 AWB.

So I have a Ruger American in .22LR, takes detachable magazines and is threaded.

Guess I'm going to be a criminal for it.

Who let the dogs out???? Someone call?

They know a red tidal wave is coming...but how big do they want that wave to be? ALOT of congress critters lost their seats after voting to support the '94 AWB...how much of a R majority do they want to give in the House/Senate? A super majority? And if they do, could they not repeal this thing?

Let's not forget the MILLIONS of new gun owners out there too...hopefully more than a couple have had an epiphany or three...

And the 10 year sunset was a main driver of what got the '94 farce across the finish line...

ETA: 'Grandfathering' the great placating/divide & conquer tactic...

Violent crime declined in general over that decade, and that was a trend, not correlated to the AWB.

The same place most pols get their numbers, from the Humpty Dumpty school of thought.

"When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.'
'The question is,' said Alice, 'whether you can make words mean so many different things.'
'The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, 'which is to be master — that's all."

The 10/22 will be an assault weapon but the M1 Garand would not. I mean, it did a pretty good job of killing Germans and Japanese in *ahem* beach assaults but by reading her definition it sounds a-ok.

They don't know what they're talking about an they don't care. They just want you to turn em all in Mr and Mrs America.

Oh and the "barrel shroud" is back. Whatever that is.

 

[1371JarHead]

Pheew, sure glad I don't own any "Military Style Assault Weapons" We got a couple ar 15s is all. Do you think my Swede Mauser and Lee Enfield SMLE going to be a problem? Technically they are military style weapons?

I wonder if that woman has mirrors in her house? Sheesh.

Will they be coming for my 90 yr old Mosins..it does hold 10 rounds in the mag/clip thingy ...

First thing my statistics teacher told the class - 89% of all quoted statistics are made up on the spot - prove me wrong. According to the FBI and CDC there was no statistical difference before during or after the ban. Ficklestein is an ardent beliver of 'throw enough $41t on the wall - some will stick' type of politics. Dumber than a mud fence and more dangerous than a swarm of killer bees.

 

[Boss]

Suggest moving this to someplace with more traffic/exposure. This isn't 'little news' and more members need to be made aware of it.
