Senate ‘Assault Weapons’ Bill Bans 205 Guns, Magazines, and More

From Think Americana.com (April 10):

Democrats are dead set on infringing upon our God-given right to defend ourselves by any means necessary and the way that they best do this to us is through incrementalism.

What they do is take away just little things, one at a time until we don't even realize what happened and it's too late to do something about it.

One bill from Sen. Dianne Feinstein list 205 guns, magazines, and bump stocks, to be made illegal (even though bump stocks are illegal already).

Feinstein thinks that this would cut down on gun violence but based on a Department of Justice’s National Institute of Justice report, the 1994-2004 assault weapons ban had no effect on crime.

The bill would also include mandatory universal background checks.

According to Breitbart,

The Senate “assault weapons” ban outlaws 205 specific guns, magazines holding 11 rounds or more, and bump stocks, which are already illegal.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), the bill’s sponsor, cites alleged benefits from the 1994-2004 “assault weapons” ban in an effort to bolster the chances for passage of the new version. However, she ignores the Department of Justice’s National Institute of Justice report showing that the 1994-2004 ban could not take credit for any reduction in crime.

In addition to banning 205 different guns, “high capacity” magazines, and bump stocks, the Senate “assault weapons” ban includes a universal background check requirement for any future transfer of firearms covered by the ban.

Like the 1994-2004 ban, Feinstein’s bill defines “assault weapons” based on cosmetic features. Therefore, the legislation bans commonly owned semiautomatic rifles that take detachable magazines and “[have] one or more military characteristics including a pistol grip, a forward grip, a barrel shroud, a threaded barrel or a folding or telescoping stock.”

During the Democrat debate back in September of last year, Beto O’Rourke said proudly, “Hell yes, we’re going to take your AR-15.”

Obviously, that didn't work out for Beto too well because now he's at home sitting in front of the tv watching Ricky Gervais roast Hollywood on the Golden Globes. That's what you get when you threaten to go against the Constitution. [source]
