Quinn pushes for assault weapons ban

Quinn pushes for assault weapons ban


My only question. What really took so long?

Once the "Assault Weapons Ban" was left to wither and die, states should have immediately re-instated it on their books. It was just a simple matter of public safety, and common sense. You really don't need a PhD to know when that ban ended, the mentally unfit, and criminals would soon obtain these weapons, and "High Capacity Magazines". If the military only uses 10, 20, and sometimes 30 round clips, what on earth would make a civilian person with minimum training, think 100 round magazines is a good idea?

When anyone has never served in the military, or law enforcement, why should any sane, rational person heed anything they utter? When the "Super-Ignorant" muse that if patrons in a Pitch Black Theater were "Armed" the outcome may have been "Different?"!!! How in hell is that a sane good idea? It isn't. It never was. And you can always bet, it never will be.

So what took so long for this idea to finally come around? Fear. Fear of the National Rifle Association (NRA), and how they have manipulated its members by spreading lies. Well, the fear is beginning to subside. The members are awakening from the coma-inducing lie factory of the NRA. Criminals, and the mentally unstable have no constitutional rights under the Second Amendment.

The NRA members think the leadership of this association are becoming unstable when they advocate the "Terrorist" have a right to arm themselves". Yes folks, the NRA supports anyone on the "Terrorist Watch List" to own a gun. That's more than enough for me to never support them. Hell! I even served in the military, and once worked for the Chicago Police Departments Central Booking Section. That's a heads-up for you dolts that may consider calling me a "Liberal". I'm not.  I'm that rare breed, aptly named a "Moderate". So speaking from a little experience. What in the hell do I need a 100 round magazine for?
