Sic title.

Filthy little weasel thinks that by pricing guns out of peoples' budgets in lieu of an outright ban, it would skirt infringement. It wouln't; it's still infringement and there's no such thing as "assault weapons".

We need real representation from people not just fighting to retain our rights, but to go on the offensive and remove all of the infringements already on the books- a complete repeal of the NFA of 1934, the GCA of 1968, the Hughes Amendment of 1986, as well as every individual state's laws. These all need to go.

This bill has a snowball's chance of being passed, but I don't care; I'm fucking sick of the malicious intent behind all of our lawmakers, and even more sick of their parasitic puppeteers. It's outright treason and nothing is being done. It's tiresome.

Whatever "assault weapons" means.

Assault weapon

Noun

1. A fictional term invented to terrify a complacent populous in order to restrict firearm rights.

2. Firearms or any other devices that are defined and vilified by any number of arbitrary features. Used by individuals who are themselves willfully ignorant of the subject matter.

Assault Rifles are select fire weapons. Civilians im the US are banned to use it. Wordsmithing it out to mean any rifle-caliber carbine is a huge leap.

That's nice, dear. Doesn't explain what "assault weapon" is, and regardless, banning select-fire weapons is a blatant violation of the second amendment.

Still waiting the 'muricans to revolt on their constitutional rights being infringed.
