As Twitchy told you, Sen. Dianne Feinstein in all of her ultimate wisdom, has introduced an Assault Weapons Ban for 2019 which will likely go nowhere but hey, at least she can pretend she did something about gun violence and her vapid base will lap it up.
Americans across the nation are asking Congress to reinstate the federal ban on military-style assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. If we’re going to put a stop to mass shootings and protect our children, we need to get these weapons of war off our streets.

Some of our NRA favorites had a thing or FIVE to say about DiFi’s legislation.
Like Cam Edwards:
Same lawmakers who don’t think a building a wall will reduce illegal immigration think banning guns will make them disappear. https://t.co/GZ5uEBdmFX

They’re also trying to convince Americans that we shouldn’t build a border wall because illegal immigrants will just dig tunnels anyway.
Don’t make that face, we make fun of them for saying that.
We know, it’s dumb.
Dana Loesch also chimed in:
What classifies something as an “assault weapon” is none of the things described here. More accurately, it would be any rifle that has select fire capability, meaning a rifle that switches between semi-auto, 3 round burst, or full auto. You description is purely cosmetic. https://t.co/8QS5KGnvAP

Of course DiFi’s description is purely cosmetic, she’s absolutely clueless about firearms.
I don't think they are trying to appeal to their constituent's intelligence..

Sure knows nothing about them. Count how many of the rules she's breaking in this photo. pic.twitter.com/C8HoCD3CEx

Lost in all of this detail squabbling is the simple fact that 2A was included to give citizens the means to defend against govt tyranny. That OBVIOUSLY means they intended us to have the same firearms the military uses. ALL of this should be ruled unconstitutional.

But guns are bad, m’kay?
No mention of the dreaded chainsaw bayonet, will no one think of the children ?

Better named the “Scary-Looking Guns Ban of 2019”
— mendicus (@RussellDawn1) January 10, 2019
Purely cosmetic and designed to cover as many weapons as possible.

Bingo.
Big and vague and totally overreaching.
Which is really any and all legislation suggested by our friends on the Left.
