"Assault weapon" ban 2025 version

[Sawin]

The left literally in every sense, does NOT want the poor and minorities to own firearms and there is absolutely nothing incorrect or disingenuous about saying that. In fact you can legitimately substitute practically any group description and it’s also correct. Fortunately, it seems like a lot of the LGBTQ community are starting to care about their 2A rights and speak up in support of them. As they should!!!

As I’ve said before, if the left is really worried about the new administration and a supposed “dictator” in charge of our country, they’d better start thinking more like freedom fighters and support the second amendment! Their lives or the lives of their progeny could depend on it someday…

They don?t want the poor and minorities owning firearms.

While true, this bill has nothing to do with that. Poor people don't buy $1500 guns.

This bill is about control.

I do.



Did you not get the sarcasm?

Testimony is still going on, and many, many people pointed out that the poor and minorities would be severely impacted.

Passed first committee 7-4 along party lines with a bunch more amendments added, it has to now go through the house finance committee along with testimony. This committee vote will likely come down to a single vote vs a three vote advantage in the previous committee.

Tomorrow (Friday) the bill is going to be heard at the finance committee. From what I understand, they're far more moderate in this committee, and they will be hearing testimony.

As reported by Ian Escalante.

"Rep. Andrew Boesnecker, one of the bill sponsors, said it was ?unfortunate? that Colorado?s County Sheriffs viewed themselves as the defenders of their counties? 2nd Amendment rights!"

If you're unarmed, you are a victim
