Diana Degette explanation on why a ban for high capacity mags

[Ronin13]

We need to get this asshole out of office:

"A lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals -- that they belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our cities," the president, who has called for reimposing the Assault Weapons Ban, said in a speech to the National Urban League.

Never have I wanted to see someone out of a job so badly in my entire life, and I've had some pretty terrible fellow employees in the last 13 years of my life that I've been employed.

I strongly agree that AK-47s should NOT be in the hands of criminals! I, however, am NOT a criminal, thus, I will be keeping mine. I thought we had rules forbidding CRIMINALS from possessing firearms. What? Criminals would dare to break the law?

I think the time has come for us to be reasonable too. Surely we can come to some kind of compromise here, after all we all condemn these kind of massacres and want to do everything in our power to prevent them from happening again.

I would be all in favour of agreeing to limit high capacity clips to say, ten rounds maximum, if they would agree to allow us to keep our 'assault rifles' and 'AK47s' and barrel shrouds. Who's with me?

UMMMM....NO!

Sure, you can limit my "clips" to 10 rounds, as long as the legislation clearly defines a "clip" correctly, and that definition does NOT include magazines...

Count me OUT! Every time we say YES to them, it encourages them to continue this witch hunt.

I'm in favor of keeping criminals away from guns. How about that?

There is a link on that same site to contact Ms. DeGette and communicate your thoughts on her position as I suspect she doesn't frequent this forum.

What 'head to toe protection' did he have on? From what I've heard it was a load bearing rig.
