The leftist gun grabbers in the House of Representatives have introduced the latest and greatest incarnation of their recycled, already tried and proven ineffective “assault weapon” ban – HR 5087.
Rather than rehashing everything I already said on Twitter, I’m going the lazy route and just going to plop down the tweets right here.
So, the “assault weapon” ban has been proposed in the house, HR 5087 (https://t.co/IU0VNlc7sR)
This time it does not even exclude rimfire calibers. In fact, they specifically name at least one .22LR rifle.

In fact, the definitions are so loose, it includes a large number of rifles that the average person would not remotely consider an “assault weapon” — Deputy Matt (@BangSwitchMatt) March 4, 2018
As it is written, it would even ban the Beretta 92 handgun and at minimum the Glock 17, if not all Glock pistols.

Of course, it still includes such noteworthy, super ultra deadly devices as a “barrel shroud” and the often used in crime “rocket launchers.” As a cop, it is very reassuring that they are finally addressing the huge increase in rocket launcher attacks…. — Deputy Matt (@BangSwitchMatt) March 4, 2018
And thank God they threw in the “threaded barrel” because damn, threaded barrels just make everything so much worse. I mean, those threads on the outside of the muzzle end of a barrel, you just don’t know what that does to the bullets as they come out… super deadly!

I’m glad to see our lawmakers are finally, again, doing the same exact thing that has previously proven to make no statistical difference, you know, for the children. What is that definition of insanity? — Deputy Matt (@BangSwitchMatt) March 4, 2018
Hows about you idiot lawmakers actually worry about doing something that will actually make a difference?
Outlawing guns is not going to make a difference. We know this because it has already been tried and did nothing.
Instead, why not try something thats been proven to work?

Secure our schools. Put armed guards on campus. Arm teachers and other staff. It works in Israel. It works in parts of our country. You know what doesn’t work? Gun bans. Columbine happened in 1999. Right in the middle of the last “assault weapon” ban. — Deputy Matt (@BangSwitchMatt) March 4, 2018
