Feinstein To Introduce Assault Weapon Ban
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) said that she will introduce an assault weapons ban in the Senate on the first day of the next Congress in January, during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday.
Gohmert Defends Access To Assault Weapons
“Well, for the reason George Washington said a free people should be an armed people,” Gohmert said, responding to a question on why people need assault weapons. “It ensures against the tyranny of the government. If they know that the biggest army is the American people, then you don’t have the tyranny that came from King George. That is why it was put in there, that’s why once you start drawing the line, where do you stop? And that’s why it is important to not just look emotionally, our reaction, Chris, is to immediately say, ‘let’s get rid of all guns.’”
Gohmer has a point. How will we defend ourselves from the UN unless every person in the US has an assault rifle of their very own?
