The Latest “Assault Weapon” idiocy

The Democrats want to put a 1000% tax on them.

Beyer’s definition of an “assault weapon” closely mirrors a measure that Rep. David Cicilline of Rhode Island is pushing. That bill would ban weapons with at least one military characteristic like a pistol grip or a forward grip.

This is stupid. Doesn’t this just create an after market for those items?
