The news radio I listened to this morning kept saying rifles and shotguns, but newspaper stories say assault weapons. I haven't been able to find the specific definition of what it is they are seeking to ban but they are pushing to get something on the 2020 ballot.
Of course, there are miles of legal roadways to go before a specific definition appears on said ballot, but this is scary if they leave it as assault weapons with a detachable magazine that has the ability to take more than 10 rounds.
It's being pushed by Ban Assault Weapons Now and they're making statements such as:
“We have a gun Autobahn right now,” said Christine Leinonen, whose son, Drew, was killed at Pulse (Nightclub).
“The Second Amendment says guns should be well regulated. And we know that by banning assault weapons, that’s not going to solve every gun problem in America, but it’s a piece of the puzzle,” Leinonen (also) said.
