A killer with 10-10 round mags will do big time damage as well. This administration just doesn't get it!

it takes so long to reload magazines on an AR, it will save countless lives in the 15 minutes it takes the police to arrive

Obama and Biden forgot to mention that a new EO will require that all detachable magazines be secured with hardware that will require a government issued wrench and three hands to operate. Just another "right thing to do" from Obama.

Even some of the liberals know it won't stop anything.

No one should have any illusions about what was accomplished (by the ban). Assault weapons play a part in only a small percentage of crime. The provision is mainly symbolic; its virtue will be if it turns out to be, as hoped, a stepping stone to broader gun control. Washington Post

It's all symbolic to appease the idiots who don't know any better. Which is by far the majority of voters in this country.

If it saves 1 life, it is worth it.

Not true. It would, among other things, make it easier to subdue the civilian populace.
To say that's not true you would have to say that the military wouldn't be hampered by reducing the M4's capacity to 10.

I dont think any of these shooters had high capacity mags anyway.

IN any event, there are already so many in circulation that if a criminal wants one, they will get their hands on it.
