Asked how a ban on magazines holding more than 15 rounds would be effective in reducing gun violence, DeGette said:

“I will tell you these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.”

These people wanna make laws regulating us, but they're too damn stupid to even know what they're regulating.

I hate stupid, ignorant people. Especially ones that backtrack on dumb crap they say by making it seem like their words were twisted around or misunderstood. The problem is DC is full of these exact people that can't take any responsibility for any of the stupid crap they say. Idiots.

Its ok because Feinstein is an expert and will educate them so they can pass common sense laws.

My work computer's not pulling up the actual link. Having read the above quote, I agree w/ y'all that like a lot of liberals, she's completely uneducated and ignorant regarding guns, ammo and magazines. OTOH, what if her seemingly "stupid" comment was just a "Freudian slip?" Isn't it possible her comment indicates an unspoken agenda of some on the left to also ban, or at least severely curtail the availability of, ammo. Maybe she thinks that once the ammo in a currently loaded magazine has shot, it won't be able to be reloaded becuase the ammo will have been banned by then? Sounds crazy to us, but we all know there are those on the left who would like to get read of guns by any means possible. If you can't get read of the guns, just get rid of the ammo.

These are the same people that told the rape survivors that had they had guns they would have been murdered instead of raped.

What a stupid piece of shite, this woman is!

quote:

At the same forum, DeGette also mocked a senior citizen who said the state’s new gun laws would put him at a significant disadvantage in a firefight. DeGette replied that he was lucky to live in Denver, where the police department could come to his aid “within minutes.” “You’d probably be dead anyway if they had that kind of firepower,” DeGette continued.

Wow! And this is who we allow to run this country. I mean could she get someone on her team to at least do a little reaserch before making statements like that and pushing for a mag ban!
