And then, there's this sticky thing called the U.S. Constitution -

Article 1, Section 10 (Powers of the Congress) - No state shall enter into any treaty, alliance, or confederation; grant letters of marque and reprisal; coin money; emit bills of credit; make anything but gold and silver coin a tender in payment of debts; pass any bill of attainder, ex post facto law, or law impairing the obligation of contracts, or grant any title of nobility.

Of course the two aren’t remotely similar.

The “progressives” will keep trying. Its good to note that this isn’t backed by most or by law enforcement.


They are similar. The anti-choice of lunatics at state level are always passing ludicrous legislation. Ohio just signed a law requiring an impossible medical procedure, the re-implantation of ectopic pregnancy. So the extremists are writing the laws. This gun legislation is no different than that...a pipe dream in the form of a law.

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Prohibiting sale, transport, etc., of assault firearms and certain firearm magazines; penalties. Expands the definition of "assault firearm" and prohibits any person from importing, selling, transferring, manufacturing, purchasing, possessing, or transporting an assault firearm. A violation is a Class 6 felony. The bill prohibits a dealer from selling, renting, trading, or transferring from his inventory an assault firearm to any person. The bill also prohibits a person from carrying a shotgun with a magazine that will hold more than seven rounds of the longest ammunition for which it is chambered in a public place; under existing law, this prohibition applies only in certain localities. The bill makes it a Class 1 misdemeanor to import, sell, barter, or transfer any firearm magazine designed to hold more than 10 rounds of ammunition.

You are right--what the governor described was not how the bill was drafted.
