This week, two Democrats representing Florida on Capitol Hill brought out gun control measures.
U.S. Rep. Val Demings, D-Fla., brought out the “Law Enforcement Protection Act” which would expand background checks on “armor-piercing, concealable weapons.”
The congresswoman’s office offered some of the details on the bill on Wednesday.
“The Law Enforcement Protection Act would add armor-piercing, concealable weapons as a category under the National Firearms Act (NFA). |

This man obviously knows nothing about firearms other than hating them.
There is no such thing as “armor-piercing, concealable weapons.”
Ammunition is armor-piercing; the firearms are not.
A deer rifle can chamber armor-piercing ammunition. In fact, most rifle calibers will pierce body armor. Does that make a Winchester 94 an “armor-piercing” weapon? A typical handgun can chamber armor-piercing ammunition. Does that make a Beretta 92FS an “armor-piercing, concealable weapon?”
This kind of idiocy passes for “good governance” in Democrat/liberal circles and the MSM.
But it is just that; idiocy. And not only should it not be introduced into the legislature for consideration, it shouldn’t be considered by anybody at all. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
