http://www.ontheissues.org/Domestic/Bernie_Sanders_Gun_Control.htm"Voted YES on banning high-capacity magazines of over 10 bullets."
Weasel words "high-capacity" and "large capacity". In reality, standard capacity for most semi-automatic guns is over 10, so banning them would infringe the human right to self-defense into oblivion.
Sanders belongs in prison, not the White House, or any other hall of government.
It's kind of a non issue, except among those who are obsessive about firearms.
You have to decide first whether you want to have some line drawn on which weapons an individual can easily purchase, and then if applicable where to have the line.
Some people might think no line should be drawn. If a person wants a very heavy fully automatic military style gun they would say fine. A rocket launcher. Missiles. Whatever.
At the other extreme are people who say "no guns whatsoever, for anyone".
Bernie Sanders looks to be in the middle on this issue. You think he's too far in the middle though?
"Obsessive about firearms?" What the fuck? Do you give zero fucks about keeping yourself and your fellow victimless human beings alive, let alone safe from criminal harm?
Slippery slope bullshit irrelevant to individual self-defense, needs no refutation.
The "middle"? What the fuck? The line was drawn and he crossed it by googolplex light years, by voting to ban the most common component required for function of the modern quintessential human right to self-defense tool, the semi-automatic firearm, out of ONLY mentally-sound, sober law-abiders' hands. You cannot get more pro-criminal than that, short of banning the the modern quintessential human right to self-defense tool in its entirety (again, out of ONLY mentally-sound, sober law-abiders' hands)!
Welcome to my ignore list.
I feel like if you get a background check you should be able to have basically whatever magazine capacity as long as its not insane.
Unfortunately the background check system is rife with false positives, system crashes and delays, all of which only infringe mentally-sound, sober law-abiders out of their human right to self-defense, and do not deter a single victimful criminal, who is not subject to background checks.
And if we allow emotional weasel-words like "insane" to infringe human rights, then the criminal safety advocates running government will determine it's "insane" to allow only mentally-sound, sober law-abiders to have magazines with more than 1 round, or any lawful firearm ownership, at all. And the courts, part of government, will rubber-stamp that infringement until the cows come home.
All functional magazines shall not be infringed. All jammomatic magazines should be recalled by their manufacturers and replaced or refunded.
