Rep. Carolyn McCarthy’s (D-N.Y.) bill also goes further than than the assault weapon ban that expired in 2004, outlawing the sale or transfer of clips that hold more than ten rounds, even those obtained before the law takes effect, according to a copy of the bill obtained by POLITICO.

The bill closes a loophole in the expired assault weapon ban that let gun owners buy high-capacity magazines made before the ban took effect in 1994.

The bill carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison.

But when a republican uses crosshairs instead of bullseyes, that's dangerous and irresponsible. Please.

Do you have a reference to the Dems' 2004 map? I'd love to use it in some Facebook tit-for-tats I'm engaged in.

In my opinion...this would only serve to further erode our 1st amendment rights by lending credence to the idea that either party did anything wrong.

The kind of hyper-sensitivity displayed over what was clearly meant (by BOTH parties) to be a FIGURATIVE symbol is just crazy. There was nothing onerous about either the bulls-eyes or cross-hairs, they are simply widely recognized symbols used to call attention to "targeted" concerns.

How anyone could spin this into meaning it was a HIT LIST is beyond me..... and tells me we have in Washington...a certain number of people, despicable in their nature.

When will the voting public learn? Elections have consequences!

Political Correctness (PC) is largely dependant upon whose bull is being gored.
