Newscast Media HOUSTON, Texas—U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) today joined a broad coalition representing Congress, law enforcement, politicians and gun violence victims to announce the introduction of the Assault Weapons Ban of 2013. The bill bans dangerous military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition feeding devices capable of holding more than 10 rounds.

Interestingly enough, the loudest voices on the Conservative side resisting the bill, are the very same ones that did not vote in the past election and encouraged others not to participate in the 2012 election.

This should be a lesson to all Conservatives who refused to vote because they did not like the candidate on the GOP ticket, and instead they either stayed home, wasted their vote on Gary Johnson, or encouraged others not to vote. Even though there was voter fraud, overwhelming numbers of voters would have been enough to offset any voter fraud.

The bill bans the sale, transfer, manufacturing and importation of the following:

All semiautomatic rifles that can accept a detachable magazine and have at least one military feature: pistol grip; forward grip; folding, telescoping, or detachable stock; grenade launcher or rocket launcher; barrel shroud; or threaded barrel.
All semiautomatic pistols that can accept a detachable magazine and have at least one military feature: threaded barrel; second pistol grip; barrel shroud; capacity to accept a detachable magazine at some location outside of the pistol grip; or semiautomatic version of an automatic firearm.
All semiautomatic rifles and handguns that have a fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds.
All semiautomatic shotguns that have a folding, telescoping, or detachable stock; pistol grip; fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 5 rounds; ability to accept a detachable magazine; forward grip; grenade launcher or rocket launcher; or shotgun with a revolving cylinder.
All ammunition feeding devices (magazines, strips, and drums) capable of accepting more than 10 rounds.
