Man Campaigning to Ban Assault Rifles Caught Buying Assault Rifle

Mark Kelly may not yet be a household name, but he’s the better or worse half of Gabby Giffords, and together with her is the public face of Americans for Responsible Solutions, a PAC funded by a Texas lawyer to ban assault rifles.

On FOX, Kelly said, “In 1934, we banned automatic weapons. You know, I argue the semi-automatic assault weapon with a high capacity magazine is just too dangerous to be on the street where criminals and terrorists and the mentally ill can easily get them.”

Unfortunately Kelly was also caught buying one of weapons too dangerous to be in the hands of mere civilians.

Kelly reportedly bought the AR-15 and a 1911-style semi-automatic pistol at Diamondback Police Supply in Tucson, Arizona..

Some stories just speak for themselves. 2 semi-automatic weapons. Only one is he fighting to ban. Yet he brought both.

And yes I did read the story. The AR-15 he plans on turning in. But he got it from a police supply ... does he not trust the police to only sale to legal gun owners? If not, why turn it back in to police to sale again maybe?

The '34 Act doesn't ban machine guns, just highly restricts acess & imposes a high Tax that reduces the non Elite's ability to own one. He could "donate" the AR to the Cops for thier use, but "turning it in" implys destruction. Of course to gun rights violators any gun in private hands is "on the street" and therefore something to fear.

Of course this isn't a crime or a trial, so it should be moved to a more appropriate section...

Crime? Might be when a few, or in this case 1 who fights to dis-allowed your rights from you, goes out and does what he does not think you should be allowed to do.

But yea, it is more of a current news topic.

I've heard that many anti-gun bigwigs have guns, even in places like N.Y. They just don't want the peons to have them.

I do wonder at times, why the government think they are a part of the Elite's class. When we the people vote the government in to serve the people.

Some of the top guys in the anti-gun organizations have guns also.
