    The same Democrat party that is suing (along with the ACLU) to force the
    Trump Administration to bring back Tren de Aragua and MS-13 criminal
    gang members from El Salvador and force them to not deport the gangs
    that are embedded here are doing a full court press to disarm law
    abiding American citizens to put the imported terrorist gangs in the
    same advantageous position they hold in Latin America over their
    disarmed populations.

    Rhode Island Democrats are pushing an “assault weapons” ban that would
    ban many rifles, shotguns, and pistols in the state.

    Rhode Island Current noted the ban, S 0359, targets “military-style” firearms and semiautomatics with cosmetic features such “as pistol
    grips, folding stocks, or threaded barrels.”

    State Sen. Gordon Rogers (R) blasted the proposed ban, saying, “Same
    gun, same round, same ammunition, but when you put a grip on it forward
    as an accessory, it becomes an assault weapon. Does that make it any
    more dangerous? No. Do we go around banning cars that have chrome rims
    and spoilers on because they look dangerous? No, we don’t.”

    While most “assault weapons” bans pushed around the country largely
    focus on firearms with detachable magazines, the text of S 0359 makes
    clear that semiautomatic firearms with fixed magazines are in S 0359’s crosshairs as well. For example, S 0359 would ban semiautomatic rifles
    with fixed magazines holding more than ten rounds and semiautomatic
    shotguns with fixed magazines holding more than six rounds.

    William Worthy, who owns Big Bear Hunting & Fishing, spoke against the
    ban, saying, “This type of a bill that would probably eliminate 60% of
    the firearms that are common here in Rhode Island, we’re all hunting,
    and we’re all sportsmen, and we enjoy going to the ranges and having a
    great time. A lot of those firearms would be made illegal.”
