Senator DiFi Wants to 'Dry up the Supply'

The LA Times published an article about the recent introduction of the 2013 version of the AWB by DiFi (Senator Feinstein) and crew. She wants to "dry up the supply of these weapons over time." These weapons she speaks of are those black scary ARs that many of us own legally and that she refers to as assault weapons. Well that's great and all but these tools should realize that when they started talking about an new AWB more than a month ago, they increased the demand of these modern sporting rifles and at least doubled their value. They helped move these guns off the shelf of the dealers and into the hands of more Americans (a good thing in my opinion). I'm sure that's not the effect they were looking to achieve. They helped spur a rifle and ammo buying frenzy that has been really unsurpassed in recent times. Way to go dummies.

Hopefully there are enough vocal constituents and pro-gun lobbyists out there that will help kill this bill before it's even close to seeing the light of day. Then, maybe, I can finally get my hands on some ammo and those jackasses can focus on more pressing issues.

DiFi, as she is less affectionately referred to in many of the pro-gun blogs out there. Full text of this proposed crap legislation can be found on the Senator's page.
