David Gregory, a host of Meet the Press on MSNBC, was seen on this past edition of Meet the Press, using a real 30 round USGI aluminum M16 Magazine as a prop, for an argument to ban high capacity magazines.
David makes his case saying someone with a 10 round magazine will cause less carnage and that's "common sense"
What I find puzzling is, does fewer children killed really change the situation? Will it be easier to bury those children that were within the exception? Will it be easier to explain the situation to the parents of the victims if it was only 10 children compared to 30 (assuming that every round struck and killed a child)?
Have these loony leftists never heard of such a thing as reloading? Mag changes can be made within a fraction of a second if the person has practiced mag reloads, how many people can run away and get to cover that fast?
Why not come out and reveal your grand master plan to outright ban all firearms instead of hiding behind half baked proposals of "lessening the carnage"?
David, and MSNBC as a whole failed to realize that it is a crime to possess a 30 round magazine in the District of Columbia without being law enforcement or military.
The punishment is 1 year in jail and 1,000 dollars in fines.
MSNBC contacted the DCPD about this and was told the above, yet carried on with the filming anyways.
I really do hope David Gregory gets the punishment and realizes what kind of things people subjected to his proposed ban will have to go through. Ordinary citizens who are not criminals under current law, but would be if a high cap mag ban was instituted.
