New York of course..... It must be something in the water in that state.

Republican Rep. Joins with Democrats to Ban ‘Weapons of Mass Slaughter’

Rep. Pete King (R-NY) is supporting the Democrats’ “assault weapons” ban in order to get rid of what he refers to as “weapons of mass slaughter.”
The New York Daily News quoted King saying, “They are weapons of mass slaughter.” He added, “I don’t see any need for them in everyday society.”
The Democrats’ “assault weapons” ban is sponsored by Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI), and has the support of nearly 200 Democrat Representatives.
On August 14, Breitbart News reported that the “assault weapons” push became central for Democrats after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) signaled his willingness to take up gun control when the Senate reconvenes in September. McConnell said that universal background checks will probably “lead the discussion,” but he also said an “assault weapons” ban would be front and center.
King has been focused on background checks but recent events renewed his focus for an “assault weapons” bill. He said, “I think the assault weapons ban is timely now, especially in view of the shooting in El Paso and Dayton.”

Our Bill Of Rights is not a Bill Of Needs.

No surprise. Pete King was always anti-gun.

Cuomos safe act would have not passed with dumbocrat votes alone.Took a few "republican" traitors to push it through.So this is no surprise.

King must have been listening to Nancy Pelosi when she said, "These are the same weapons soldiers take into war."

Must have received a lot of money to do it.

I have no idea what Mcconnell plans are but as far as King goes this isn't news.The few republicans that have come from that area have always pulled this.I can't think of the other republican that did this,Damato?Something like that.He'd always pull the same thing.

Rino-Republican in name only.
