Fein-Stymied: Assault Weapons Ban Won’t Even Make It Into Final Gun Control Bill

Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif. speaks with reporters on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, March 5, 2013. Credit: AP
WASHINGTON (TheBlaze/AP) — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has decided that a proposed assault weapons ban won’t be part of a gun control bill the Senate plans to debate next month, the sponsor of the ban said Tuesday, a decision that means the ban stands little chance of survival.
Instead, Sen. Dianne Feinstein said she will be able to offer her ban on the military-style firearms as an amendment. Feinstein is all but certain to need 60 votes from the 100-member Senate to prevail, but she faces solid Republican opposition and likely defections from some moderate Democrats.
As The Atlantic puts it, “offering the assault weapons ban as an amendment means it would require its own vote — which would almost certainly fail.”
“I very much regret it,” Feinstein, D-Calif., told reporters of Reid’s decision. “I tried my best.”
Feinstein, an author of the 1994 assault weapons ban that expired after a decade, said that Reid, D-Nev., told her of the decision on Monday.
There are 53 Democrats in the Senate, plus two independents who usually vote with them. And as The Atlantic points out via Gallup, support for a measure such as Feinstein’s has waned:
An assault-type weapon was used in the December massacre at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., that revived gun control as a top issue in Washington. Banning those firearms was among the proposals President Barack Obama made in January in response to those slayings.
The assault weapons ban was the most controversial of the major proposals to restrict guns that have been advanced by Obama and Senate Democrats. Because of that, it had been expected that the assault weapons measure would be left out of the initial package the Senate considers, with Democrats hoping the Senate could therefore amass the strongest possible vote for the overall legislation.
Having a separate vote on assault weapons might free moderate Democratic senators facing re-election next year in Republican-leaning states to vote against the assault weapons measure, but then support the remaining overall package of gun curbs.
Gun control supporters consider a strong Senate vote important because the Republican-run House has shown little enthusiasm for most of Obama’s proposals.
Feinstein said Reid told her there will be two votes.
One would be on her assault weapons ban, which also includes a ban on ammunition magazines that carry more than 10 rounds of ammunition. The second would just be on prohibiting the high-capacity magazine clips.
Many Democrats think the ban on large-capacity magazines has a better chance of getting 60 votes than the assault weapons ban.
The Senate Judiciary Committee has approved four gun control measures this month, including Feinstein’s barring so-called assault weapons and high capacity magazines. The others would expand required federal background checks for firearms buyers, increase federal penalties for illegal gun trafficking and boost school safety money.
In CONTROL, Glenn Beck presents a passionate, fact-based case for guns that reveals why gun control isn’t really about controlling guns at all; it’s about controlling us.

Posted on March 19, 2013 at 4:38pm@WarMunger_Al You are correct we should get rid of all the BS laws that really do nothing to provide even reasonable control of guns. What we need is very simple. 100% background checks, 100% registration of guns and criminal and civil liability for owners of guns if their gun is involved in a criminal act, unless they report the gun stolen within 24 hours. For example, Ms. Lanza, if she had not died, should have been held both criminally and civilly liable for her sons use of her guns. As there is no way that 4 guns should be that accessible to anyone but the owner. When she was at work her guns should have been under lock and key.

Posted on March 19, 2013 at 7:02pmAnyone who thinks this is a victory for the right to bear arms is a fools.These commies pushed this big agenda knowing they were not going to get all that they wanted, but they got what they expected, to walk away with another piece of the 2nd Amendment. They are working to disarm the American people the same way they have for the past 50 years, piece by piece. If they walk away with a national background check, registry or even a ban on magazine sizes it is their victory. And in just a matter of time the last bits of freedom will be under the thumb of these communist. And just remember, the communists are taking the 2nd Amend away state by state right now too. And just remember your NRA is helping these fools craft these laws by making agreements. There should be no agreements. The 2nd Amendment states SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED, and that is the principal that we all should stand on. The US Supreme Court, The US Congress and the states and cities have NO AUTHORITY what so ever anywhere in the US Constitution to Amend the 2nd Amendment except as prescribed by the US Constitution. And to date, the 2nd Amendment has not been amended.

Harry Reid is up for re-election in 2014.
The Feinstein bill can be tacked on to another bill such as “children’s healthcare”,
and then they’ll dare the republicans to vote against it.
The anti’s are not going away. They know they have the republicans on the ropes

Posted on March 19, 2013 at 7:21pm@ JROOK…The fact of the matter re: Ms Lanza, is there has been no determination made as to the manner in which her weapons were stored. You assume too much. Too bad she died. You would have her brought up on charges for having had the gall to exercise her constitutional rights. A constitutional right is just that. It is God given not ordained by the government.. One need not pass a test in order to exercise it. This is not Cuba or Venezuela, it’s America. ObaMao hasn’t totally destroyed it. Not yet.

Posted on March 19, 2013 at 8:20pmDon’t get too excited about this. It is a tactic with a longer range plan. Reid is intelligent enough to realize how the Democrats had their ass handed to them in the ’94 election shortly after both Brady Bills went into effect. The results did not take out Clinton, but gave the Republicans both the House and Senate after more than forty years of Democrat domination. A possible plan is if this should pass under what they may make to appear reasonable the expected regaining of the House by the Dems will in their hopes lead to a the so called assault weapons to be added as an amendment. Its not a win for our side, but a tactic by their side.

Posted on March 20, 2013 at 10:59pmWHAT GOOD DOES DEFEATING GUN BAN ACCOMPLISH?
Cheaper than Dirt, Cabela, and gun stores no longer sell semi-auto rifles. Cheaper than Dirt sold many different models but in October marked all of their inventory as OUT OF STOCK. Now with news the Gun Ban will be defeated, stores that claimed they were out of stock no longer list them. How can we have a 2nd Amendment if we cannot buy guns, buy ammo, buy powder, or even buy reloading tools. Somehow the Government was able to take guns off of the market. If the Government can do this to guns, it can do this to food, generators, cars, and anything.

I agree with you, and know that Harry didn’t even want this coming up for debate right now.
However….
What flabbergasts me the most is that the “democratic” process can be so controlled by one man, that debate can be so easily squelched…I know, I know, it’s been happening for centuries, but what a sad, sad state of affairs this country has fallen into when one person can determine what can/cannot be debated amongst duly (?) elected officials who supposedly represent us…
Just like our FFs had in mind when they cooked up the whole thing, right?
My father is a WWII vet who luckily missed the fighting in Okinawa, but still had mop up duties. He still has his faculties, and tells me almost every time we talk about what has happened to this country, “and I was ready to give my life so crumbums like the ones in the nation’s capital can do and say everything they do now?”
He also says, “Well, at least I won’t have to be around much longer to watch it go even further down the tubes.”
There are times I actually envy him for that…
Oops! Now I’ve done it – here comes Cass Sunsteen….

I remember when MTV was just that, now its a social engineering tool to rid all kids of any moral compass and teach them how to be good little peacenik tools. Then you have the massive influx of illegals that now have anchor babies who have grown up and are part of the pinko electorate.

The liberal elite want your firearms, . . . . not just “assault weapons” either. Just like Colorado, they will make every attempt to get people limited to a single shot firearm, if even that. It is much harder to control people, with impunity, when the people are armed.
