LUDICROUS SPEED!
Missouri Dems jump on the “Assault Weapon” Ban Bandwagon.
The renewed push to squash the 2nd Amendment has nothing to do with “protecting the children” or ending “gun violence”.
It is a propaganda effort to gain support for the UN ATT with the special kind of stupid people among us.
