Well That Didn't Take Long

The anti-rights crowd wasted no time in using Tuesday's shootings in Alabama to call for reinstatement of the Clinton Gun Ban. Speaking for the usual group of suspects, the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence issued a press release saying:

Yesterday's shooting is only the latest addition to a string of preventable tragedies committed with these military-style weapons. America needs an effective federal assault weapons ban to stop the mass production and marketing by the gun industry of these anti-personnel weapons. Today we call on the U.S. Congress to pass a federal assault weapons ban modeled on California's effective law that would ban these weapons once and for all.

To say that I am not surprised is an understatement.
