Below are just a few articles from a Google search on "Obama assault weapons ban".

The fact that Obama wants an assault weapons ban doesn't mean one will get passed. The Blue Dogs will make it somewhat challenging to enact a bill with any real teeth to it. But the fact that Obama wants an assault weapons ban is certainly not new information. Get a grip. |
nobody believes a word that Obama says about guns. His record has about 100% concordance with the Brady Handgun Control Institute folks. Hence the huge rush on "assault weapons", high-capacity magazines, and ammunition going on right now.
