An open letter to State Governors & Legislatures

Ban Sales of Assault Rifles - It’s The Right Thing To Do!

The recent ruling by a federal judge in California, declaring the state's ban on assault weapons unconstitutional, is a matter of grave concern. This decision, which could overturn several state statutes related to assault weapons, is based on the argument that semiautomatic rifles are commonly used for self-defense. However, the potential misuse of these weapons poses a significant risk to public safety. It is crucial to prioritize the well-being of the community over individual gun ownership rights. Therefore, it is requested that immediate action be taken to appeal this ruling and uphold the ban on assault weapons. The previous decision by the same judge, overturning the ban on large-capacity ammunition magazines, further underscores the urgency of this matter. The focus should be on expanding, not curtailing, restrictions on military-grade firearms.
