Brady Campaign Hoping For Expanded "Assault Weapons" Ban Under An Obama Administration
With the prospect of Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) being elected President of the United States, the Brady Campaign is trying to rejuvenate public interest in one of the group's priority issues: a ban on all detachable-magazine semi-automatic firearms, a vast expansion of the federal "assault weapon" law of 1994--2004. As Brady notes in a new propaganda paper, "Assault Weapons: Mass Produced Mayhem," "Senator Barack Obama supports banning assault weapons."

California: Historic Briefs on Second Amendment ?Incorporation? Filed!

New Jersey Court Sides Against ?One-Gun-A-Month? But Fight is Far from Over!
The New Jersey Appellate Division has upheld a ruling by a lower court prohibiting Jersey City and other localities from passing firearms purchase and sale regulations that conflict with state law.
