"Ban all semi-automatic rifles that can accept a detachable magazine.

"

laughable if she weren't serious!

Not to downplay how stupid the rest of it is but... that's especially asinine.

Feinstein Introduces Massive Semi-Auto Firearm and Magazine Ban

On Jan. 24, Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) introduced S. 150, her long-anticipated bill to ban "assault weapons" and "large" magazines.
