if you know anything about guns you'll love this bit of attempted legal stupidity, as you read the last part of this post, sentence b;

Georgia state Senator Donzella James has filed SB 281 a bill “…to prohibit the possession of automatic and semi-automatic guns…” That might seem significant enough on its own, but this one is crafted such that…

I almost want this to pass unamended.

I say almost, because the bill would do a few other things of which I also disapprove: ban “high” capacity magazine (more than ten rounds) and private sales at gun shows. It would also require “secure storage” of firearms by dealers.

But let’s look at that semi-auto ban. As is so often the case, the nitty gritty is hidden in the definitions.

SB 281: Dangerous Instrumentalities and Practices; possession of automatic and semi-automatic guns; prohibit; revise and provide definitions

As used in this part, the term:
(1) ‘Automatic or semi-automatic gun’ means any weapon which shoots or is designed to shoot:
(A) Automatically, more than six shots, without manual reloading, by a single function of the trigger; or
(B) Without any action needed to fire consecutive shots, other than having ammunition loaded in such weapon’s feeding device............https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/georgia-senate-bill-281-would-ban-all-semi-automatic-firearms/
