Conservative HQ 11/6/2019
In past CHQ articles we’ve explained how the Far Left has raised governing by phony constitutional amendment to an art form in certain states, with Florida being one of their top targets.
This year is no different, with Far Left-backed organizations gathering signatures for amendments to raise the Sunshine State’s minimum wage to $15.00 per hour and criminalize the ownership of semi-automatic rifles and shotguns.
Or friends at the NRA-ILA report an anti-gun organization called BAWN (Ban Assault Weapons Now) has been gathering petition signatures in an effort to put a constitutional amendment on the November 2020 election ballot to ban possession of so-called "assault weapons." In reality, the amendment would effectively ban all semi-automatic long guns.
Under the proposed ballot language, possession of commonly owned long guns like the Ruger 10-22 rifles (including youth models), Marlin Model 60 .22 rifles, Remington Model 1100 shotguns, Benelli semi-automatic shotguns (and on and on) would be banned.
We’ve reviewed the ballot language and we agree with the NRA-ILA; proponents are intentionally attempting to confuse voters by calling it an "Assault Weapons" ban.
