H. R. 1022 : McCarthy's Assault Weapons Ban
This Is Carolyn McCarthy
This is Carolyn McCarthy, the Democratic Congress Woman from New York, who devotes her life to gun control legislation, but knows nothing about firearms. She writes the legislation on something she knows nothing about. This is one example how the myths are created. McCarthy is typical of what we see throughout our government of elected officials.The anti second amendment groups, like the Brady Campaign, has been using her to place in congress to provide a front toward their pushing their anit-gun bills.
