Dem Rep. Jan Schakowsky: 'Assault weapons ban just the beginning'
According to Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.), an assault weapons ban is "just the beginning" of a much broader agenda to restrict the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, Joel B. Pollack reported at Breitbart.com Monday.
“We want everything on the table,” she told conservative video journalist Jason Mattera. “This is a moment of opportunity. There’s no question about it.”
According to Pollack, Schakowsky made the admission at a women's rights rally last month.
So the assault weapons ban is just the beginning?" Mattera asked.
"Oh absolutely," she said. "I mean, I’m against handguns."
In another exchange with Mattera, Schakowsky proposed letting states and municipalities ban guns even though such laws have been struck down by the Supreme Court.
"And there may be an allowance, once again, for communities--I have communities in my district that prohibited handguns within their borders.
