#DOJ sues #DC over ban of #AR15s & other #SemiautomaticGuns

The suit incorrectly claims that the registration restrictions on semi-automatic rifles in DC is an “unconstitutional ban.”

In a lawsuit Monday, #Trump admin attys chastised the city for its code banning most #SemiautomaticRifles & certain #firearms from being registered with the #police, making possession of those weapons illegal.

We need a greater National Guard / #law enforcement presence at the State Capitol buildings as well.

#Trump 100% beta tested #Jan6 at the #Michigan Capitol in Lansing.

On Oct 17, 2020, after Trump repeatedly attacked Gov #GretchenWhitmer & tweeted "LIBERATE Michigan”, #MAGA, #Militia members, #BoogalooBoys, & #WolverineWatchmen (who plotted to kidnap Whitmer) invaded the state capitol #armed w/ #AR15s, #ConfederateFlags, & #swastikas.

#RepublicansBackLosers: the #disinformation claim that there is no #gun-#policy #solution to #massshooters using #AR15s and instead claims that #mentalillness is the “root cause” of these #massacres is #false, yet Abbott has repeated it often on his watch.
