The strategy in those bans represent baby steps towrd the ultimate goal of banning gun ownership.
That is why these proposed bans have no impact against gun violence.. that is not their point.
Yes, it has already happened in many other nations, as we all know. Yet libs want to sing their song of denial. Nothing to worry about, your freedoms are safe. Doubtless that was what every slave was told as they boarded their ship.
Do you liberals even know how many mags you have helped sell? For every gun that needs a mag, there are hundreds of mags for it. Many people have been saving up mags like gold. Prices may go up but there is not gong to be any shortage of magazines of any size. Do you really think that if someone wants to shoot up a school that they will suddenly not do so because there is a law that says no new over 10 round mags? Will they not find one of the billion mags out on the market currently to buy? Its a dumb hill to try to take. I just don't get why you would ever think you could ever stop mags for guns. That ship has sailed. Since the Clinton crime bill in 94 mags have been produced in record numbers. Its like trying to say your going to take back a rumor after its out on the internet. Its a fools errand. Its never going to happen.
It's stupid to assume that someone has to be liberal to have an opinion one way or another on large capacity magazines. Were you not too lazy to google why people suggest this, then you'd know the answer to your question.

Sorry, but I'd say you're wrong there. Go look at countries like Canada where they limit clip sizes. There's no real movement there to ban gun ownership. The strategy you're talking about is the gun lobby trying to make simpletons afraid so that they get more money in donations and move firearm purchases. It works quite well. There's lots of stupid people around.
Magazine limits are moronic. It's like trying to address drunk driving by limiting gas tanks to 10 gallons, and/or vodka bottles to 750 milliliters. And typically libs don't even know the right word for what they want to ban. It's "magazine," not "clip."
I would compare it more to limiting alcohol threshold relative to DWI, drunk driving laws, checkpoints in fact changed lives. I don't think limiting clip size will have nearly the impact but it's a step in the right direction, it's not really a minimal change.
By the way many ex-soldiers call them clips, don't know why that matters.

According to you ..the Framers of this nation are stupid because you know they would have never wanted government to put a ban on clip side. As far as sheep go.. the gun lobby has helped to preserve the 2nd Amendment, which your side tried tries to slowly legislate away. Who are the real lemmings?

Oh, no, Canadians would never confiscate guns just because they can...
"Let us not hear that (registration) is a prelude to the confiscation by the government of hunting rifles and shotguns," Canadian Justice Minister Allan Rock said in Clintonesque tones on Feb. 16, 1995. "There is no reason to confiscate legally owned firearms."
Ten months after Rock's remarks, Parliament passed the Canadian Firearms Act, and confiscating legally owned firearms is precisely the first thing the new law did. The first of three major provisions to go into effect banned private ownership of well more than half of Canada's legally registered pistols. Any handgun of .32 or .25 caliber and any handgun with a barrel length of 105 mm (4.14") or less--more than 553,000 legally registered handguns--became illegal with the stroke of a pen.
Pistol owners, of course, had been promised that registration would never lead to confiscation when Canada's national handgun registry was enacted in 1934. When the newer law passed five years ago, they were given three options: sell their handguns to any dealer or individual legally qualified to buy them (not a real option because the number of potential buyers was so small); render them inoperable; or surrender them to the government without compensation.
The second phase of the new law requires a government-issued firearms owner license. As of Jan. 1, 2001, anyone who owns a shotgun or rifle but did not apply for a license faces five years in prison and a $2,000 fine. These licenses are also required to buy a long gun, or if you just want to buy a box of rifle cartridges to put in Dad's Christmas stocking.
Tell that to the mother whose kid is killed by the first bullet from the 2nd mag
there ya go, I fixed it for ya.
you should have repeated the 3rd grade and you could have done the math on your own
