Menendez in a press release obtained by GunsAmerica. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe can no longer afford to do nothing as the scourge of gun violence continues to ravage communities across the country, and must address this as the real emergency that it is,\u201d he continued.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rep. Deutch likewise expressed a need for outlawing these commonly owned accessories. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/vermont-supreme-court-upholds-ban-on-standard-capacity-magazines\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"seize-and-destroy-federal-lawmakers-reintroduce-confiscatory-ban-on-high-capacity-magazines\" title=\"'Seize and Destroy' - Federal Lawmakers Reintroduce Confiscatory Ban on \u2018High-Capacity\u2019 Magazines\">Vermont Supreme Court Upholds Ban on Standard Capacity Magazines<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As President Biden told the country, there is absolutely no need for high-capacity magazines that can hold 100 rounds, 50 rounds, or 30 rounds: not for sport, not for self-defense, not for law-abiding gun owners,\u201d he argued.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese are the magazines of choice in mass shootings because they maximize human casualties,\u201d he added. \u201cThis bill helps to significantly reduce the number of casualties in horrific mass shootings that have returned to the headlines in recent weeks. Congress must not turn away from these tragedies; we must take action to save lives.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Oliva, the Director of Public Affairs for the National Shooting Sports Foundation, slammed the duo for &#8220;proposing to put a limit in the amount of self-defense Americans can use to protect themselves and their loved ones.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We know criminals don\u2019t obey the law and this won\u2019t stop the criminal misuse of firearms. This will only disarm those who follow the law,&#8221; he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oliva also questioned the interesting timing of the legislation.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Senator Menendez and Congressman Deutch are ignoring right now in Brooklynn, Minnesota, Black men are protecting Black-owned businesses with black rifles, fitted with these magazines,&#8221; he explained.  &#8220;While other businesses burn, these businesses are untouched because of the lawful use of firearms to defend life and property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Senator Menendez and Congressman Deutch weren\u2019t sent to Washington, D.C. to make it easier for criminals to prey on Americans. They should adhere to their oath of office, do their job and protect the rights of their constituents,&#8221; he concluded.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, this legislation is confiscation.  This legislation is infringement.  This legislation is unconstitutional.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When anti-gun advocates and politicians claim that they are &#8220;not coming for our guns,&#8221; like Vice President Kamala Harris literally said less than a month ago in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/digest\/harris-on-confiscation-thats-not-what-were-talking-about\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"seize-and-destroy-federal-lawmakers-reintroduce-confiscatory-ban-on-high-capacity-magazines\" title=\"'Seize and Destroy' - Federal Lawmakers Reintroduce Confiscatory Ban on \u2018High-Capacity\u2019 Magazines\">interview with <em>CBS This Morning<\/em><\/a>, <strong>DO NOT BELIEVE THEM!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They are coming for our lawfully owned firearms and accessories.
