Virginia AR-15 Ban Set to be Blocked Statewide; Texas's Talarico Backed 'Assault Weapons' Ban
About this episode
The episode discusses the injunction against Virginia's assault firearms ban and Texas Senate candidate James Talarico's support for an assault weapon ban.
Contributing writer Jake Fogleman and I discuss the latest injunction issued by a state court judge against Virginia's "assault firearms" ban which would block its enforcement across the entire commonwealth. We also cover resurfaced video of Texas Senate candidate James Talarico (D.) voicing support for an "assault weapon" and "high capacity" magazine ban.
