CA Legislators Enable Terrorists--They Helped Kill14 People : [Picture]

Fourteen people are dead at the hands of a pair of psycho fundamentalists because of a handful of California legislators. Why? Because those legislators blocked a law to close a loophole that enabled the purchase of the automatic weapons.

This Huffingtonpost article explains,

“The Smith & Wesson M&P15 that Farook wielded and Malik’s DPMS A-15 were both legal in California despite the state’s tough assault weapons ban because they had button mechanisms to release their ammunition magazines. An exception known as the “bullet button loophole” allows rifles that would ordinarily be prohibited to be manufactured and sold if they have the button-release feature, since their magazines are then considered fixed rather than detachable.

The loophole has spawned a cottage industry for gun makers in California, some of whom specialize in specially manufacturing assault-style rifles to comply with state law.

Farook and Malik illegally tampered with the rifles to make their rampage even deadlier, according to Davis. The Smith & Wesson M&P15 had been altered in a failed attempt to make it function like an automatic weapon, she said, while the DPMS A-15 was modified to accommodate 30-round magazines.”  source
