Minnesota Democrats are looking to prohibit the purchase and possession of semi-automatic firearms this legislative session. Two bills have caught the eyes of gun owners last week: HF3570 and HF3628. The former seeks to ban the purchase of so-called “assault weapons” while the latter bans the ownership of them whatsoever. 

If you have ever heard a Democrat tell you “We’re not coming for your guns,” you now know they’re lying. 

HF3570 was introduced by transgender state representative Leigh Finke, who has blocked Action 4 Liberty on X (formerly Twitter), which bans the sale of semiautomatic weapons and allocates funds to initiate a voluntary buyback. HF3628 is introduced by Representative Pérez-Vega, which takes Finke’s bill a step further by forcing police officers to round up firearms from gun owners. This legislation also prohibits the ownership of large-capacity magazines.

Penalties for violating Pérez-Vega’s anti-gun proposal can face a $25,000 fine and 5 years in prison. 

These unbelievable proposals are certainly unconstitutional. Of course, these first-term Democrats do not care. They care about forcing their worldviews and beliefs down the throats of law-abiding Minnesotans who are just looking to live their lives.

Do not be surprised if these proposals make it to the floor of the House and Senate. Democrats in 2023 successfully passed crazy tax hikes, a 40% spending increase, elimination of any restrictions on abortion, and a crazy red flag law. This is the most far-left government in Minnesota history and nothing can stand in their way except the voters in their districts.
