{Charleston,
West Virginia}…Some politicians, including Senator Joe Manchin, are taking the heat
from pro-gun organizations after California Senator Dianne Feinstein said she
plans to introduce legislation to reauthorize a ban on new assault weapons in January
after the 1994 Assault Weapons Ban expired in 2004. Keith Morgan, the president
of the West Virginia Citizens Defense League, a pro-Second Amendment
organization, says they’re concerned over recent gun control discussions, and
they plan to protest Manchin’s recent comments during a rally in Charleston Saturday. Manchin
has not explicitly said if he would support such a ban but did question why
people needed to own assault rifles. Manchin says he has always been a
supporter of the Second Amendment.
