: Assault weapons ban pushed : by Steven T. Dennis : Sep. 17, 2003 : Maryland lawmakers are pushing for a new state assault weapons ban, pointing to last year's sniper attacks for ammunition. : . : . : . : Del. Carmen Amedori (R-Dist. 5) of Westminster vowed to stop any gun control efforts. "It seems that the gun grabbers are already gearing up to once again infringe upon the rights guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution, with the news of proposed legislation that will ban so-called 'assault weapons,'" Amedori said in a statement. : She added: "It appears that this is nothing more than political posturing by Martin O'Malley and/or Doug Duncan. And I would urge Mayor O'Malley to dedicate more of his time in trying to enforce the laws that are currently on the books than once again trying to infringe upon the law-abiding citizen with yet another law that will do nothing to deter criminal activity."
