On Thursday, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) penned an op-ed for USA Today, titled: “Ban assault weapons, buy them back, go after resisters: Ex-prosecutor in Congress.”
In the piece, Swalwell not only argues that the federal “assault weapons ban” should be reinstated, he further demands that the United States government institute a mandatory buyback of semi-automatic rifles. Swalwell then goes even further, stating that if Americans are unwilling to hand over their semi-automatic rifles to the government, they should be sought out and prosecuted:
