This is what oligarchs running the US...

Editor's note: ...are afraid of so they use their lackeys in governments to make life even more difficult for you. Oligarchs are afraid of an uprising. They are afraid of ordinary people having guns and who can shoot back doing serious damage. All you have to do is stop contracting with governments and say "no." This is gradualism. These government lackeys - some call them "politicians" - don't work for you. They work for money power and oligarchs. Now the state wants to come into your home to do inspections. Here is what Democratic Senator Matt D. Klein wants Americans to ignore: Framing gun ownership as a "public health issue" is a political tactic used to justify new regulations rather than address the real problem: violent individuals. Criminals and mentally deranged people who commit violent acts are not stopped by statistical studies or broad restrictions placed Americans who handle guns responsibly and professionally. Millions of Americans own firearms safely and responsibly, and penalizing them through sweeping legislation does nothing to deter those already willing to break the law. By redefining a constitutional right under the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution as a medical problem, lawmakers like Klein in Minnesota can bend data and arguments to support almost any policy outcome they want. The state of Minnesota is riddled with tax fraud and now these lackeys want to extend their control.

Minnesota Floats 'Assault Weapons' and Mag Ban With State Inspection of Storage Devices

By News2A Team | March 11, 2026

On Wednesday, March 10, the left-leaning Minnesota legislature introduced a bill banning most semi-automatic rifles and magazines with a capacity greater than 10 rounds, and mandating state inspection of firearms storage devices. The bill makes overnight criminals out of those law-abiding citizens who do not comply with the new bans.

SF 4290 was introduced by Senator Matt D. Klein (53, DFL). The legislature is undoubtedly emboldened by similar bills being passed into law around the country, including the ban about to be signed in Virginia by Governor Spanberger.

The bill shoehorns all of the loaded phrases that are typically employed to scare the public into a newly redefined object called a "semi-automatic military-style assault weapon" which includes bans on numerous firearms by name, and those that have the typical feature set of America's most popular semi-automatic rifle, the AR-15.

It also defines and bans "large capacity magazines" as an ammunition feeding device capable of holding more than 10 rounds.

Effective August 1, 2026, it becomes a felony to transfer, own, or possess "semiautomatic military-style assault weapons" and "large-capacity magazines," with penalties of up to five years in prison and $25,000 fines. As is nearly always the case, there is a carve-out exemption for law enforcement.

The bill has a grandfathering clause that requires a request – but no guarantee – for "certification of ownership" to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (commonly known as a registry, which is illegal), which then mandates an "appropriate law enforcement agency to inspect the storage of the device," with a certification renewal required every three years.
