当佛罗里达州的立法者准备明年投票表决一项潜在的攻击性武器禁令时,全国步枪协会(NRA)在该州的最高游说者表示,这项法律将影响那些突然不能在生日那天开枪的儿童。
马里恩·哈默,NRA的首席说客,会见一群人据共享蓝媒体报道,周五佛罗里达州的经济学家反对禁止攻击性武器的提议。她问一个想用粉色枪托射击步枪的小女孩是否会被判重罪。
“你怎么能告诉一个10岁的小女孩,她的生日得到了一支粉红色的鲁格10/22步枪,而她的步枪是一种攻击性武器,她必须把它交给政府,否则就会因持有重罪而被捕?”哈默在会上问道。
哈默是美国最有影响力的枪支游说者之一,据报道,佛罗里达已经成为她的地盘大约四十年了。
佛罗里达禁令提案的反对者,包括全国步枪协会和其他枪支倡导者团体,表示该法律过于宽泛。
据Shareblue报道,领导反对该提议的州检察长阿什利·穆迪(Ashley Moody)也表示,她认为措辞过于宽泛。
哈默继续在该州领导全国步枪协会,这是她长期以来一直在做的事情。
她的政策将佛罗里达州的枪支拥有者提升到了一个独特的特权地位,并使公众携带枪支成为该州日常生活的一个事实《纽约客》写道。

帕克兰事件后反对任何枪支管制措施的幕后推手是哈默,他甚至攻击共和党人——称他们为“共和党背叛者”——如果他们在大屠杀席卷全国,尤其是佛罗里达之后支持某些枪支管制法律的话。
现在,在反对禁止攻击性武器的提议时,哈默说10岁的小女孩不能在生日那天开枪,任何孩子也不能。
NRA SAYS NEW FLORIDA LAW WOULD TAKE AWAY RIFLES FROM '10-YEAR-OLD LITTLE GIRLS' ON THEIR BIRTHDAYS
As Florida lawmakers prepare to vote an a potential ban of assault weapons next year, the National Rifle Association's (NRA) top lobbyist for the state said the law would affect children who, all of a sudden, could not shoot rifles on their birthdays.
Marion Hammer, the chief NRA lobbyist, met with a group of economists in Florida on Friday to oppose the proposed ban of assault weapons, according to Shareblue Media. She asked if a little girl who wanted to shoot a rifle with a pink stock would be convicted of a felony.
"How do you tell a 10-year-old little girl who got a Ruger 10/22 with a pink stock for her birthday that her rifle is an assault weapon and she has to turn it over to government or be arrested for felony possession?" Hammer asked at the meeting.
Hammer is one of the most influential gun lobbyists in the country, and Florida has been her turf for about four decades, according to The New Yorker.
Opponents of the proposed Florida ban, including the NRA and other gun advocate groups, say the law is too broad.
Ashley Moody, the state's attorney general leading the opposition against the proposal, also stated she believes the verbiage is too broad, Shareblue reported.
Hammer continues to lead the NRA's charge in the state, something she has done for a long time.
"Her policies have elevated Florida's gun owners to a uniquely privileged status, and made the public carrying of firearms a fact of daily life in the state," The New Yorker wrote.

After the 2018 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, in which 19-year-old Nicholas Cruz opened fire with a legally-purchased AR-15 semiautomatic rifle and killed 17 people, a statewide push began to ban assault weapons. A grassroots group called Ban Assault Weapons Now collected more than 100,000 signatures to get it on a ballot. The group is led by the aunt of one of the victims killed in Parkland.
Behind the push to oppose any gun control measures after Parkland was Hammer, who even attacked Republicans—calling them "GOP betrayers"—if they supported certain gun control laws after the massacre gripped the nation, especially Florida.
Now while working to oppose the proposed ban on assault weapons, Hammer is adding to her legacy by saying that 10-year-old little girls wouldn't be able to shoot rifles on their birthdays, nor would any children.
