U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has stepped forward to defend the unilateral expansion of Massachusetts’ semi-automatic gun ban by the state’s attorney general, Maura Healey. Healey’s dictates, issued July 20, are so vague and ambiguous that they could outlaw every semi-automatic rifle and pistol in the state with nothing more than her signature.

In an email blast sent Monday, Warren called upon Healey’s Democrat backers to sign a petition in support of her brazen expansion of the ban, warning that Second Amendment activists “picked a fight with the wrong state and the wrong attorney general,” masslive.com reports.

As A1F Daily reported earlier, Healey’s move has the potential to transform thousands of Massachusetts gun owners into overnight “criminals.”
