Jerry Nadler actually said...

"assault weapons have become the favorite weapon for many mass murderers."

"By allowing killers to rapidly and repeatedly fire bullets at their human targets without stopping to reload, assault weapons are designed for maximum bloodshed."

"If we just take my district, since I have been in Congress, I have lost five officers who were overpowered by perpetrators because they were better-armed than my police officers."

"This is why I support a national ban on assault weapons."
