Did she really say that?

Old news, but it needs to be dusted off every once in awhile.

In the debate between Rebecca Peters of IANSA and Wayne Lapierre of the NRA, Wayne claimed that IANSA wanted to restrict longarms to one that could fire less than 100 meters.

Would someone really make such an inane statement?

Yep.
civilians should not have sniper rifles, or rifles that they can kill someone at 100 meters distance, for example. -Rebecca Peters, CNN Oct. 23 2002

In the debate, she specifically says:

"I think Americans who hunt -- and who prove that they can hunt -- should have single shot rifles suitable for hunting whatever they"re hunting. I mean American citizens should be like any other citizens of the world. "

They also want to ban all semi-auto's and handguns (boy that sounds familiar). What's left?

BTW. The Brady Campaign, various Joyce Foundation puppets, and the CSGV are all members of IANSA.

Just to let you know where they really stand.

That's the thing. We're NOT like everybody else. We refuse to be.
