Ummm, anyone hear about this Bill in DC being pushed through?

Only so many straws...

Edit: CHenry beat me to it.


I'm still trying to figure out "what epidemic?"

Basically they want to do the following.

1. Require a license to purchase and posses a firearm and/or ammunition.
2. Create a national registry.
3. Cannot purchase (or sell) more than 1 firearm per month.
4. Dealers have to increase store security to Fort Knox levels.
5. Eliminate same state person-to-person transfer.
6. Outlaws silencers and full-auto firearms completely.
7. Create a national Red-flag law.
8. Expanding Gun free zones.
9. Reinstate and expand the assault weapons ban of the late 1990s (10 round mags, cosmetic feature ban, and all that jazz..)
9a. Ban ALL AR platform firearms.


I'm sure there's more, but this is what i found from a quick glance through it.

So in other words it is DOA.

On the actions tab of the bill, it says on 3/10/2020 it was "Referred to the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security.
Action By: Committee on the Judiciary".
So it looks like it hasn't moved in 4 months.

Is it stalled or just awaiting the perfect time to hit the gas? All it will take is the right set of circumstances that they can twist, inflate, and mold into the perfect receptacle for this bill to fill.

I don't know. If there is, all the Dems need to do is suspend that rule or change it. Right now they hold the marbles in the House.

Is this the same bill that they’re trying to use to ban pistol braces again?

to be honest, I agree with a lot that rob says and stands for, and his sentiment on having some sort of unified leadership in regards to gun laws is something we desperately need. The NRA isn’t exactly doing anything.
