2nd Amendment Under Assault....Again
There hasn't been a lot of news covering this yet, and I don't know if it will get any traction, but it is worth keeping an eye on.
Quote:
U.S. Representative Bobby Rush (D-Ill.) recently sponsored H.R. 45, also known as "Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act." The bill is, at its core and as its name implies, a licensing and registration scheme.
The measure calls for all handgun owners to submit to the federal government an application that shall include, among many other things: a photo; an address; a thumbprint; a completed, written firearm safety test; private mental health records; and a fee. And those are only some of the requirements to be licensed!
The bill would further require the attorney general to establish a database of every handgun sale, transfer, and owner's address in America. Moreover, the bill would make it illegal to own or possess a "qualifying firearm" -- defined as "any handgun; or any semiautomatic firearm that can accept any detachable ammunition feeding device…" [emphasis added] without one of the proposed licenses.
There are other, more draconian measures in this bill. Bobby Rush, former member of the Black Panthers, and having served time for .... of all things - weapons charges. Yep, one to keep an eye on.
Sure we can trust the government, just ask an Indian
