This is typical of "liberal" thinking, by restricting law abiding citizens , it will in someway affect the criminal use of anything, in particular FIREARMS. I liked and respected Barrak Obamma, but I would never vote for a Democrat/liberal, ever. If you enjoy your right to keep and bear arms, or any other of our civil rights, and you vote Democrat, you are not helping but hurting America. My view point on the difference between Conservative / Liberal is very simple:
Conservative; believes the Constitution and Bill of Rights mean exactly what they say, period.
Liberal; believes these documents open to interpretation, they can mean anything the Democrat law makers want them to.
If you own firearms and consider yourself a liberal or Democrat, you should seriously reconsider your actions in the political arena and how they are affecting your civil rights.
For those of you that dismiss this legislation, believe it will die in commitee, I hope you are right. But you must consider that we now have an anti-gun president and a Democraticaly controled House and Senate. We could all live to see the end to all legal gun ownership in the United States of America. When the right to have firearms goes, then others will follow, the 2nd Amendment guarantees all the others.
Just an afterthought to drive the point home: "Have you ever seen legislation like this bill from the desk of a Conservative / Republican"?
NO.
