The verbiage in this bill is haunting.

Ah yes a D from Connecticut, the constitution state... How ironic..
Next drill bits will be on the list..

Can they just call it so we can get this over with and get on with the boogaloo, already?

I don’t speak French and hate a slow boil.

When the government shutdowns make it hard to get background checks, I guess they just expected people to sit on their hands.

The checks haven't been too bad here, but they're running very long, if at all, in other states.

The more obstacles government puts in the way of the citizens, the citizens will just find ways around them.

AZ with a CCW. Walk in, fill out 4473, show permit, walk out. OR buy a gun off someone and pay cash. Like i do at of all things, garage sales.




Speaking of obstacles. For the dimwitted anti-gun faction here's food for thought . Which i've said to other people, some who truly believe a waiting period would curtail crime.

IF a person with barely a kindergarten education, that herds sheep and or goats in the mountains of Afghanistan. Can build a rifle, that hits out to 1k yards, in a cave over a fire.
WTF do you people think a person with a lathe, mill or even a drill press can do. ?? Or a pressure cooker ;)


Needless to say. their copy & paste talking point is. WELL you'll never be able to defeat the U.S military with their tanks, jets and firepower.

You mean like we did in Afghanistan and Iraq ? They just can't deal with reality & facts.

“Ghost guns are an existential threat to public safety,”

Really. An existential threat. To public safety.

It's a good thing that HIV can be kept from becoming AIDS.

Never let a manufactured crisis go to waste*










*disclaimer- no the virus is not manufactured however I believe a large amount of the "Oh My Gerd, We're All Gonna Die" response is.

Does he introduce this every year? I see it was in the 2017-2018 senate by the same introduction too. Is it the same bill text?

https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/3300/text

I think one necessary requirement should be a "waiting period" to re-introduce failed bills. Something like... 5 years, minimum. Doubling to a decade if it fails a second time. Exempting certain emergency situations or whatever.

Maybe they'd be more cautious about introducing trash.


ETA: Here's 2019 in the house: https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/house-bill/3553/text?q=%7B%22search%22%3A%5B%22Untraceable+Firearm s+Act%22%5D%7D&r=1&s=3 -- same bill text.

I haven't found 2020's yet, but it's the same senator as 2017 so it's literally flinging shit every year and hoping it randomly sticks someday.

Can you imagine how much easier this would be if a bill was named for the ONE thing it addressed? There's no need for bills that have page counts in the thousands. They should also be so plainly worded that a 3rd grader could understand them, IMO.

Oh, and the politicians should be paid based on what our soldiers are paid, including housing allowances. If you want to serve in government, you shouldn't be able to build a dynasty doing it.

(SNORT) Nice one, Jim.

My printed gun exists, therefor it would be impossible to be a ghost gun, since ghosts are a figment of your imagination
