Lets wait until there's actual proposals before we start worrying.

Furthermore, us gun owners should start praying that Democrats in Denver and DC start writing gun control legislation because for the last decade or so pretty much every time they do it blows up in their faces and they loose seats.
That's the up side of the issue. The down-side is when they DO actually get laws passed is we the people have to live with them until we can get rid of them. We all suffered through the Brady Bill for years. DC and Chicago have suffered through complete gun bans and are still suffering through restrictions so immense, I doubt it will ever change. The list goes on... Yes, this legislation typically impacts there next election year and they get booted, but the damage is done and remains until the pendulum swings again. It's the same thing we are currently seeing the Republican party doing but with different issues. I personally would like to forego another Brady Bill which is sure to have some new form of ammunition limiting verbiage in it. It will take years to get rid legislation.
