On a positive note it will most likely cut back on crime just a lil bit.. It will be alot harder to obtain a weapon.. But who knows the local liquir store might start to get mugged with bamboo sticks for now on.

I say: great law..
Look at the Netherlands, very low crime rates on death by gun shot... why? because we have exactly the same law.

What do you think of the Republican agenda of constant military expansion?
I ask, because the primary reason for the 2nd amendment is to ensure that the States have a right to a militia. Interpretation includes individuals being able to bear arms to protect from a tyrannical government.
The problem is the US government spends $607 BILLION on military per year. (41.5% of global military spending.)
That is $2,000 per man, woman and child in the USA.
The #2 country in military spending is China at $85 BILLION, or 5.8% of global spending.
China is spending $0.064 per Chinese man, woman and child.
So what are you more afraid of, a democrat taking your right to keep a glock in your nightstand or the 500lb bomb a republican bought with your money falling on your house?
Divide and conquer.... divide and conquer.

40 stars and flags for a HOAX. Nice.
Gun nuts claim to be so level headed yet are some of the most gullible people I have met.
The knee-jerk reaction of "OMG [insert democrat name here] is gonna take all of my guns away!" is getting really old.

And Angus the Obamatron makes his appearance like always... How much are the Obamatrons officials paying you to try to dismiss every thread that puts your messiah, and his administration in a bad light?....

OMG this is the kind of posting that just downgrades ATS.
You have a stark raving Glen Becker coming in here and posting parts of their own article that isn't even remotely true.
First, this doesn't even involve obama, this was a bill brought before Congress By Rep Bill Rush.

It involves the entire Obama administration, and the mayority Democrat/Progressive House and Senate....
Every Obamatron official is an advocate of gun control, and to disarm all American citizens...
What don't you understand that this is STILL in Congress, and the fact that we have a mayority DEmocrat/Progressive House, and Senate, and we have a "Progressive" administration which are all advocates of gun control and makes it a real possibility for this bill being passed?....
Obviously none of the Obamatron nuts decided to read the source..yeah they CLAIM it has no possibility of passing...but that is a CLAIM meanwhile we have an administration of Democrats/"Progressives" that are advocates of gun control and a mayority Democrat/Progressive House and Senate....
This is NOT a hoax....

Hey, I read an article today that said Obama is going to legislate mandatory castration for all white males. He was smoking coc aine and drinking virgin blood when the idea came to him.

Not every Dem is against guns like you are saying, again with spreading fear. This the exact reason its hard for me to get .45 ammo, bunch of nuts think everyone is out to take away their guns.

The article is fake. This has been shelved because if it somehow ever passed, all that voted for it would be kicked from office. It started from before Obama was elected. The NRA will tell you they aren't worried about this passing at all.

Obama really hasn't done anything to take away gun rights, Clinton did far more.

You should realize by now that a Kenyan born Muslim named Barry would never take away gun rights. Does that really sound like something the antichrist would push for?
