Sen. Kennedy then introduced an amendment to ban the manufacture and sale of "armor-piercing" ammunition. Kennedy, who actually condemned the .30-30 Winchester cartridge during debate, wants to institute a "performance-based" standard that would grant any future Attorney General sweeping authority to ban any center-fire ammunition, including most common-place rifle hunting ammunition. The standard proposed by Sen. Kennedy was rejected in the 1980s as overly broad and unnecessary to meet any threat posed to law enforcement officers` safety. A vote on this NRA-opposed amendment will take place Tuesday.

If 30-30 goes, it all goes. Getting close to crunch time, our Lords seem to be getting panicked by all the armed peasants.

Anyone that doubts the knuckle dragging communist RATS intentions to disarm Americans and reign with a tyrannical fist over all is about as sharp as a bag of marbles...

.30-30 Winchester cartridge? Hell, that's not much stronger than a .22 rimfire as far as penetration. Folks, we have to accept the fact that there is an all-out effort by the leftist elite to completely disarm the American people. They want us to be totally dependent on them for everything, even for our very lives. Well, I wasn't born a free man just to end up my life as a slave. I will "not go gently into that good night" when they come to enslave me. I will die a free man.
