We need a new Gun Law- Those who cannot purchase one cannot write legislation on them! (vanity)
ATF Form 4473 Question e ^

Posted on 01/25/2013 4:17:14 AM PST by Red in Blue PA

All of these legislative pieces floating around in various Chambers got me to thinking.....some of the people actually WRITING gun legislation could not even walk into a store and purchase a gun. That needs to be made unlawful.

Surely everyone can agree that people who cannot legally buy a gun should not be able to write laws regarding them.

Barack Obama admitted to using drugs- he could not legally purchase a gun yet is helping to write gun legislation.

Bobby Rush of IL is a felon- he also could not legally purchase a gun yet he is once again proposing new gun legislation.

These are just two people off the top of my head. I am sure there are additional people, in all of the state houses in this country.

The most common sense piece of legislation would mandate that those who cannot buy guns can not write laws regarding them. Again, this is about as "common sense" (I hear that phrase all the time) as it gets.

I am sure some reading this work for pols in DC. If so, please print this out and put it in front of the nose of the politician you are working for. We need this type of reform.

Criminals cannot be making the laws for law abiding gun owners.

You can’t buy a gun if you are currently taking illegal drugs, are a convicted felon or convicted of a domestic violence misdemeanor

You have bad information there

Joe Biden has had brain surgery three times that we know of ~ all unsuccessfully. Sure, he can walk around and dress himself but listen to him talk ~ the man's not connected to some of the more serious parts of his brain.

I don't think Joe Biden could purchase a firearm in this or any other country.

Obama is also a head case showing clear evidence off prior serious injury. Honest licensed gun dealers would want to see a statement from a competent surgeon before selling anybody with those scars any sort of weapon.

Feinstein's record in that regard is unknown, but her obsession suggests she has some demons in there duking it out ~ again, she's a head case and she'd need some evidence that she was physically and mentally well.

Harry Reid probably knows all about these people. Likely he's not going to let anything like they've proposed get out of committee.

Believe me, liberals love to own firearms and only see themselves as “qualified” due to their superiority.

It is the rest of us “peons” that cannot be trusted.

No one should be writing gun laws that were already settled by the constitution.

As far as criminals are concerned, they shouldn’t be out of prison if they’re dangerous and anyone else should be able to own a gun if they choose.

Obama never came out and said “that was wrong” or “I should not have done it” so for all we know he probably still does it.

The fact that Bobby Rush could not walk into a store and buy a gun is not debatable. He can’t.....yet he is once again pushing gun laws which he authored.

Obama not only admitted to pot use. He also volunteered his cocaine use.

How about this: make the background check requirements to run for public office the same as that required to purchase a gun. Or how about this: if you can’t pass a background check to purchase a gun, you can’t vote.
