Manassas, VA --(Ammoland.com)- Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA) has published some of the details of her new “assault weapons” ban, and it’s even uglier than anticipated.
It is expected was introduced on January 22 2013, the first day the Senate accepts bills for the new session.
Meanwhile, on the first day of the new session in the House of Representatives, several legislators introduced - or reintroduced - a variety of anti-rights bills. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) has 4 bills: H.R.137 requiring background checks on all firearm transfers, H.R.138 banning possession and transfer of magazines with a capacity over 10 rounds, H.R.141 regulating gun shows, and H.R.142 requiring licensing of ammunition dealers, reporting of bulk ammunition purchases, and banning mail-order purchase of ammunition. Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill) reintroduced his registration and licensing bill as H.R.34, and Rush Holt (D-NJ) introduced a licensing and registration bill of his own, H.R.117.
One of the most insidious pieces of legislation offered so far is from Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA). It is H.R.21, a bill he calls the “NRA Members’ Gun Safety Act of 2013.” The title is based on Moran’s claim that the provisions of the bill are, according to some polling, supported by self-identified members of the NRA.
The bill does not have the backing or endorsement of the NRA or any member in good standing of that organization, nor is it supported by any other legitimate firearms organization.
H.R.21 mandates background checks on all firearm sales or transfers, including gifts to relatives, bequests to children and grandchildren, and transactions between friends and shooting buddies. The fine print of the bill contains a clause designed to facilitate gun registration, and it also mandates background checks on gun shop employees – something that is a smart business practice, but which is currently forbidden by federal laws.

the last bit sounds more like a taxation taking.

Typical deception by the O administration. Most dishonest administration the U.S. has ever had in it’s history. The ends justifies the means should be their slogan. And this guy stepped up and said there would be transparency; I guess sort of like those shady used car salesmen that tell you the car was owned by a little old lady who only drove it to church every Sunday and back and kept it in the garage....yeah sure...
These people have no idea what a shyt storm they are stirring up.
If they think Americans are going to give up and lay down they are crazy.
We have rights, One of them is to own weapons. We are right and they are wrong and people will fight for what is right.

Just more Saul D Alinsky’s ‘Rules for Radicals’ :
RULE # 8: “Keep the pressure on. Never let up.” Keep trying new things to keep the opposition off balance. As the opposition masters one approach, hit them from the flank with something new.
RULE #10: “If you push a negative hard enough, it will push through and become a positive.” Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.
RULE #11: “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.” Never let the enemy score points because you’re caught without a solution to the problem.
More Commie Crap !
Less transparency behind closed doors
Somebody keep a list of who we NEED to get primaried out of office !
Venturer~:” We have rights, One of them is to own weapons. We are right and they are wrong and people will fight for what is right.”
And that is what they are looking for : a physical fight.
Keep up the political fight , but don’t get physical.
It’s just another assault on the Constitution and the “law of the Land” ..
until we just get fatiqued out , and relent .
These liars like Biden, the Brady Bunch, Mayors Against Illegal Guns and the like have cooked up their own crazy polling data to support their positions. One of them, I think it was the Mayors, claimed that 89% of gun owners were in favor of an AW and magazine ban. 89%? I wonder which gun owners they called? Maybe Feinstein and Schumer and pals?
I don't think that they want a physical fight at all because they know that they can't win. They want to threaten and posture because they "know" we will back down and "compromise". After all their greatest tool to implement socialism has been incrementalism.
Durus~:” After all their greatest tool to implement socialism has been incrementalism.”
Exactly !
Wear’em down !

As the only consumer product, the ownership of which is protected by the constitution, surely there would be some consumer laws against overbearing legislation. (like the constitution isn’t enough!)
“the fink, whose perfidy was equaled only by his(her) gall” (Gilbert Millstein).
PERFIDY is a perfect term for the treasonous persons we have in OUR government today. If we cannot cleanse DC and the the filth that occupy it we are SOL.
It does NOT make any sense!!! He should be writing NO LAWS AT ALL; if he’s a felon he should be in JAIL, or working as a short-order cook!!!
Exactly. The sooner our side realizes Alinsky was actually spot-on from a strategic standpoint, we can use his tactics against the enemy. Why? Because they WORK!!!
