Senate Democrats Introduce New Gun Control Bill – Requires DOJ License for Gun Purchases with a 5-Year License Limit – And Government Power of Confiscation

Senate Democrats on Thursday introduced an ambitious new gun control legislation that would require all Americans to obtain a Department of Justice (DOJ) license with a 5-year limit before purchasing a single gun. The new bill would also give the government the power to confiscate guns if the license is revoked.

This new legislation was introduced by Sens. Cory Booker (D-NJ), Bob Menendez (D-NJ), and Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn).

....... Snip........

The bill also authorizes “procedures to ensure that any firearm is removed from any individual when the individual’s license is revoked.” Confiscated firearms would only be returned to the owner if the license is reinstated.

The Attorney General could deny a license for numerous reasons, including if the applicant has a “history of drug or alcohol abuse,” has “any recent acquisition of firearms, ammunition, or other deadly weapons,” or has a “history of unsafe storage or handling of firearms.”

Additionally, the legislation would make it illegal for “any individual to sell or otherwise dispose of a firearm to a person” unless they report the exchange to the Attorney General.

Last month, Biden released a statement calling on Congress to pass gun control laws.

Right, they’ll unleash chaos. No need to control it when they rise above it. Imagine from their perspective, what could be more satisfying entertainment?

I agree with you 100 percent. Let’s try a little analogy and see 8f this passes the smell test. Replace guns with free speech. The DOJ will create a license for free speech. To talk you must be licensed. To print an opinion you must have a license. The licence to free speech can be revoked by DOJ for any reason...oh and we are going charge you for the privilege of free speech. See...it kinda smells. It isn’t a privilege that the government can regulate. It is a god given right as part of being an American!!

I didn’t say there would be a rebellion.

I said the Deep State WANTS, maybe even NEEDS, a rebellion to trigger their next round of repression.

There are millions of marijuana users who illegally possess guns today, but no real way to catch them. This will allow the feds to disarm any with a state card identifying them as illegal gun owners. Kind of a collision of the stupid drug war and the stupid war on guns.

the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Which part is not clear?

The part that interferes with them forcing us to do what they want us to do, and only what they want us to do.
