Ironic that the bill is HR 1022, and it is trying to ban the Ruger 10/22.
Here we go again.
I have a Ruger 10/22, and cannot fathom how this rifle could be banned, as it is about two steps up from a high powered BB gun. Hell, why not ban all BB guns as well?
HEY DEMS - PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS: It's either an all or none deal - if a ban is to be put in place, either ban ALL guns or none at all. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE GONADS TO PROPOSE WHAT YOU REALLY WANT, THEN DROP THE ISSUE!
Of course, an outright ban will never be introduced - they'll just try and take the guns away incrementally until there is no more guns to ban.
Just let em' try, that's all I have to say.
