Let's see how the vote turns out. I'm betting the Dems can't get all their own people to support it. Look at the names, the most liberal congressmen from the most liberal districts, the sheeple from these places are for gun control. Local districts are going to vote local politics. But! when it comes to national elections they don't bring it up i.e. Barack and Hillary. Would they pass it if they could? You bet!
