Here is what Holder, Obama, Pelosi, Blair Holt, and the Ammunition Accountability people want in a gun control bill. (I know that this has been posted multiple times, but it is important).
1. An expanded HR 45, gun owner licensing. All gun owners will have to have these licenses, even owners of facilimie weapons (AKA Airsoft and BB). Licenses will only be granted if the records of the applicant are clean (This includes misdemeanors from decades ago). Licenses will have high renewal fees ($100-300/yr). Licensees will be required to hold $1 million in liability insurance. Possession of otherwise permitted weapons (See #3) without license is a felony.
2. Ammunition accountability... All ammo will be required to be microstamped and will be taxed $1/round. All non stamped ammo will be required to be turned in or thrown away. Possession of non-marked ammo is a felony. This part of the act also bans “Cop Killer” bullets. Furthermore, this will require the gun to leave a microstamp of its own on the ammo. (BTW, this will also affect law enforcement and military ammunition stocks, as they will be required to have stamps of their own)
3. Expanded “Assault Weapons” ban— This includes most all semiauto rifles, anything that can be “Bump Fired”, Semiauto handguns, and Semi-auto shotguns. It also includes pump-action shotguns and “Sniper Rifles” AKA your deer rifle. The AWB will also require people with “Prebans” to register their guns as Machine Guns, and that the tax stamp will go up to $10,000 per weapon. If you can’t afford this, you have to turn the weapon in without compensation...
4. Expansion of the Lautenbach amendment: Removes “Domestic Violence” as disqualifier to gun ownership, inserts any misdemeanor as disqualifer... Anyone with a misdemeanor on their record will be prohibited from owning a firearm. This includes DUI and traffic offenses, and offenses decades ago.
Finally, all CCW permits will be voided. Also, all gun and ammo imports will be banned.
You should quote the whole passage with the source from scripture. Good one.
You are correct. It's right close to 30 million and they will have a lock on the elections. It is all by design. What a sad development of events. These people are without consience.
This is not a joke....most of the conservatives are working under flaming liberal bosses who will fire them for going on such a march. We can't go.....or we lose our jobs. I've got to support a family. So, how do we do it?
When I saw the first $700 Billion dollar bail-out sail through Congress, despite the congressional switchboards burning down with calls running 100 to 1 against it, I knew that representation in Washington was a thing of the past.
Since then, I've mostly deleted every call I get to sign this or that petition, and have not called my reps on the eve of important congressional votes, because they've proven that they're now listening to a master other than The People.
Since then, we've seen the most horrifying roster of bills in our history sail through Congress, one by one. Each one, a bomb directed at another of our nation's pillars.
The historic mobilization of millions of Americans at these Tea Parties is a direct result of what Obama and Congress are doing to our country.
You said that the ballot box is effectively dead, and I agree. The "mail box" to Congress is also dead. If the "soap box" of the growing tea parties doesn't turn things around, we'll be left with just the "cartridge box".
One of the boxes that was stripped from us long ago was the "Moving Box". This was the ability to escape onerous laws by moving to another state. The left stripped this ability because of their pathological need to control people's life drove them to pass all their controls (unconstitutionally) at the federal level and through the federal courts.
In my opinion, the Moving Box still works to a degree.
Some states' laws, economics, and governance are more onerous than others. One can still move to a state where the social and political conditions are more favorable. I did, when I left California and moved to Texas three years ago.
You're right, though, that the Moving Box won't help you in the case of federal laws.
Yes, it’s from the Bible. I read it last week sometime and only remembered it’s in the Old Testament. I don’t have any fancy concordances and stuff, so I couldn’t look up the passage. I’ve seen that phrase in the Bible before, and it isn’t in the context of anything flattering to those so ruled. Sorry I quoted it without reference, but it was the best I had.
I read it last week in my devotional reading and now I can’t remember chapter and verse. I’m sorry. I just simply had it called to remembrance and I don’t have any of the fancy reference books to find it. I just remember that it is in the Old Testament and wasn’t a compliment to those so ruled. These damn feminists, spoiled tussies one and all, have ruined this world worse than it might have been. Pelosi and Hillary alike are phony megatussies especially.
I don’t have anything to register. Sold em all last week, well all that the dog didn’t eat. :-)

Or was it a boating accident. :-).
what’s your opinion on getting term limits ?
Sometimes, just gotta decide what is the primary gig, all else is secondary.
I’m sure some lost them in a divorce, tornado or the last Ice Age ( a nod to “climate change” )

Too late Nasty P!
I was forced to register one of my handguns 20 years ago...
the damned thing was such a piece of sh!t I threw it in the trash!
Isaiah 3:12 O My people! Their oppressors are children, And women rule over them. O My people! Those who guide you lead you astray, And confuse the direction of your paths.
Nuts!
