This should be DOA in the House, but I hope the Democrats make gun control a major campaign issue. Hopefully, they'll make repealing the Second Amendment a plank in their platform.
“To Schmuckie Chuckie, repealing the Second Amendment would be a reasonable gun control measure.”
If you have a copy of “Unintended Consequences” pull it off the bookshelf and check out the “Carl Schaumberg” character. I looked up dates, and Schumer was in the House of Representatives at the copyright date of U.C. just like the Schaumberg character.
It seems likely Schaumberg is a thinly-disguised Schumer, though Schaumberg met a messy end (or should I say “ends”?) in the novel.
