An influential Gun Rights Advocate actually helped write the Background Check Bill coming up before the Senate this coming week. Alan Gottlieb, Executive Vice President of the Second Amendment Foundation, speaking candidly at a GOP gathering on Friday claimed that his staff had actually helped write the bill. He went on to describe how the Bill would be a step in the right direction for gun control advocates. "There's a Million other checks in there it's a Christmas Tree," bragged Gottlieb, "We just hung a Million Ornaments on it."
"Unfortunately some of my colleagues haven't quite figured it out yet because they weren't standing in the room writing it. My staff was. I'll be perfectly candid about it. This will probably break on Monday in the Wall Street Journal. "

We’ve already got Republicans caving in the Senate & Boehner caving in the House. This is better than a bill put together by Feinstein & Schumer.
I am also outraged that ANY bill is going thru, but until we can get this country back from the leftists & RINO’s, we are going to see something go thru. Sad, but true.
Alan Gottlieb has been taking a lot of risky moves, like Rommel flanking in the desert. I hope none of them come back to bite him.
Here in Washington state he helped "compromise" on HB1588, a state democrat sponsored universal background check bill. The compromise was to add wording that eliminated the state pistol registry, to show that "registration was not the goal of the bill". Gottlieb was attacked as a traitor by some pro-gun people.
Turns out police guilds balked at the removal of the registry, saying it was used thousands of times in crime investigations. Democrats had to pull the wording, registration was exposed as the real goal, conservatives dropped their support, and the bill unravelled at one deft pull of the string by Gottlieb.
Let's see if he can keep playing the dangerous game.
Off with his head.....
We don’t want “good things”.
We want benign neglect.
We want our Constitutional right left the heck alone.
Don’t be too confused, the NRA wrote the 1968 gun control act in its entirety.
It’s easier to collect contributions if you have something to fight.
I agree that’s what we want. But are we going to get it? Not unless there’s a 5 million man march on DC in the next 30 days.
Then you think this is PR MSM garbage?
I just deleted my monthly contribution to the Second Amendment Foundation, and I will be cancelling my life membership.
Alan was behind the lawsuit that had the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ORDER Illinois to enact a concealed carry statute by 6/11/13 or face completely unregulated concealed carry. The decision was written by Judge Posner, definitely one of ours.
A federal statute foreclosing the field which requires each and every state to honor each other state's gun permits and which provides a fifteen year jail term for any misuse of federal records by government officials and, apparently, a Christmas tree of other goodies is an example of Alan's genius. I trust him and Larry Pratt of Gun Owners of America far more than I will ever trust David Keene of NRA. I don't know where Larry Pratt stands on the bill but you won't catch the Second Amendment Foundation or Gun Owners of America endorsing such trash as Harry Reid for re-election.
See #30
“We are where we are” because of so-called Second Amendment supporters breaking bread with those who seek to further penalize LAW ABIDING GUN OWNERS! F- him and the rest. He’s gonna get his two cents in....good for him...and a disaster for the rest of us.
The Toomey-Manchin Kill The Bill of Rights Bill.TITLE ONE: GETTING ALL THE NAMES OF PROHIBITED PURCHASERS INTO THE BACKGROUND CHECK SYSTEM
Summary of Title I: This section improves background checks for firearms by strengthening the instant check system.
- Encourage states to provide all their available records to NICS by restricting federal funds to states who do not comply.
By "all their available records" just what records are they blackmailing states for with that statist bilge water? "All" is a pretty big word when only a very few records are applicable to denying someone their right to keep and bear arms.
- Allow dealers to voluntarily use the NICS database to run background checks on their prospective employees.
Does that means dealers can run NICS checks on prospective employees without their knowledge or consent? I have no idea what the word 'voluntarily' means there. Does it mean dealers will be allowed to not run NICS checks if they prefer not to?
- Clarifies that submissions of mental health records into the NICS system are not prohibited by federal privacy laws (HIPAA).
Submissions of mental health records? Since when has it been legal to deny any American their rights without due process? Isn't it required that a person be adjudicated mentally deficient by a court of law to do that? Mental health records are entirely irrelevant except to those court proceedings. This bill sounds like Stalinist purge material.
- Provides a legal process for a veteran to contest his/her placement in NICS when there is no basis for barring the right to own a firearm.
Is that an admission that the Bill of Rights doesn't cover veterans or an admission that it doesn't cover anyone anymore?
Was all of this gun control demagoguery really just a Trojan Horse to sneak this Bill of Rights killer into law?
Anyone standing to the left of total elimination of background checks is no 2nd amendment supporter. Period.
thank you
That's why he's speaking highly of an 'infringement'.
Let's dump these people ~ too much overburden from other sorts of RINOs to find out we've got to put up with idiocy.
Well Said,
they can keep those “checks”,
