Limpsey Graham, and his merry band of RINOs, want Chucky’s approval.

They are going to get this into reconciliation so the House can ram thru what they really want.
The GOP-e Senate gave them the power to do it...again.

It doesn’t matter what the bill says now. It’ll go through reconciliation and the Rats will add whatever they want to it.

Four of the ten quislings are lame ducks.

There will be so many lawsuits against this bill it will surely go to the Supreme Court.

REAL reform against “gun violence”.

Begin about age twelve or so, with introducing the ENTIRE school age population to firearms, up close and with the intention of demystifying the “magic” power of guns. Expand this into the care, feeding, grooming and proper respect for the potential of the devices, and follow up with training in the selection of target, framing the target, and firing upon the target, all with the express purpose of doing this under controlled conditions. Once the familiarity with the weapons is established, then work on developing skills in accuracy and the correct procedures to prepare for the recoil, aiming, and firing, followed by whatever procedures are necessary to load the next round into the chamber. Repeat the aim, firing and reload until these are second nature, all the while sharpening up the accuracy.

This would have twofold effect - the guns just become another fact of life, like electricity and automobiles, a useful tool and with its own purposes. Also, it would be obvious quite quickly which of the learners, whether through carelessness, or those that harbor malicious thoughts, are the ones who should NEVER come into possession of a weapon. Then the perpetually timid, who cannot be compelled to pick up a weapon under any circumstances, even after attempts to familiarize them, should still be given training in how to avoid, evade, shelter in place, or somehow distract the active shooter, so it may be possible to make a concerted effort to neutralize or otherwise disarm the shooter.

And to have their Social Security number tattooed somewhere on their bodies, so they may be identified from among the fallen later on.

Upon graduation from high school, and with the certificate of training in their possession, the youth are then eligible to take ownership and possession of their personal firearm. None of this business about waiting until age 21, or 25, or whatever. Adulthood implies the capability for adult responsibilities.

And on the longer term, the military forces shall have a MUCH larger pool of potential recruits in the future, all with the basic knowledge of firearms, and a large civilian population that stands ready to resist any internal or external invasion - “You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.”

Criminals could care less as the bill does not apply to them.

Red flag laws will be utilized to disarm parents who express their views a school board meetings. More broadly, it will be used to disarm “white supremacists.” White supremacists include those who support:
free speech
lower taxes
defending our border
requiring a photo ID to vote
holding criminals accountable
a colorblind society
etc
White supremacists are also those who can define what a woman is

***more than 15 rounds of ammunition***

Already a failure. The Virginia Tech shooter used two handguns with 10 round magazines,
And the Parkland shooter the same. 10 rounds.

The Edmond post office shooter used two 1911 handguns with 8 round magazines(checked out from the National Guard Armory at that!)

The US military, National Guard, Police number about 2,500,000 men.
VS.
20,000,000 civilian semi-auto rifle owners, and maybe 75 million other firearm owners, and over 400,000,000 firearms out there. 250,000,000 high cap magazines in private hands.

And the government thinks they can “regulate” that?

Reconciliation does not work that way.
