WAKE UP FREEPERS! GUN LOCK AMENDMENT ATTACHED - AND IT'S WORSE THAN THE AW BAN!
More Information here ^

Senator Barbara Boxer's amendment to the Gun Manufacturers Liability Bill (still pending) has passed.

Her amendment mandates (according to what was stated during debate) that guns MUST, by force of Federal Law, be locked when stored in a home.

If you don't properly lock your guns, you pay $2,500 fine and lose your right to own firearms.

Everyone should call both of their Senators now, both in Washington & their state offices.

To call Washington, the Capital Switchboard has two (2) toll free numbers:

1-800-648-3516

1-800-839-5276

Let them know, NO AWB, no renewal, no new bill, and NO COMPROMISE!

It is getting to the point that Californication along with New Pork needs to leave the Union, or the people need to forcibly remove these statists from their position of power.

Boxer does not deserve to be the servant of any American. It is obvious that she desires to be served.

Blessings, Bobo

I'm on your side, but on the comparison to the AWB, I'd rather be able to have future generations able to buy rifles suitable for defending freedom, and take the risk that I get nabbed for the unlocked shotgun under my bed.

I see a VETO if it does pass Congress: Bush Seeks Protection from Gun Dealers (Bush doesn't want AWB included in legislation)

I second that. And I also sincerely doubt that, if this was attached, that the House would go along with it. It is meant as a poison pill for the gun manufacture's liability section.

The Democrates did this with a majority of the Rebublicans.

I blame the Republicans. The socialists are what they are. I expect the Republicans to know better.

They deserve our wrath this November.

The source is the floor of the Senate. Go turn on C-Span.

It's not breaking news, it's not sourced, and it is a grammatically poor post.

Please no practicality only running around in circles screaming "the sky is falling" wanted.

This will not stand in the House anyway.
