Hey be my guest. Looks like Keyes is trying restore your right to legally arm yourself with a machine gun if you wish. But he's also saying you should be trained on its proper operation before manning it. There are others in Congress who would like to deprive you of owning any guns at all, much less machine guns. I guess some people would complain if they were hung with a new rope.

I already have the right to arm myself with a machine gun if I wish. As long as I have the right paper work, am law-abiding, and pay the 200 bucks, that is...
I can also own a cannon if I want, no government permission necessary.
Keyes would change that, and not for the better I'm afraid, if his direct quote of today is any indication...

... as long as he insists on NOT allowing the government to be the arbiter of who gets to use what... I am AOK with exactly what you said.
and the offshoot of that article needs to be addressed at the NRA level.
thanks for letting us air it out.
