How about to prevent the next 9/11 or are you uninformed that there are terrorist cells in the US and they are preparing. Got one we know of in Buffalo.

Just how many rights are prepared to give up to feel safe?

Frankly, from my limited knowledge of the Act, there were some corrections to stupid things "The Gorelick Wall" and other procedural items.

But some things sucked.

How long before some bright Senator figures out they can cross check gun owners and take advantage of a political opportunity (public official gets gunned down) to effectively throttle our Second Amendment rights?

Americans don't give up their rights.
