Schumer: Retailers Should Suspend Some Gun Sales
WHAM-TV / The Associated Press ^ | January 13, 2013

Sen. Charles Schumer says retailers that sell assault weapons should stop offering them for purchase while Congress discusses gun regulation legislation.

Schumer on Sunday released a letter he sent to major retailers asking for a voluntary moratorium.

The New York Democrat says consumer demand for guns has gone up in the weeks since the December mass shooting in Newtown, Conn....

It would be fun to ask a liberal exactly what guns a person would be entitled to own and use that could not be the subject of regulation, because it would cross the line against unreasonable regulation.

I suppose it would not have an answer, any more than the question, “what policy decisions for the current democratic party are different from the policy decisions of the communist party?”

Or, what forms of marriage are not permitted according to modern liberals? Can you marry animals, multiple spouses, children, dead people? What are the current limits of a person’s right to “love” someone.

Chuckie seems like the type of coward bastard that would direct his own people right into that cattle cars, off to the death camps, if it would benefit himself in some small way.

New Jersey's 1990 ban included the Marlin Model 60, a semi-automatic tubular magazine .22 rifle as an "assault rifle".

So then it was the Marlin Model 60 in you image that could hold more than 15 rounds of .22 short, making the normally 14 round .22 LR rifle illegal.

Will the Marlin even cycle with .22 short?

“Wow, Cool. I have an assault rifle in my closet and didn’t even know it.”

According to his definition of an assault weapon being a semiautomatic rifle, I bought one yesterday along with a multi-cartridge (see, I didn't use the word “bullet”) magazine. Imagine that, an assault rifle from Kentucky, the land of Daniel Boone - ole' Daniel would be proud.

Check out the Kentucky Gun Company on the web if you need a gun/rifle. I love that place after days of searching for that rifle.

I saw on FR a post that said Hussein likely will have an executive order to ban the sale of semiautomatic rifles until congress can write a law. Does that mean if congress never passes such a law that the executive order will stand - not go away?

YEA and maybe the Sun rise can be suspended as well!
Or China could suspend the interest on debt while Congress muses!

I’d be willing to bet that ZERO percent of guns used in crimes were purchased through legit retailers.

Feinstein Schumer and Senator Whitehouse were caught lying in this document because they tried to blame tens of thousands of guns in Mexico as coming from the US when it was already reported their information was flawed and untrue. see end note iv

“My local gun store owner tells me that all the warehouses have stopped shipping until they see what will happen.”

If a buyer has already paid for the rifle but it hasn’t been shipped to him/her yet, then the buyer owns it now and that is before Hussein stops the sale of them. I have bought one, paid for it, it’s in the store but hasn’t been shipped yet.

Anyone trying to buy AFTER Hussein bans them, couldn’t buy one.
