From link :”Mr. Gottlieb said that despite claims to the contrary, the amendment that would expand checks to sales online and at gun shows is “not registration” and went on to list a host of gun-rights protections in the measure, such as allowing interstate handgun sales for dealers and protections for veterans, for example.
“It’s a Christmas tree,” Mr. Gottlieb said. “We just hung a million ornaments on it.”
“We’re taking the background check and making it a pro-gun bill,” he added. “Unfortunately, some of my colleagues haven’t quite figured it out yet because they weren’t sitting in the room writing it,” he continued. “My staff was. I’ll be perfectly candid about it. This will probably break on Monday in the Wall Street Journal.”
“If you really read what’s in the Manchin-Toomey bill — man, it’s a godsend,” he went on to say. “We win rights back like crazy.”
“I think we snookered the other side,” he said. “They haven’t figured it out yet.”

Interesting development Pd.
When (+if) gun control libs start bailing from this bill in significant #s then we will know the Senate Dems have stepped right into the quick-sand. Then Obama will have his first post election disaster, much like Bush Harriot Myers eight years ago.

sorry sickdude, but it really does NOT matter what the particular wording is on paper, the cops/DAs and judges will still do their thing, and force us to fight uphill to *prove* we're within the [cough] *law*...

Im no lawyer, but a quick skim of tooley/munchkin and i could figure numerous ways to pnumbra folks to prison...much less the undoubtedly future amendments, most buried in 3k page bills to further close these loopholes that gottlieb thinks he has so cleverly *snookered* the progcomms into...

do we not remember the 'definition of "is"' or that a flat, plain English statement of "Shall NOT be infringed" have both been bastardized to be used at the judiciaries discretion, all the while #uck shumer laughs his way to the supreme court ???

Shall NOT be infringed" dammit...how friggin hard is that to adhere to ??? anything less at this point is a loss of freedom...
