When this first became law, I wrote to then-Senator Spence Abraham (now GW's Secretary of Energy) to complain. I received a nicely-worded letter which informed me that, when people commit certain crimes, they LOSE THEIR PRIVILEGE TO OWN A FIREARM. Exact words.
And here I thought I was living in America. When this is repealed, it will not be one moment too soon. Legislators who voted for this should be ashamed.
Since cops can breath down our necks and talk about taking responsibility they can eat some too when involved in Domestic violence. They dont like it get over and move on. Other jobs are lost from outside activities. Cops and military better snap out of the Domestic violence if they dont care for Lautenberg.
