Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington

Hotrock comes from a very restrictive state...I mean, c'mon St. Louis is in Missouri so you know there's a bunch of anti-gun at work.  I've got friends that live in Zalma, Branson & Springfield...Hotrock is coming in from a state that is very restrictive and may not understand the freedom's we enjoy.  I mean, c'mon, heck...they have the State Troopers going after Ron Paul supporters.....that oughta' tell you something where he's been getting his info from...I'd give him a bit of a break and try to help him through this slanted education promulgated in his state..

I'm with you.  You guys would not believe who I used to be, you would have thought I was a conservative communist.  I've have been quoted as saying, 'would you rather be 50 states, or one nation?', and implying that 50 states was a selfish and unloyal answer.  When I was in the 9th grade, I said during a class discussion, 'owning a handgun illogical when we devote so many public resources to public safety.'

If I could see the light, through much study and observation of the real world, than Hotrockin should be OK, with a bit of guidance.  Not knocking you, but you've probably been raised to believe that government knows best, as I was.  Just look at the endless amount of F%#$ ups cause by our fed.  Every thing they touch turns to hell.  The states governments make this nation work, not the fed, so if you want something, call your state legislator.

I don't need to read the bill, I'd vote against the bill based soley on the list of co-sponsors! co-conspiritors.

A veritable who's, who of communism in the Senate!


There fixed it!  ;D
I am a member of my nation's chosen soldiery.
God grant that I may not be found wanting,
that I will not fail this sacred trust.

A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have. ~ Gerald Ford - August 12, 1974

Opinions expressed as fact with nothing to back them up:

Quote
(5) gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events at which firearms are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, provide a convenient and centralized commercial location at which firearms may be bought and sold anonymously, often without background checks and without records that enable gun tracing;

They say that like it's a BAD thing!!

Quote
(6) at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events at which guns are exhibited or offered for sale or exchange, criminals and other prohibited persons obtain guns without background checks and frequently use guns that cannot be traced to later commit crimes;

(8) many persons who buy and sell firearms at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events cross State lines to attend these events and engage in the interstate transportation of firearms obtained at these events;
(9) gun violence is a pervasive, national problem that is exacerbated by the availability of guns at gun shows, flea markets, and other organized events;
(10) firearms associated with gun shows have been transferred illegally to residents of another State by Federal firearms licensees and nonlicensed firearms sellers, and have been involved in subsequent crimes including drug offenses, crimes of violence, property crimes, and illegal possession of firearms by felons and other prohibited persons;


Here's my point, in case you missed it.  The language in Section 5 of this bill bemoans the fact that many of these sales are untraceable, yet they go on in Sections 6, 8, 9 and 10 to describe how these firearms (which they said earlier can't be traced) are used in crimes. 

Ok, which is it?  Either you don't know where they go, or you know they're used in the commission of crimes.  You can't have it both ways!!

God this stuff just royally PISSES me off!!

I guess my mistake is in thinking that the issue should be clouded with actual fricking FACTS!!!!
I love waking up every morning knowing that Donald Trump is President!!
