    What really shows that they are going after "scary looking" firearms is the Ruger mini-14. The "tactical" version is banned by name but no other ones.

    The house is pushing a bill though the Judiciary Sub Committee. This thing is Nasty - Safe Storage requirements, standard capacity mag ban, AR pistol ban.

    What's scary is that there are a small number of RINOs in the Senate that, if the bill wasn't as robust as it currently is, would have possibly voted with enough numbers to stop a filibuster. With how greedy the dems are with this one, however, there's no way it's passing the Senate. Hopefully that keeps us in the clear until the midterms, where this most likely won't happen again for some time.

    I've had several people tell me this.
    I don't know anymore with so many Rino Republicans in office.

    Ah... the Senate will save us.

    I think I've seen this movie before.

    It looks like the House is going to run through a bunch of test votes that they know won't get through the Senate, just to try to put the Republicans on the record as being the party of the fringe.

    Biden is in PA today pushing for this to get passed. Something to note for those few left that still think compromising with these jackwagons will gain you anything.

    It is also worth noting that he is in PA, pushing for gun-control, in an election year with an open Senate seat on the line. That they would even consider that a good move is not a good sign for our long-term prospects.

    All they're doing is posturing for mid-term elections. They know they're in dire straits due to the disastrous state of the country. Everyone knows an AWB will never pass in this senate. They just want to make it look like they're doing something so their short-sighted voters put them back in office.

    Hopefully if it makes it through the House the Senate blocks it. My guess is it’s an attempt to motivate voters this fall.
    Do you really think Sinema, much less, Manchin, will vote for this? Or that either will vote to eliminate the filibuster for this?

    We must get a lot of the same stuff in our youtuber feeds... was just about to post this. You've beat me on a couple of things.
    I'm retired.
    And instead of catching up on work around the house, I go online.

    Course, I did some work this morning, so... I guess I am not TOTALLY lazy.
