Firearms Bill HR45 Mr. RUSH introduced JANUARY 6, 2009?

[Linda C]

Do you want govt to control your firearms? Why must they control legitimate firearms? How will this control illegal firearms?

I don't see the point in controlling legal firearms since it still won't control the illegal ones. It aimed at just restricting law biding citizens.
Criminals will always be able to get them and isn't that who they should aim at controlling?

If this is to protect us then shouldn't they get rid of the Secret Service to reduce spending?

The Obama administration wants to abolish the 2nd amendment even if through stealth means.

It has little to do with crime prevention and everything to do with the right to bear arms against a tyrannical Govt.

oh good lord....

i read it...but i am having trouble understanding...is this saying anyone who owns a gun must be licensed??? wow...they are gonna' have real problems in the inner cities then huh? cuz' i am thinkin' those involved in illegal activities are NOT gonna' register willingly...

only the good, law abiding, citizens will be licensed...and well...hum... thinkin' i may become a criminal... the government has no right to know what i own...i don't use them illegally...i don't rob stores or shoot up schools... i am an american and i have the RIGHT guaranteed under the constitution to keep and bear arms....

God Bless America!

Introducing a bill doesn't even come close to its passing, especially since it had no co-sponsors.

I wonder if anybody is noticing that Obama was not President when this bill was introduced.

Hitler's first action was to license all gun owners. It made it easier to confiscate them. I ain't registering sh**. EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!

First, your link is NOT to a site, but to a file, which I am not going to download.

Second, if you had a sincere question, you'd post pertinent quotes from the bill so we'd know what it said, rather than trying to trick us into downloading whatever file you link to.

Third, "legitimate"? Are you referring to rapid-fire weaponry and armor-piercing ammo? Sane people don't think it's a good idea for lots of people to be running around with such things.

Criminals can now easily get such things because we don't have laws controlling them: they get them at gun shows, or steal them.

Not all killings by lethal weapons are done by criminals; many happen by accident.

???? Get rid of the Secret Service? About what are you babbling.

Most Americans agree with us sane people in not wanting lots of criminals, crazy people, and children to have easy access to WMDs.
