I specified quite explicitly in 491 that I am talking about the gun control proposals in this thread. People are discussing here what they think, not solely or even mostly pending legislation. Almost nothing has been said about the vague 'framework' in the Senate or the House bill.

Well now you know. And you can stop repeating yourself about half the country being criminalized.

By the way, typically, legislative "Bans" are not retroactive.

I'm glad you've walked it back to only eradicating constitutional liberties for the next generation.

Well, fortunately, the Bill of Rights is fluid. Its changed for the better in the past. Let's hope it changes for the better in the future.

And hopefully the expansive ruling in Heller doesn't doom us all to continued excessive cycles of gun violence.

Let’s hope our rights continue to remain rights instead of temporal privileges to be voided anytime people find it politically convenient.

I think you are confusing political convenience with "anytime mass shootings become normal"

Still awaiting to here why criminals are going to surrender or not use almost every magazine in existence because a ban is passed. I’m sure this will solve psycho’s going psycho.

Rest assured that criminals will continue to commit crimes with guns that may be banned in the future, due to the absurd history of gun sales in our country. The point is to slow the future proliferation of such weapons. You know, so maybe we don't get to 500 Million guns in this country so soon.

Think of these laws as tourniquet to try to SLOW the bleeding.

Plus one. Same people that said you can’t infringe my freedoms of speech have been successfully sued for defamation when they act like jackasses.
