As always the devil is in the details. The dems have included magazines and some other gun parts in the law that they want as the replacement. Reps do not have the votes to stop the law, Reps are supporting a clean, no change in existing law renewal for 5 or 10 years.Texas TopCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08852775469061507190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-77509756313291250762013-11-29T15:22:48.723-05:002013-11-29T15:22:48.723-05:00And despite all that she recently advocated reauth...And despite all that she recently advocated reauthorizing the anti-plastic gun law. <br /><br />Because, you know, banning things makes them not exist...Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18382683082580500698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-37093768645934464472013-11-29T12:35:17.797-05:002013-11-29T12:35:17.797-05:00I provided enough stories similar to yours and Emi...I provided enough stories similar to yours and Emily's to a liberal at my previous job, that he stopped using the phrase "common sense".

My spouse's father has decided to buy us a pistol for the holidays. He lives out of state. Federal law makes it illegal for him to transfer the gun to us without going through an FFL. State law makes it illegal for the FFL to transfer the gun to us without a purchase permit. To get the purchase permit, we need to go to the sheriff's office in person, down town, week days only, during business hours (because no one works for a living) fill out an application for and then pay for a purchase permit. Then 8-10 business days later, assuming we don't get a letter in the mail telling us we're denied, we have to then go back to the sheriff's office, in person to pick up the permits. Only then can we legally obtain our holiday gift, and we're lucky we don't live in the next county over where we would need to bring two unrelated character witnesses to sign affidavits to get my permit.<br /><br />And yet, we could just go to his home, he could hand us the gun and we could drive home. No one would know and the chances of anyone ever finding out are slim to none. But we won't. We'll jump through the hoops, we'll beg for our biscuits like good dogs, and we'll do it because as my spouse said "we want to do it legally". Because we aren't criminals. Yet just a couple weeks ago, a little girl was killed by an AD when she found a loaded gun that her father, a felon on probation had obtained illegally. Hoops and dances for the law abiding, while the criminals continue to be criminals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6322916946732811685.post-83991344734863202722013-11-29T08:56:59.161-05:002013-11-29T08:56:59.161-05:00That book is on my wish list, she has done everyon...That book is on my wish list, she has done everyone a service by writing it.libertymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987591250148492879noreply@blogger.com
