California Senator de Leon and his bill SB 798, is the subject of a writing posted on AmmoLand.com today. This is the airsoft, BB, pellet gun bill we oppose that was drastically amended right before the summer recess that our legislators are still on. The bill now calls for the repealing of the pre-emption law in California and would allow cities and counties to make their own laws governing airsoft guns. Imagine the mess that would create! Imagine what manufacturers will do? See GOC summation
Because I have an intense interest in the scandal surrounding the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF&E) I read through an article from the Tucson Citizen today, finding that the justifiable investigation of the ATF's operation, called Gun Walker sometimes and other things other times, is continuing to uncover, expose if you will, new elements to the story. All the elements point to an Agency completely out of step with the laws of our land, and completely in step with the agenda of an anti-gun government administration.
Human Events posted an article titled, The Debt Deal and Guns, which surmises that it is not too far fetched to believe that guns will enter into the final equasion, their thought process being thus: the debt ceiling agreement calls for the creation of a bipartisan joint committee that will come up with a plan to save the federal government over a trillion dollars. Congress is not allowed to get involved, meaning that nothing is immune from being included in this plan. An anti-gun White House supports the United Nations Small Arms Treaty, which we know will undercut our Second Amendment, so it is not off the thinking chart to suppose, expect, a provision somewhere in the bill that supplants or circumvents our Constitutional gun rights.
AmmoLand.com posted another interesting article from which I learned a few good things....Both Presidential Candidates Ron Paul and Michele Bachmann have returned their National Association for Gun Rights Presidential Survey's, and both were 100% pro-gun. The tid-bit of info that was news to me was that Candidate, former Governor of Massachusetts Mitt Romney, had signed a permanent "assault weapons" ban as Governor and boasted about it in a press release in 2004.
Some days there is no news worth writing about, other days, the news about gun issues is abundant.....Did you see our website article on the proposed new provisions for the California Republican Party Platform? Don't miss that one!
