I like the above but...

I don't think in the current congress this bill has a snowballs chance in DeathValley, Ca. in August of getting passed and signed into law....

Obama and the Bradycats will fight it tooth and nail.

I sure hope they prove me wrong though!

The only reason there are any guns anywhere in the world is because they are being bought at gun shows using the "gun show loophole" and smuggled all over the world. If we'd stop making guns here in the States, they'd magically disappear, dontchaknow? :celebrate
