Couple observations.
It’s going to be easier to run for Congress than it is to own a firearm.
As long as we are checking mental health background maybe we check the mental health of Congress. But that would be moot. My favorite Mark Twain -let’s say you’re an idiot. Let’s say you’re a member of Congress-but I repeat myself.

They know its unconstitutional and they are in violation of their sacred oath to defend the constitution. Their acts are and continue to be treason.

There are roughly 100M gun owners, and not all of them conservatives. Most will disregard the law, realizing that enforcement will be impossible. Most law enforcement will ignore or defy orders to enforce it, and those few that do will encounter resistance.

The question is whether or not this proposed law will trigger serious resistance if passed. The more damaging effort is likely to be waiving gun manufacturers' protection against being sued. That alone could destroy the American arms manufacturing industry. As usual with such efforts, it will likely inspire replacement by smuggling and domestic production of "ghost" guns and ammunition.

An alternative is improvements in airgun technology. These unregulated weapons are now capable of taking down big game, with some being credible sniper weapons, much quieter than even suppressed conventional firearms. Quick change compressed air "magazines" and projectile chargers could make these as effective as the feared "assault" weapons Biden seeks to ban.

Owning a gun will be impossible for most people. The information on the gun owner will be widely disseminated allowing any agency or representative of an agency to remove weapons for any reason, real or imagined. To infringe means to encroach in any manner no matter how slight. This is complete destruction of the right to protect yourself. It authorizes the infringement of any authority against any citizen. It is time to move, but where?

Here in the People’s Republic of Illinois to own a firearm and buy ammo we must have a FOID. Firearm Owners Identification card. It entails a few bucks and a background check. So before I even think about a purchase my background has been checked. This is administered by Illinois State Police. ISP.
Years ago we law abiding citizens would be angered when it took 4-6 weeks to get the card. It is now running past 7-9 months depending on who you talked to last.
Then we have our Concealed Carry License. CCL. It requires a FOID.
16 hours of classroom. Actual live fire scoring on the range. $200 for the classes, $150 for the actual CCL -wait time right now is 9 months. Again admin by ISP. You can probably read our minds when we jump through all of these hoops just to exercise a right we already have while-the ISP was spending their time enforcing our gov restaurant closures for covid.
One of the main things I learned in the classes was all of the options the government already has to confiscate firearms. Not radicals grousing about the government this or the gov that but actual on the book infringements.
If your girl friend boy friend ex spouse tells the authorities you’re nuts then you’re nuts and the guns go away.
They have the right (HIPPA?) to obtain medical records. If you tell your doc you’ve been feeling blue. Bye bye guns. This is not a crazy guy running from black helicopters. These laws are already there.
Anybody here try to buy any 9mm ammo lately? The most popular caliber in the WORLD!

I told you so, they announced this on Sunday. Not a business day! Sneaky.

Everyone knows this is unConstitutional. But that's a sideline. What this is is just more evidence that the Democrats are intent on destroying the Constitution altogether and re-making this nation into another socialist hellhole. They want to see the nation dragged into civil war while they loot everything. Disgusting that they may just get their wish.

By a Texan no less. What do you suppose the cowardly powers that shouldn’t be pay these no name politicians to introduce this slop? You know she didn’t dream this up alone.

what firearms. I dont have any firearms.....

Yeah, I heard about this bill. I understand it's gotten legs, unlike similar efforts in the past. This one may go quite a ways through the system.

Sorry. All my guns fell out of the boat last summer.

The Dems already started there assault on the freedoms of of US citizens they just passed HR #5 in the House and expected to pass in the Senate which the Equality Act. Which which severely damage our !st Amendment Rights. HR #165 which is being commented on here the Dems my attempt to attached it to the Covid Omnibus Pork Bill or there is two smaller anti-gun bills that have been introduced on the floor of the HR that could be attached to the Covid Bill that could do considerable damage to the Second Amendment. One is the Safe Gun Act to give grants to independent researchers to produce a electronically controlled firearms. The firearms industry is excluded from those grants. The second is that background checks for new purchases of firearms be held up to 90 days on file instead of 24 hrs then disposed of.
