My point was to continue the fight. We can take this legislation, work to get the language removed and if not work, make sure ammuntion isn't banned in another bill. We can't work for that bill if we don't have a clear pro-gun majority. If we had 80 milion gun owners working for it, we can make it happen.
Join the NRA, call your legislators and activate those gun owners who aren't doing anything. You can worry on another day.
Be Ever Vigilant!
where did I suggest that we should not support the anti-lawsuit bill?
nowhere.
I simply pointed out the way a similarly phrased law on safety measures went from optional for the end-user to mandatory.
As a reminder: Never believe the government when they say a law's reach shall not be extended.
We're 2 years away from a new congress and 4 years away from a new president and another new congress.
I absolutely hate large bills. What other mischief from congress critters and staff (yes, staff. It has happened that some crat staffers inserted language into a bill and it was passed without being caught) are hidden in this bill?
If Craig wants to do something for the American people he needs to pass a law that limits all new laws to no more than 4 pages.
I use http://www.outdrs.net for my isp. They give a buck a month for every subscriber to the NRA (or gun/hunting group of your choice).
I don't like it, but I'm confident that SEN Craig's amendment was crafted in the long term interest of RKBA and the domestic firearms industry.
