Spending Bill Includes Gun Control Passages That Can Lead To Mass Criminal Investigations of Potential Gun Buyers
National File ^ | March 11, 2022 | Patrick Howley

Second Amendment supporters are scrambling to stop the gun control passages buried in the text of the latest Washington “omnibus” spending bill, which passed the U.S. House of Representatives and then sadly passed the U.S. Senate to advance to the desk of Joe Biden’s White House handlers. A major pro-Second Amendment advocacy group is leading the charge to highlight the buried gun control passages in the more than $1.5 trillion bill. The bill reportedly finances the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) to facilitate a big Democrat cause: using local law enforcement to enforce the gun-grabbing laws of the federal government and to criminally investigate people who fail ridiculous background checks.

It looks like in the omnibus spending bill there are new provisions to criminally investigate anyone who fails a NICS background check. This even though many of the "fails" are false positives.

It also provides financial incentives for the Feds to dragoon local law enforcement to enforce federal laws, even if this runs counter to state law.

Earlier today on a post about the financial impact of the omnibus bill I asked if anyone heard about the 2A aspects. Well, here it is folks.

Do we know yet who the Assistant Democrats that voted for this were?

Probably the same bunch that passed the infrastructure boondoggle.

We must establish the Patriot Party with irrefutable vetting of all candidates, and a commitment to take only donations from Citizens.. it is time to fight back hard.

If Representatives/Senators are presented with a must-pass 2700 page bill to be passed in the next 24 hours, it’s only natural to expect there to be all kinds of surprises buried in its depths. It is likely that no one person has actually read what Brandon is going to sign into law. It’s how things get done now.

The British tried to take the American colonists’ arms. Didn’t work out so well for them.

All the Constitutional experts can explain how this violates the Constitution, but never the less it will become law and there is nothing we can do about it because Constitution.

Included within the piece..."Simpson of Idaho".

I do hope that we can produce a good potential candidate to primary this apparent RINO.

Ugh.

Whoever they are, I'm sure they're the lesser of two evils, playing 4D chess, really "severe conservatives," "electable," and only interested in bipartisanship......we just have to vote for them because the alternative would be liberals who vote for $1.5 trillion spending bills that includes border security for every country but the US and riddled with gun grabbing provisions.

oh, wait....

Nothing "apparent" about Simpson...he is Pelosi's favorite Republican. A 22-year backbencher who is totally incompetent but the Idaho republican party machine keeps him in power.

Bryan Smith, an Idaho Falls attorney, is running against him in the primary...and because doofus Simpson is pushing to remove dams from the Snake River, there is a good chance we may be rid of this dip shit. The downstream dairy farmers and other ag producers are really pissed at Simpson.
