but some of the new crop of Democratic freshmen helped push it over the finish line...

THAT’S the shocking part.

Something is amiss.

Illegal alien invaders do not have Second Amendment rights. The Bill or Rights only applies to Americans. It does not apply to foreign freeloaders in the country illegally.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Well...a small ray of sunshine if Trump's promised veto gets overridden.

This is a great way to get Dems to NOT back their own legislation as it moves to the Senate.

Only works if ICE will do its job and enforce the law. It cannot be that hard to find illegal aliens in the US. Just go to Walmart.

The 200 who voted against are just fearful their illegal alien constituents won’t vote for them anymore if they aren’t free to purchase and bear arms. After all, it would be “raciss” to notify ICE of anything to prevent South American foreign nationals from defending their families on U.S. soil just because they came here without some documents. THAT’S JUST NOT WHO WE ARE, people!

"But on the odd chance that it does actually pass, this amendment would be a positive development."

Positive how? It would establish a gun registry that isn't being called by design a gun registry.

I am friggin outraged that the Dems want to infringe upon my Rights but not enforce the existing laws on illegal aliens and further, seek to protect illegal aliens from our laws and specifically, the very SAME new law they are pushing upon citizens !!!

Today’s statistics....

Gun deaths in 2018 3,338
Pedestrian deaths in 2018 6,227

USA Today headline (3hrs ago)

Pedestrian deaths hit 28-year high, suggesting SUV boom raises safety risks

[grobdriver]

This would be the first thing stripped out of any conference with the Senate should they pass a matching bill.

[old-ager]

indicating only that the leftists value eliminating the second amendment more than they value open borders

[BTerclinger]

The bill sucks with it or without it.

It will lead to TOTAL REGISTRATION of all firearms, background checks if you hand your gun to a family member or friend at the range (or God forbid loan them a gun to defend themselves against an abusive spouse), and because it lengthens the time the FBI can do a NICS check, the Feds can then suspend all NICS checks due to “tech problems” or “emergencies”, INDEFINITELY.

Anyone who does not call your Senators and the WH to CRUSH THIS BILL is foolish.
