SMDH. Mr, My condolences and sympathies to your families, extends the ability of folks to get guns given Las Vegas. 45 is an incompetent nincompoop dotard. GAH

6. No, as I mentioned in my post, he signed it in February. Nevermind repealing OBAMACARE on the first

day in office. The first thing they did was to repeal an Obama era policy prohibiting gun sales to people who had already been deemed mentally incompetent to manage their own finances. Not competent to sign a check = not competent to buy a gun. Sounds logical to me, but not to the GOP.

By the way, it passed by a vote of 57, with FOUR DEMOCRATS voting for it.

Predictably, the four were Manchin (duh!), Tester, Donnelly and Heitkamp.

3. You're right, my bad, it wasn't today...back in February/March of this year. Here is a UK link...

4. Now the other half of his base can buy guns.

5. A revocation supported by the ACLU.

7. They might as well make it legal for a 7 year old white boy to

go in and buy a gun and ammunition without parental guidance.

8. The LV shooter had a clean background.

That bill would have had no effect on him one way or the other.
