6. Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers.

How are you getting that all private sales are now to be subject to background checks?...

All Barack is doing is making the first step..TEACHING the Gundealers how to facilitate these checks..AFTER Congress passes the legislation

For goodness sakes you need to keep up the pressure and give your support to Feinstein's bill..I just wish she hadnt testified before congress about her having and carrying a concealed handgun herself.. http://www.mrctv.org/videos/feinstein-1995-her-concealed-carry-permit-i-know-urge-arm-yourself-because-thats-what-i-did

Why couldnt Pelosi do the heavy lifting?? unlike Charles Schumer she has NEVER held a gun

Dont get ahead of yourself and please try to read carefully..your thinking we won and we havnt even gotten to congress yet sheesh
