Gun Laws And What The Second Amendment Intended - Seattle Times

75. simple explanations

1. the gun lobby fights every attempt to add any controls on gun sales.
"why would the "firearms industry" not want the same level of regulation applied to every gun sold"

Simple searches on the internet confirm this.

2. Why do you suppose those sales were exempted in 1994 in the first place? Why hasn't a single solitary bill ever emerged a judiciary committee regardless who chairs the committee? Since 1994! It is so simple. They can't find a way around the commerce clause.

Anytime a gun control bill is proposed, the NRA starts to threaten retaliation at the polls. Remember what the NRA was saying about Gore? Again, there were public statements bragging that they cost him his home state. It's not the Commerce Clause issue.

3. I don't know how you can speak about what the Brady people ware thinking.

4. Just because you haven't been on an NRA website doesn't change the fact that they spend lots of money trying to change the outcome of elections. It would be about time for rich people to support the gun control side as human massacres don't appear to be enough to make a lot of gun supporters look at reasonable controls to limit the damage inflicted on society by their fetish.
