House Passes Democrat Bill Criminalizing Private Gun Sales

Original Article

Posted By: hershey, 3/11/2021 1:22:07 PM

The U.S. House of Representatives passed universal background check gun control Thursday, criminalizing private gun sales conducted apart from an FBI background check. The legislation, H.R. 8, sponsored by Rep. Mike Thompson (D-CA), passed by a vote of 227 to 203. H.R. 8 would expand retail point-of-sale background checks so as to cover private points-of-sale. This will criminalize an individual who sells a 5-shot revolver to a lifelong neighbor, unless that neighbor first undergoes a National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check, conducted by the FBI.

Comments:

Probably won't make it through the Senate, but still, what part of 'private' don't they understand...? It sure won't stop 'out of the trunk' sales in ghetto cities...

Ratcheting up the gun confiscation plan which really is the Number 1 item on the communist death democrats totalitarian agenda. Do not trust the Senate at all. The republicans will give in to a compromise of some sort instead of closing ranks and opposing this so-called bill. Passed 227 to 203. Need to check if any republicans in the house voted to take away our 2nd amendment rights.

I'm afraid the Deep State will put a target on Ol' Joe and get rid of him. It would accomplish removing Biden for Harris and almost instantly get rid of all guns. If they can steal our election and create a fake virus why wouldn't they try that.

This gun control bill, if passed into law, will just become a tool to harass law abiding gun owners, as gun runners and the people who hold and sell unlawful guns, including criminals and intending terrorists will never abide by that proposed law.

Since most private sales are to close friends, or relatives, nothing much will change. Except that more guns will get lost and their former owners will find money at about the same time. Meanwhile, someone else will lose some money and find a gun.

OK then, I'm going to give my next door neighbor a gift of my gun. And he is going to give me a gift of $200. The two are not related in any way. Since Texas doesn't require us to register guns, who will know any different?

I read an article about 15 years ago about how the po po in NY (where guns have to be registered) keep tabs on the obituaries so when someone dies the guns are 1) confiscated to make sure they can't be handed down and 2) whoever's receiving them has to go through the entire registration process before they can get them.

The Democrat House of Representatives ==> the best advertisement for selling guns there is. Expect the remaining guns on the shelves in Gun Stores to disappear and the remaining ammo. Stock up while you can. BTW, black powder cap and ball revolvers currently do not require a background check, if you can find them. Unfortunately the percussion caps used in the c&b revolvers are like the ammo supply, short or out of stock.

#12, yeah, my husband and I were out on a boat on a very large lake, and we just happened to have all of our guns with us. A freak wave overturned our boat, and we lost all of our guns. They are on the bottom of that lake somewhere. So sad. If you say they were stolen and that wasn't true, that is a felony -- not worth the risk. But if you lost them, that is just life...

Okay, now it's a burden for a person to get a drivers license or other identification in order to vote...a sacred right. But getting an FBI background check that costs money (kinda like a poll tax) is no impediment to exercising 2A-guaranteed rights. So, where are the lawsuits?

Michigan rules: You can privately sell a 'long gun' to anyone. Pistols/handguns both the seller and buyer have to register with the police and they do a background check on the buyer.

Since Election Day 2020, President Donald Trump has claimed, without evidence, that there were some shenanigans in the presidential election — voter fraud, dead people voting, and the like. Social media was having none on it. In a 24-hour period between mid-morning Thursday and Friday, Twitter censored six of Trump’s posts. The posts weren’t immediately visible. Instead, there was this note attached by Twitter: “Some or all of the content shared in this Tweet is disputed and might be misleading about an election or other civic process.”   Corrections*

Gov. DeSantis Introduces ‘Anti-Mob’ Legislation To Allow Floridians To Shoot Rioters And Looters 20 replies
Posted by hershey 11/11/2020 3:06:05 PM Post Reply
Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has proposed an “anti-mob” bill that would allow residents to shoot rioters and looters who target businesses following nationwide unrest. The law would expand the state’s self-defense law, which currently forbids “the use of force in defense of property,” by increasing what constitutes a “forcible felony,” according to the Miami Herald. DeSantis seeks to make looting or “interruption or impairment” of a business such a felony, thereby justifying deadly force to prevent it, the local outlet reported.

Like we’ve said for a while, the fix is in. We turn out attention to Wisconsin which is reporting 90% voter turnout. Considering dead people are still on the voter rolls and likely 20% or more of the residents simply didn’t vote, we can officially call an unambiguous Pinocchio on this one.  According to the Milwaukee City Wire:   Seven City of Milwaukee voting wards reported more 2020 U.S. Presidential election votes than they had registered voters, according to an analysis of results and Secretary of State files. Five of them are in the city’s eleventh aldermanic ward, on the city’s far Southwest Side. Correction:

The first lady's plans are a throwback to the era of Jacqueline Kennedy, whom Trump has said she admires. According to the White House, Trump aims to restore the garden's original footprint to its 1962 redesign, which Kennedy helped oversee and which President John F. Kennedy commissioned from his friend Rachel "Bunny" Mellon, an heiress to the Listerine fortune who was an amateur authority on horticulture and landscape architecture.   Correction*

Now that the implications of the Harris/Biden administration are setting in, my Democrat friends (yes, I do have a few) are becoming very embarrassed. They bought into the propaganda that all the turmoil in Washington was created by the erratic and immoral behavior of Donald Trump. Their vote for Harris/Biden was a vote to return to normal.

Eli Lilly & Co says its combination antibody therapy is effective at treating mild to moderate cases of COVID-19. The treatment, a mixture of drugs bamlanivimab and etesevimab, was developed by Indianapolis-based Lilly and the Canadian company AbCellera. It recognizes the virus once a person is infected and attaches to it, preventing the pathogen from entering human cells, and therefore neutralizing it. In trial data released on Wednesday, Eli Lilly said the combination reduced the risk of hospitalization and death by 87 percent compared to a placebo. The results are an improvement of an earlier study of the combination, which reduced the risk of hospitalization and death by 70 percent.
