What does it have to do with AP.......are they unhappy because they didn´t find it first? Or are they unhappy because it was found? Unfortunately probably the latter.

AssPress is angry that the truth got out.

Be very clear that "universal background checks" is Phase One - where they get the information about EVERY gun being sold, traded or gifted in the country. After they have this information, they can set the bans in place and come and confiscate them.

We have to stop this "universal background check". For the first 194 years of this country´s existence, all guns other than machine guns were treated the same as a screwdriver or hammer - NO government involvement. Crime is DECREASING, largely because almost all states have some sort of reasonable concealed carry laws and more GOOD people than ever are going armed.

Stop the "universal background checks" which equals Universal Gun Registration.

45 years of federal gun dealers and background checks have done ZERO except cost gun owners money and inconvenience - the only time that crime inflected downward was when ´Shall Issue´ concealed carry laws started passing in state after state.

I wish Rush would spell out the story instead of being all over the place. I know he needs to use up his 3/hrs but give us who, what, where etc up front then ramble.

Meanwhile will any reporter at the networks or in a newspaper report this confiscation of guns memo? They will not or they will do what AP is doing.

This is the modus operandi of this administration. They float ideas like canceling medical coverage for vet returning from overseas, then when the screaming starts, say it was just an idea and not policy. Same with merging IRAs and Social Security and some sort of a carbon tax. Its revenue and they want it.

Our Fascist Senator Feinstein in fact does support a gun confiscation, and is on record saying so back in 2003.

The Universal Background Check will lead to a national registry, which is the real goal. Next REASONABLE regulations will ensue to ban guns from small portions of the population, such as pick up the guns from anyone accused of domestic violence to protect women, then those accused of hate crimes to protect minorities, then those who schedule visits with a shrink to protect against mental health threats. Eventually then will get to a subset to take the guns in your house, come in the middle of the night and either just take your guns or arrest you for endangering the public.

#2, a slight history correction, until 1934, all guns, INCLUDING Machine Guns, were treated the same as a screwdriver or a hammer. You could buy them via mail-order.

At the beginning of every interview with lawmakers, the first question should be: did you take the Oath of Office freely and without mental reservation?

If they say yes, then demand that they uphold the Constitution, first and foremost and most important.

Insist that they recite the (in this case) Second Amendment... or read it from their copy (or lend them one) of the Constitution.

This may also serve to enlighten some of our uninformed fellow Citizens!

The Second Amendment, like the First, is very clear and succinct.

We´ve allowed Congress to make zillions of laws abridging First and Second Amendment Rights; we´ve allowed "opinion-makers" to do the same, without --at first-- the force of Law and then later, once public opinion has been molded and shaped and often cajoled (threatened), with codification in multifarious laws.

Our Constitution guarantees our Liberty. Every law that activist, busybody legislators make curtail Liberty.

Liberty demands responsible citizenry.

Congressmen need to HEAR from us. We need to call. on many other issues. we can´t allow fatigue to morph into apathy.

Fatigue and apathy are often the intended consequence of activist governments.

This far, and no farther.

Anyone who is accused of domestic violence or made subject to an order of protection is ALREADY relieved of their firearms. Ostensibly temporarily. Sometimes they even get them back.

I´ve been aware of this memo for more than ten days. I´ve sent excerpts to 80 Senators and about two dozen Congressmen.

Then called.

What are YOU doing besides complaining here?

#1 they are unhappy it was found, if they had found it, it would be shredded.

"A"lways "P"imping for obama got their knickers in a twist. Good.

Like I´ve said many times. They can pass all the registration/background checks they want.

I WILL NOT register anything. And. since I´m over 70, if I had a gun, I would have gotten it during the Kennedy administration, so no one in the government knows anything about it. That is, if I had one, of course.

No guns currently owned will have to be registered because no one knows who has what at this point. The problem that I have encountered recently is getting ammo for the guns we have. Everything is on back order for several months. This is how they will control legal gun owners.

I trust no one in government at any level. The local pols are no better than the ones in DC or anywhere else. How many times have you seen a politician take one side and then switch to the other. Gun control has been in the works for many years. We must not allow it to become law. Write, call and VOTE. Obozo and his crew are liars. They want nothing better that to take all guns from the public. At that point we become a nation of slaves. Vote 2014.

You want to know the real kicker? Criminals (or persons disallowed from owning firearms) cannot be compelled to register them because it violates their 5th Amendment right not to incriminate themselves (Haynes v. U.S., 1968).
