Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee introduced a bill earlier this month that would enact some of the strictest gun regulations in the history of the country and give the federal government sweeping power to decide who can own a firearm.
The Sabika Sheikh Firearm Licensing and Registration Act, named after a Pakistani exchange student who was murdered in Texas in 2018, would "provide for the licensing of firearm and ammunition possession and the registration of firearms" and "prohibit the possession of certain ammunition."

Might be a great idea for members of congress.

And if this passes, what will YOU do? Think hard on that, it may be coming, sooner than you imagine.

The Federal Government has NO Constitutional authority to do this. ZERO. But with the SCOTUS being what it is, that will not matter.

Someone will decide whether you're fit to own a gun. A biased opinion. With no regard for the law.

"Liberalism is a mental disorder," and yet these deranged Leftists will be the only ones who will be allowed to own a weapon. Some psychopaths go their entire lives undetected not only by the mental heath community but undetected by law enforcement as well.

How about requiring IQ tests for congressmen? That would dissolve the congressional black caucus.

The democrat party is truly anti Constitution and they are totally committed to disarming the country! Make no mistake, gun confiscation is their end game and they will do anything to achieve this goal! If they succeed, it will be the end of the republic and we will be living on our knees as subjects of a ruling elite!

There are not enough qualified psychologists in the USA to evaluate every firearms owner and their family members. Do the Democrats really believe that criminals, intending terrorists, and violent criminal gang members are going to comply with their very overreaching gun control laws, or any laws for that matter? Since they will not, it appears that this proposed radical law is simply another try to harass law abiding firearms owners with firearms bans, fees that they would have to pay liberal psychologists, and new taxes on firearms and ammunition. Democrats should remember that the last big gun control measure that they pushed through Congress caused them to loose control of the Congress for a decade.

As long as this toxic bill strips members of congress of all their security and puts them through the same process, (which would level the playing field) I could be for a trial run of this bill.

Many states do not require anyone to register a gun. Good luck finding all of us.

Roberts will rule that the $800 insurance fee is a tax, confiscation is due process, up is down, good is evil, and so forth. Wait for it. The obvious unconstitutionality of this proposal notwithstanding.
Sheila Jackson Lee is an imbecile and a national embarrassment.

If we can't get them legally, I guess we'll just have to get guns the same way the thugs get them. They don't seem to have a problem.

First, begin with your own security, the new military, yourselves, and then forget about the rest of US; you won't get very far. It's way waaaaaay past dragging time for these people. Keep it up, that's all I can say.

Where is the GOP on this and other EOs that have been issued? Why Are they not coming out publicly about this and the other edicts that have been imposed? Most on this board know the answer and that is why the GOP is done, but I bet you DIck Cheney (Mr Gun Safety) and his daughter will still get to go hunting.

Only if they can prove you've got one.
I'd like to give it a go just for giggles.
If I flunk which I would make sure of what are they going to do about it ?
The constitution does not say that SANE citizens can keep and bear arms does it ?
This is MORE press BS

Yes, gun control laws are intended to harass the law abiding, outlaw “bad guns,” impose confiscatory taxes on guns and ammunition, and bankrupt firearms manufacturers.

Most people who want weapons already have at least one, and they have no intention of giving them up to a Constitutionally illegal Bill law or regulation.
We all want peace, but Democrats seem determined not to give it to us.
They are pushing us toward a war pushing hard.
They might get what they want.

This bill would require too much work, I think. I'm expecting more "false flag" operations. As Ezekiel Emmanel said, "Never let a crisis go to waste."

Lest we forget all of the guns and ammunition the Post Office, Dept of Education, Dept of Environmental Quality bought up during the O'Bummer administration. Ammo prices shot up and the story was that the govt was buying HUGE quantities.

Pure leftist ideology and punishment for us deplorables. If they could somehow find who has legal weapons and confiscated 75% of them, crime would go up, not down. Dontavious and Tyrone, your local, independent drug salesmen are not going to be bothered to register their firearms. Most are barred from owning one anyway due to previous felonies. It is certainly illegal to carry one in Chicago and look at their skyrocketing murder and violent crime rates. No, they want to punish us for wrong-think and are sure they will be ok in their safe, secure, gated communities. It's the poor blacks living in those Dem-run s***holes that won't have any protection from their neighboring ghetto rats.

There will be a Catch-22 in their edict: If you want a gun, they will consider it to be prima Facie evidence that you are crazy.
Therefore no one will be allowed to be armed except for the thugs employed by our rulers.
And in the mean time the new Secretary of Defense is going to 'stand down' the military while he purges anyone who he thinks might have voted for Trump.

Don't be so sarcastic #26, we have seen this before. In the 1930's marijuana was legal as long as you had the proper revenue tax stamp for it. The revenue stamps were all printed up and are now very popular with collectors. But used ones are nonexistant. This is because in order to get the stamp to prove you paid the tax and your weed was legal you needed to bring the pot to a federal office for weighing and taxing. Of course the minute you put your bag of loony lettuce on the counter you were arrested for having untaxed silly seaweed and promptly marched off to the pokey.
Don't ever believe anything, no matter how insanely irrational, is beyond the ability of some government official to attempt.

Is there no depth of evil and tyranny that Leftists will not stoop to? Are you a military vet who was shot at and had PTSD? No self defense for you. Ever been anxious and needed to be treated for anxiety? No self defense for you. First, they will designate all Republicans as terrorists, so they won't be able to get a weapon. The Left will weed out the rest through this unconstitutional process. But thugs who are strung out on opioids, crack, and meth will get weapons through the black market and, therefore, will NOT be subjected to any of this.
