Let's be honest here; while there's not quite the support that progressives were hoping to have in Congress to be able to steamroll over the Constitution and put new gun control laws in force right now, the chances of pro-Second Amendment legislation passing the Democrat-controlled House and Senate stands at zero percent.
However, the fact that anti-gun bills can't make it through the Senate either haven't stopped the usual suspects in Congress from introducing dozens of attempts to infringe on our right to keep and bear arms. This is important. Bills don't usually get passage on their first introduction. It may seem moot to even explore some of these proposals, but the people are making their messages clear to lawmakers, and eventually they're going to have to listen.
For years the civil rights minded people of the country have had to be on the defense, with very little freedom expansion happening on the federal level. Now is a perfect time to go on the offense. I personally appreciate and like to see bills like The Hearing Protection Act and right-to-carry reciprocity related bills introduced, but I think it's time to take things up a notch or two.
To my freedom loving congressmen and women, allow me to give you a few ideas on legislation that you can introduce. Nothing has stopped the progressives from introducing their gunpocalyptic packages of draconian measures, and nothing should stop the freedom lovers from introducing measures in the other direction of an equal magnitude. Here are a few suggestions.... .....
