I'm quite sure that the bad guys won't be restricted any less if these laws are created.

first statement puts it in a nutshell
"7
‘(1) IN GENERAL- It shall be unlawful for any person other than a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector to possess a qualifying firearm on or after the applicable date, unless that person has been issued a firearm license-"
a bill to license gun ownership.
what "qualifying" firearm will be on the list is anyone's guess.
Personally, i don't see it reaching the floor for a vote
Wishful thinking on my part perhaps
The mood of the electorate in this country isn't for more gun control.
If the bill actually ever makes it out of comity and on to floor for a vote, if won't pass.
If it does pass, the dems will have done more to energize the rep base than anything they could of done for themselves.
Dems will lose the house on this issue
at worst, i see some types of "assault weapons" that might be a "qualifying firearm"
I'm considering getting my Federal Firearms License .
$200 and some paper work and an interview with a ATF agent is all it takes
Then i could buy guns wholesale :wink:

it covers almost all firearms
‘(36) The term ‘qualifying firearm’
(A) means
(i) any handgun; or
(ii) any semiautomatic firearm that can accept any detachable ammunition feeding device;
(B) does not include any antique.’.
Bobby Rush (a former black panther) introduces this trash legislation every year, it goes no where. Obama doesn't even support it.
By the way the 9Th circuit (one of the most liberal) ruled today that States can't pass legislation that infringes on the INDIVUAL RIGHT TO KEEP & BARE ARMS. Many State gun laws are going to be history. Specifically the States that ban ownership. The gun control loonies are in for a rough ride.
