Here comes the Abomination or is that Obamanation?
I just read this on the Thomas Register,”Blair Holt’s Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009 (Introduced in House)“.
My first comments are, well, “here we go…” However, reading further I see that currently, this bill has no co-sponsors, but, like everything else, this too can change. It seems that Illinois has a problem with firearms, since Obama already tried to pass similar legislation in that state, but now we have the Congressman of the 1st district pimping this attempt to remove our 2nd ammendment rights.
My curiosity is peaked, and I would like to see others out there who are watching, how much money is going to be wasted in Congress by the “Honorable Mr. Rush” these next two years trying to push this agenda? Is this where the 1st District of Illinois wishes their money spent? How about the rest of you? Is this where our tax dollars in Congress should be focused? If so, let me know…
Is District 1 of Illinois so crime ridden that they feel that restrictions on firearms should be National? I don’t think that the crime issues in District 1 are even remotely felt in my state, and I’m sure it’s not due to our 2nd ammendment rights.

Congressman Rush seems to think that what is best for his TINY (97.84 square miles) District 1 in Illinois is good enough for the rest of the country. How do these people get elected? Is it simply another one of back door Chicago mob style elections? I mean really, where do these people come from? I’m astounded that this Congressman would think that this would make a difference to the crime that the aforementioned counties have. I mean really, Congressman Rush is pushing the envelope here, when his district has suffered approximately 8% unemployment, and only has roughly 700,000 constituents. Is it unreasonable for this Congressman to actually to some work that would help his district?
Imposing more licensing is simply another way to TAX lawful firearms owners. Of course, that’s just what people like Congressman Rush want, unless it’s the Black Panthers.
Here’s a novel idea, Congressman Rush, how about pursuing felons with the existing laws that are one the books, and enforcing those, before you waste our time and money trying to pass over reaching laws on capital hill? These maneuvers are otherwise apparent of your inability to keep your nose out of our President-elect’s ass.
I’m ashamed that you served in the Army, and forgot what weapons are for.
Gaaaaah… I just wanna throw up.
