Delete comment from: The War on Guns
Gottlieb said "The bill bans any federal gun registry and carries a 15 year prison term for anyone who violates it.” As we have seen from recent problems with the AG, DOJ, and BATFE, executive privilege will be claimed when the Federal Government violates current law if it suits them.
Secondly, if government review was required by law before any expression of political speech, orally or written, or permission required before one attended his or her local house of worship, then that law would readily be determined to be an infringement of First Amendment rights. Any background checks or licenses to purchase, possess or carry a firearm or ammunition required by law are likewise submitting to government review and are an infringement of Second Amendment rights. It is irrelevant who drafts such unconstitutional legislation.
Gottlieb and CCRKBA have done great things. It is unfortunate that they are involved with this.
