They are at it again.........

Those who would take away our 2nd Amendment rights are at it again

Blair Holt Firearm Licensing & Record of Sale Act of 2009

1/6/2009--Introduced.
Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009 - Amends the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act to prohibit a person from possessing a firearm unless that person has been issued a firearm license under this Act or a state system certified under this Act and such license has not been invalidated or revoked. Prescribes license application, issuance, and renewal requirements.
Prohibits transferring or receiving a qualifying firearm unless the recipient presents a valid firearms license, the license is verified, and the dealer records a tracking authorization number. Prescribes firearms transfer reporting and record keeping requirements. Directs the Attorney General to establish and maintain a federal record of sale system.

Prohibits:
(1) transferring a firearm to any person other than a licensee, unless the transfer is processed through a licensed dealer in accordance with national instant criminal background check system requirements, with exceptions;

(2) a licensed manufacturer or dealer from failing to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements of this Act;

(3) failing to report the loss or theft of the firearm to the Attorney General within 72 hours;

(4) failing to report to the Attorney General an address change within 60 days; or

(5) keeping a loaded firearm, or an unloaded firearm and ammunition for the firearm, knowingly or recklessly disregarding the risk that a child is capable of gaining access, if a child uses the firearm and causes death or serious bodily injury.
Prescribes criminal penalties for violations of firearms provisions covered by this Act.

Directs the Attorney General to:
(1) establish and maintain a firearm injury information clearinghouse;

(2) conduct continuing studies and investigations of firearm-related deaths and injuries; and

(3) collect and maintain current production and sales figures of each licensed manufacturer.

Authorizes the Attorney General to certify state firearm licensing or record of sale systems

Basically this would make it illegal to own a firearm - any rifle with a clip or ANY pistol unless:

*It is registered.
*You are fingerprinted.
*You supply a current Driver's License.
*You supply your Social Security #.
*You will submit to a physical & mental evaluation at any
time of their choosing.
*Each update - change or ownership through private or
public sale must be reported and costs $25 - Failure to
do so you automatically lose the right to own a firearm
and are subject up to a year in jail.
*There is a child provision clause on page 16 section 305
stating a child-access provision. Gun must be locked
and inaccessible to any child under 18.


Thanks to my Best old Friend in the Great White North for the reminder......I put a widget thingie over on the left to track where the bill is at any given time.....

This is an important if not the most important personal Liberty Bill in a long time. "Any Government that does not fear its Constituents is a Tyranny".....I don't know who said that, so maybe I did.

The entire bill isHERE

Pay attention Folkes,

Yep. This came out a few days ago, and as many of us who can should blog it.

Obama's plan to take over the census, Rahm Emmanuel's gun control proposal resurfacing here - either we are the frog in the pot of increasingly hot soon to be boiling water, or we stand up and say "NO!"

I'm guessing our elected official (Democrats, primarily) aren't going to listen no matter what we say - try calling Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein, it is the same as talking down the Memory Hole. They don't care. So then what happens?

I got this a few days ago from my cousin in San Bernardino. He ran it through snopes and came up with nothing. I will check with GOA and NRA before running with it.

This bill will not go anywhere. Bobby Rush the former Black Panther who cannot speak english introduced it and there is no co-sponsor. HR 45 as it is called is shit but it wouldn't hurt to send your commie legislators an e-mail stating your position.I even sent one to Buckwheat Rush and called him an asshole and I was being nice.

This kind of thing is SO Stalinist, yet the ones coming up with this garbage actually "think" they're doing us a favor. Some of them. The others are just evil.

This is the biggest load of horse squeeze I've seen in a while. We can't even enforce the gun laws on the books NOW! How in in the H-E-double-toothpicks does this jackass think we can enforce something this assinine?

Sure. They can have my guns. Bullets first....!

From a different point of view-- do these folks have no idea how relatively easy it is to make guns?
