    Hiding from reality
    This is constantly being pushed. Bills are introduced year after year with deceiving titles that the ignorant blindly believe is a good idea. What leftist do not realize is that the important weapons we have are our minds and our will. The tool to execute a plan can be anything, from a screwdriver to basic household items that form an IED.

    In a way, I'm glad these types of bills are being introduced, or at least pushed, right now.
    We are just months before a general election, which means nothing will actually get done, only argued about ad nauseum until election day.

    What it does accomplish is to show just how radical the left wants to go.
    The more of this inane diatribe the left espouses, the more people they are going to alienate.

    Gun Violence Prevention and Community Safety Act of 2020
    This bill makes various changes to the federal framework governing the sale, transfer, and possession of firearms and ammunition. Among other things, the bill does the following:

    • generally requires individuals to obtain a license to purchase, acquire, or possess a firearm or ammunition;
    • raises the minimum age—from 18 years to 21 years—to purchase firearms and ammunition;
    • establishes new background check requirements for firearm transfers between private parties;
    • requires law enforcement agencies to be notified following a firearms-related background check that results in a denial;
    • creates a statutory process for a family or household member to petition a court for an extreme risk protection order to remove firearms from an individual who poses a risk of committing violence;
    • restricts the import, sale, manufacture, transfer, or possession of semiautomatic assault weapons and large capacity ammunition feeding devices;
    • restricts the manufacture, sale, transfer, purchase, or receipt of ghost guns (i.e., guns without serial numbers);
    • makes trafficking in firearms a stand-alone criminal offense;
    • requires federally licensed gun dealers to submit and annually certify compliance with a security plan to detect and deter firearm theft;
    • removes limitations on the civil liability of gun manufacturers;
    • allows the Consumer Product Safety Commission to issue safety standards for firearms and firearm components;
    • establishes a community violence intervention grant program; and
    • promotes research on firearms safety and gun violence prevention.
    In a nutshell, this is the proposed bill.

    Senator Obtuse Taylor’s Bill in the last Indiana Legislative session did a world of good... for pro 2A!

    Sponsored by Hank , "Guam will Capsize" Johnson and co-sponsored by the usual Dem's. I'm sure it's a great well thought out bill that will solve all the problems of "gun violence".
