Hank “Tippy” Johnson [D-GA, sadly], noted loon and midget/giant cage match fan, has filed HR 5717 the Gun Violence Prevention and Community Safety Act of 2020 in the US House. It has everything a violence-enabling victim disarmament advocate could possibly want: national gun owner licensing, an “assault weapon” ban, a suppressor ban, ex parte “red flag” confiscations, and more.
But the kicker is this section on owner licensing.
I wrote about this bill back in January, when Senator Fauxcahontas Warren (Squaw-MA) filed a Senate companion bill, S. 3254. GovTrack now gives it a 24% chance of being enacted, so let’s take another look.
Ҥ 932. License to own firearms and ammunition
“(a) In general.—Except otherwise provided in this section, it shall be unlawful for any individual who is not licensed under this section to knowingly purchase, acquire, or possess a firearm or ammunition.
“(b) Eligibility.—An individual shall be eligible to receive a license under this section if the individual—
“(1) has attained 21 years of age; and
“(2) has completed training in firearms safety, including—
“(A) a written test, to demonstrate knowledge of applicable firearms laws;
“(B) hands-on testing, including firing testing, to demonstrate safe use of a firearm;
Did you spot it…the now all-too-common Catch-22?
To possess a firearm, you must be licensed. To become licensed, you must first possess a firearm, at least for “hands-on testing” and “firing testing.” But “testing” is not one of the exceptions “otherwise provided.”
Current gun owners would be allowed to keep their existing firearm unlicensed. But no one who is not currently (as of when the Attorney General begins issuing “Federal firearm owner’s licenses”) in possession of a firearm could get a license and lawfully possess a firearm ever again.
And there you have it…lawful civilian gun culture eradicated in a single generation.
One might dismiss this as a simple error by a man with some obvious mental issues, but he didn’t draft this on his own. And these impossible-to-comply-with provisions are becoming standard practice in gun people control bills.
And so it goes.
Who says that our constitution ENSURES that the bills and amendments that have been made
LEGALLY, MUST be followed, and NOT OVERRIDDEN by arbitrary ill willed nonsensical bullsh**
put forth and proposed by communistic type and tyrannical anti-American illegally seated politicians ?
WHO ? Well by golly, I believe that would be REAL AMERICANS SAY ! PATRIOTS would and should
be yet ANOTHER good answer ! This type of dangerous radical drivel should not even be permitted
to be introduced in the House NOR the Senate for discussion, MUCH LESS SERIOUSLY DISCUSSED
AS HAVING even the POTENTIAL FOR MERIT OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER !
Those that ARE, or even WOULD, actually DO SO…are COMPLETELY MAD ! THAT is being said
as a statement, and NOT as a question. Those that ARE ATTEMPTING to USURP the Constitution
of our Country are NOTHING SHORT OF ENEMIES,of the PEOPLE, the COUNTRY, and of our
GREAT REPUBLIC !!! Those that would agree with these proposals, must be STOPPED, and
removed from further potential to harm this country now, or in the future, for the benefit of this Country
and it’s survival. The authors of this have proven that they have NO RESPECT for our Constitution
AS WRITTEN, and should NEVER be allowed to yield so much as a pen with which to sign their own
immediate resignation, or lose the pen and be imprisoned for attempted intentional usurpation of
the LAWS of the REPUBLIC !
