...and then it gets worse.

It appears that fabian socialists have discovered that people are not happy with the government and hence wish to disarm them (see the link).

The part that worries me the most (frankly the WHOLE thing worries me) is the following:

`(L) A semiautomatic rifle or shotgun originally designed for military or law enforcement use, or a firearm based on the design of such a firearm, that is not particularly suitable for sporting purposes, as determined by the Attorney General. In making the determination, there shall be a rebuttable presumption that a firearm procured for use by the United States military or any Federal law enforcement agency is not particularly suitable for sporting purposes, and a firearm shall not be determined to be particularly suitable for sporting purposes solely because the firearm is suitable for use in a sporting event.'.

This allows government to "define" on the fly what firearm is "suitable" for the peasants to have. How nice of them...

Guess it's time to stock up.

Luckily for us this has no co-sponsors as yet (or none brave enough). My take is that this may not pass as the politicians are aware that trust for the government is at an all time low (what with the Haliburton/FEMA camps being built for our protection). I fear that while this one may not pass, that after the next presidential election that a FAR worse bill will be proposed essentially evicerating the Second Amendment (as if it wasn't slowly dying already).
