They're At It Again!

HR 1022 (introduced last year) is going through the preliminary process and has more than 60 guns listed for total ban. Please write your reps and let them know how you feel (politely of course).

H.R. 1022: Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2007 (GovTrack.us)

I remember hearing her in an interview with Sean Hannity last year. She didn't even know what a compensator was. Hannity said "well, it's in the bill that you wrote, are you saying you don't know what you wrote?" She couldn't answer.

In this case, ignorance is definitely not bliss.....

You do know this is really old news. :huh:

It was introduced "Feb 13, 2007" with a 'last action' of "Mar 19, 2007".
This bill has been the subject of much discussion and many threads here and all over.

Yes I realize this bill was introduced last year (as stated in my original post) and as stated in the link "This bill is in the first stage of the legislative process where the bill is considered in committee and may undergo significant changes in markup sessions. The bill has been referred to the following committees:

House Judiciary
House Judiciary, Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security".

This is just a reminder to stay in touch with representatives.

They are properly called "liberals". Actually the words are synonyms.
