There is not one Republican that is a co-sponsor of the bill. I do realize that the Congressional Democrats are not reflective of Democrats nationwide. For example, in Illinois, some of the more ardent defenders of the Second Amendment are Downstate Democrats. Conversely, in Illinois, those that are most anti-gun are also Democrats.<br /><br />I grew up as a Democrat. I was the organizer and president of my college's Young Democrats. I was also the 1st Vice Chair of my precinct. The party I supported in my youth and early adulthood slowly but surely left me behind in their move to the left. It might surprise you and many of my readers but I never voted for President Reagan.John Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03151468462458613615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-84510138309625123882018-03-03T10:13:18.904-05:002018-03-03T10:13:18.904-05:00Why do you say "Democrats" ?

Lumping us all in one anti-gun group is as unfair as saying all Republicans are toothless hillbillies with only a 9th grade education and have sex with farm animals. I AM a Liberal, a registered Democrat, and I own 'several' rifles and handguns plus have had a CPL for 15+ years. I carry a firearm daily. A lot of us liberals have guns and believe they're necessary. couch.guy734https://www.blogger.com/profile/04256620673512018841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-7698603437091759352018-03-02T16:15:56.123-05:002018-03-02T16:15:56.123-05:00If this is true, it could also effectively ban sho...If this is true, it could also effectively ban shot guns due to the threaded barrel wording.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-6876409115412454662018-03-01T23:35:14.374-05:002018-03-01T23:35:14.374-05:00If this is true and actually goes through I'm ...If this is true and actually goes through I'm afraid we will have a civil war on our hands.
