It’ll pass the House and die in the Senate.

We can hope

I have a bad feeling it’s going to pass. I get the distinct impression that our rinos just don’t care anymore.

ETA: Also, I didn’t hear any mention that this is going to affect SBRs or the future registration of SBRs. If that’s the case, then effectively all “assault rifles” simply become NFA items. Which gives them their registry, a type of licensing requirement, and federal tax all in one.

Republicans already capitulated in the Senate a few weeks ago. What makes you think they won’t stab us in the back again?

We need to stop kidding ourselves. This republic has failed.

I’d be surprised if it didn’t pass.

Any active and former LEO’S are exempt from what I’ve gathered. Guess there expecting y’all to enforce this.

It won’t pass. The only reason the recent bill passed was because it was stripped of all stuff like this. We still have to stay on our senators though.

It’s void from the start (void ab initio) under the recent SCOTUS ruling.

Not that Congress really cares about constitutionality any more. The whole thing is a farce. Congress deserves the same respect you would give a foreign telephone scam artist. Maybe less.

They can vote themselves an unemployment check while they’re at it!

With the SCOTUS ruling I could see the RINOs pushing this through, with the idea that it SCOTUS will strike it down. Frankly, its a gamble, but it would be fastest way to SCOTUS and get them to put things right…

Are they TRYING to get their whole gun-control agenda burned to the ground? Because my read is the more they poke the bear the more firebrand Thomas is gonna go trying to teach the lesson… this is the guy who once said “they made my life a living hell for 43 years, so now I’m going to stay on the bench for 43 years to do the same to them in return, and after that MAYBE I’ll think about retiring.”

That was the first place my mind went when I heard about this. I don’t know what’s going on, but there’s a senate clique of rinos that have just flat out decided they don’t care about reelection. Nor the damage they’re doing to the party.

Positively less! We’re dumping Cheney here in Wyoming.

I don’t see it that way.

For instance, speaking in a local pro gun group on FB, they were all into emailing and calling Tillis to stop him from voting yes on the previous bill. Once he did I asked them, so are you going to vote against him in 2026? People said they would support his primary challenger. Okay, I asked, and when he wins the primary will you vote for the democrat to teach Tillis a lesson?

Nope. They will still vote for him.

That’s the problem. It’s really hard to primary out an incumbent unless you’re a giant screw up like Chaney. It’s a lot easier in the House than Senate.

Personally I’d rather vote for the Democrat because then I k ow the knife will be in my chest instead of back.

You think the LDS in Utah will vote against Romney? Hardly.

These scumbags know they are safe which is why they do this. The government no longer fears the people because we have been pussified. 200 years ago we would be heating up the tar. Now, we just complain about it on the internet and hang Blue-Line flags as if those same cops won’t be the ones collecting all the guns. It’s sad what’s we’ve become. They know it, that’s why they rule harder and harder every year. L

More theatre of the absurd. It is 100% unconstitutional and won’t survive in the courts.

US Congress, making the common streetwalker look respectable and honest.

Full-er Retard-eder……

It’ll pass the house, and I don’t think it’ll get past filibuster in the Senate, but there’s definitely a chance it could. Yes it’s unconstitutional, and if it were to pass it should get struck down by the courts.
