the point is-when some claim the Democratic Party is not anti gun, this shows otherwise. It will get lots of support from Dems. Maybe even a few RINOS.

I hope it gets lots of press before the election-I hope Joe Biden-assuming he is your nominee-makes it a major part of his campaign.
 
i'm not anti-gun for responsible adults, but getting the orange moron voted out is my top issue. we can worry about hobbies later.
 
YOU might want to go and look up who is co-sponsoring this bill
There are 15 and only 6 are Dems 9 are republicans
All Info - H.R.5717 - 115th Congress (2017-2018): Jake Laird Act of 2018 | Congress.gov | Library of Congress

To me, it's an enigma. Confusing.

Democrats elect democrats. And just about 99% of the democrats I know are gun totin' pro-2A kinda people. Who are electing these people?

IF you look at it the one you listed it is from 2018. If you look at the one from the OP it is from 2020. So he is correct that it is a failed prior act. They took a failed bill and are trying to pass it again.

I know-but it is an obvious bit of proof which party is the gun banning party
Click to expand...

well we can see that bill 5717 has 9 Republican cosponsors and 6 Dem
so does that mean the Republicans are the gun banning party?
just asking
Have a nice afternoon

Biden said openly that he is "coming for the gun manufacturers"

Luckily for the USA, the doddering old fool probably won't be able to recall any manufacturers name by November.

my guess is that the hobby won't be disrupted no matter who wins. there's too much money in it.
