NRA has long maintained that federal gun laws aimed at the criminal misuse of firearms are effective in reducing crime--if they are enforced. President Bush's administration has clearly heard that message and implemented it.
Never mind that patriotic Americans will become felons if caught defying clearly unconstitutional gun prohibitions--the LaPierre Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence (formerly National Rifle Control, Inc.) wants them punished, and George Bush is just the man to do it.
They still haven't answered a question I've been asking for years--just where in this document are the feds delegated authority to be involved in these matters at all?
Don't hold your breath.
Oh, and as for those federal gun laws that "are effective in reducing crime"? Why not ask the residents of Richmond and Philadelphia?
More Kool-Aid, anyone?
