But not right now. Their hands are full with the economy, two wars and health care reform. And of course they want to be reelected. I would bet money that it will move forward immediately after the 2012 presidential election regardless who wins. Any takers? They’ll take up the semi auto ban for sure. But not right now.

She had no idea what those barrel shrouds were that she wanted to ban. She is a daft and dangerous threat to our liberty. Does Carolyn McCarthy even know what a detachable magazine is?

Rather his complaint is that the shooter shouldn't have passed the background check because he had been investigated. Not found guilty of anything just investigated should result in a denial according to Chuck. Sounds like Kings' bill may move.
