I have written my Representative about this Stupid Bill. I'll post back when He Answers, He got an "A" rating from the NRA. He has always written back to me. I actually met the Man at the local Gun Show recently. He's VERY "Pro-Gun". I looked the Bill up, there's been no action on it since July. It was introduced on June 12th. I doubt it goes anywhere.

If the government takes guns from Law Abiding Citizens, only Criminals will have Guns. This = CHAOS
Law Abiding Citizens with guns will be here to help our Country when War breaks out or Terrorists attack.

ahhh i was under the impression this really was a newly proposed bill...
If I am correct, a few of the idiots sponsoring this are Republicans.
Republican Mark Kirk from Illinois is a sponser and wrote the bill. He gets a D from the NRA. He supports lawsuits against firearm manufacturors. Mayor Daley is/was a big proponent of these lawsuits. He has wasted MILLIONS of tax dollars on frivolous lawsuits.
I hate my state's politicians.
