Don't be surprised if this bill grows some legs. I don't subscribe to the theory that the Democrat party still believes gun control is the third rail of politics. They are in power, and IMO they will exercise that power, to our detriment.
If it goes any farther, we CAN use it as a tool. If it goes farther, shout it from the rooftops, print up pamplets that are easy to read and leave them at gun shops, ranges, hunting weigh-in stations, community centers and houses of worship (that are not soccer-parent-anti sorts), and LET PEOPLE KNOW. With the reminder that if Obama or Hillary get in, they'll have carte blanche to do just that.
Be reasonable in your composition. Come off as "these rifles saved peoples' lives after Katrina", not all "Turner diaries".
