Ahead of the latest debacle of a Presidential debate, Senator Cory Booker symbolically introduced a bill that would mandate federal licensing for anyone who wanted to legally have a gun. Key word there is “legally,” since a large number of gun crimes involve stolen guns. Even far left “think tanks” like American Progress admit this. Booker’s bill would also create a federal gun registry, as license applicants would have to list every gun they have by make, model, and serial number. |

In the spring of 2017, a Republican congressional staff member submitted an application to carry a handgun in Maryland, one of fewer than 10 states requiring citizens to prove they have a good reason to carry firearms.
Maryland, which has some of the country’s strictest gun laws, received more than 600 appeals of permit denials in 2018. Edward Holmes Whalen, then a staffer on the Senate’s Indian Affairs Committee, had presented a rather novel justification in his application — working with the Trump administration, he said, posed great danger. |

Earlier this week there were murmurings of meetings between President Trump and members of Congress interested in some limited gun reforms, with a whisper that there might be an announcement Thursday.
Well, Thursday came and went. Still nada on gun reforms, despite overwhelming popular support (including among Republicans) for universal background checks and so-called “red flag” laws allowing relatives to ask a court to remove firearms from someone they fear poses a danger to themselves or the others. |
