On the eighth anniversary of the shooting of former Democratic Rep. Gabby Giffords, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and other Democrats Tuesday announced a bill to expand background checks for sales and transfers of firearms. The legislation marks one of Pelosi’s first acts since retaking the role of House Speaker after Democrats took back control of the lower chamber of Congress in the midterm elections. Many Democrats promised swift action on gun control during last year’s campaign season.

Hopefully the Senate will hold out on these threats against the second amendment.

If passed the next step will be gun registration because background checks for private sales won't work unless the guns are registered.

If you take an oath in a courtroom and lie...you know what happens. "Lying" or knowingly "Breaking" that "Oath of Office" should be considered more severe than being in a courtroom and lying. Persons of little character, or honor disobey their oath.

Congress has the authority to mandate background checks at retail pursuant to its commerce clause powers.

Private sales are not commerce, and there is no delegated power to regulate them.

Why is nobody shouting this out loud, day after day?
 
 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them. — Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States; With a Preliminary Review of the Constitutional History of the Colonies and States before the Adoption of the Constitution [Boston, 1833].
