A Florida lawmaker is hoping the state legislature will take up a refiled gun control bill during this week’s special session.
...
Farmer’s bill aims to make sure all gun sales are conducted by a licensed firearms dealer. It also requires background checks for firearms purchased at gun shows.
“And, so, I understand that it’s outside the call, and it’s unlikely that the call would ever be expanded to include these gun bills, or the one that’s been filed, or just kind of trying to make a statement and symbolically let the NRA [National Rifle Association] and others know that we’re not going away and we’re going to continue to push for sensible gun safety legislation that does not infringe on anyone’s right to bear arms,” he added. |

Idiot.
Criminals do not buy their guns at gun shows. They steal them, use a straw purchaser, or buy them from another criminal.
eseis type of restrictions only affects law abiding citizens. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
