On May 12, 2015, Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.) introduced H.R. 2283 or the Stop Online Ammunition Sales Act of 2015.
According to a report from The Hill (full text of the legislation has not been received by the Government Publishing Office at press time) the bill would require that ammunition sellers be federally licensed, that online ammunition purchasers show a photo identification in-person at an “authorized dealer” in order to take receipt of their orders, and that any purchases of more than 1000 rounds made within five consecutive days be reported to the Attorney General. |

Yet another in a long, long list of proposed "firearms trafficking regulations" that target one group exclusively. LEGAL firearms owners and ammunition purchasers ! We all know criminal elements won't pay any attention to these proposed new regs.
Its become increasingly obvious our 'elected representatives', at every level of government, are far more protective of the welfare of criminal elements than their electorate. Why ? The 'missing piece' in this enigma exists in 'MMO, a dictum all LEOs learn early in their careers. We know the "means and opportunity". That leaves only"motive"; and that's where everyone - not only firearms enthusiasts- ought to be focusing their attention. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
