For all the people who kept saying that the "gun nuts" are crazy or delusional about what is attempting to be done regarding the second amendment....what do you say now? I saw this message over and over again since the latest debate regarding guns began. It's not just about guns...isn't that fairly clear now?

It is a slippery slope and despite the fact that this bill will more than likely fail just the very attempt by politicians to push this blatantly unconstitutional bill through is enough evidence for me to understand what the real agenda is. Keep ramming the door until it breaks down. Keep testing the waters.

The thought and message that it's OK to lose basic American rights with the justification of "in order to protect us" is dangerous and is a direct violation of rights....period. That is NOT the government's role at any level.

Maybe you didn't get the memo. It's for the children. If we could save just one life. . . Please. . think of the children.

it's obvious we are just interpreting the bill incorrectly. The bill is not what the libs meant.

It's really not too surprising that none of the normal naysayers about gun ownership or the second amendment haven't chimed in. The silence is deafening. Again, it's about much more than firearms.

An update, HB 3200 generated so many emails and calls that it is dead in the water.

However there is still several pieces of legislation moving.

SB 796 would restrict you to attempting to qualify only 3 times a year for a CHL, and would alter the requirements for qualifying.

SB 347 'no guns in schools bill'.

SB 699 started out as 'no concealed carry in the capital', but has been amended many times.

SB 700 universal background check bill, although it seems to be mostly targeting private party transfers.

Multnomah county passed a butt load of shitty ordinances, here is the summary.

Open loaded carry will now be illegal in Multnomah County for non-licensees.

Only security guards who work at banks will be allowed to be armed. Armed guards elsewhere would be prohibited (Apparently much of the “gun violence” is being committed by security guards.)

It will now be unlawful for a person without a CHL to have a loaded magazine or speed loader in any public place, including your car, anywhere in the county.

It will now be unlawful to refuse to allow the police to inspect a magazine you have...even if you don’t have a gun!

It will now be a crime to allow a minor to have access to one of your firearms, unless of course, you’ve given him permission to have it. (We know, it makes no sense.)

This won’t apply if the minor was on your property illegally. This won’t apply if your gun had a trigger lock. The County has not explained how they will prove your firearm did NOT have a trigger lock. We are confident that all guns that are obtained by minors from this point on, will be reported to have had trigger locks. (It would appear that none of the County Commissioners are Mensa candidates.)

If your firearm is stolen and you don’t report the theft within 48 hours of "knowing or having reason to know” that it was stolen, you face a $2,500.00 fine. We predict there will be lots of people who didn’t “know” their guns were stolen.

If your gun is stolen and you can’t provide a serial number, you will be charged a $200.00 “administrative fee.” They don’t say what that fee is supposed to cover.

All in all, pointless rules that are only intended to harass and demonize gun owners. The Sheriff of Multnomah County thinks these rules are a great idea. The County has no rules punishing people who allow minors access to their car keys.

Reports are that the overwhelming majority of people who testified were in opposition.

Just more proof of authoritarian Democrats/progressives wiping their asses with the Constitution. No one on the right is surprised.
