So people.
Carters FiSA Act.
Clintons Omnibus Counter Terrorism Act.
Bush's Patriot Act.
Obamas NDAA, and CISA.
All the odds are on it will be signed in to law barring some miracle.
Oh yeah people we are 'free'.
Free to be spied on, and continually lose more rights in the name of 'security'.
We all know what's next as the op already made the connection to.
Say good bye to the second forever.
The last great step in totalitarian regimes.
Quite a leap from this bill to the end of the 2nd Amendment, wouldn't you say?

They do this every x-mas. Perfect time to pass # like this.
Your post = patently ridiculous.
There is a reason for applying scrutiny to those who would like to have assault weapons. There is a reason for looking at 'Gun Shows' as possible 'ways to get a gun.'
Are you aware that ISIS recruitment videos and messages are telling people: "The easiest and best way to to get an assualt weapon is at gun shows." ????? You aware of that?
Gun show loophole, gun law loophole, Brady law loophole (or Brady bill loophole), private sale loophole, or private sale exemption is a political term in the United States referring to sales of firearms by private sellers, including those done at gun shows, dubbed the "secondary market"
ARE YOU NOT AWARE that the San Bernardino killers had built up an arsenal of weapons, and their neighbors saw that those packages were being delivered - - and then they went all jihad?
In 1999, California enacted the nation’s broadest legislation to increase oversight at gun shows (AB 295). In California, all firearms transfers at gun shows must be processed through a licensed firearms dealer
I don't read "politico." I use my brain.
Please stop using that made up term by politico's 'assault weapon' just like that other made up term 'mass shooting'.
Assault has no real world definition than how a weapon looks. It has no basis WHAT SO EVER on function.
And name ONE mass shooting that used the 'gun show' loophole.
You can't because NONE of them used it.

Sorry but this isn't the 1800s anymore.
Give up your security and you will be one of the first getting beheaded on Al-Jazeera, followed by the other 300 million Americans.

Yep, it does. Weapons designed for military use that can mow down people by the dozens...... = ASSAULT.
How the hell do you know?????? You don't.
The vast majority of guns used in 15 recent mass shootings, including at least two of the guns used in the San Bernardino attack, were bought legally and with a federal background check

Yet, you are averse to background checks or any sort of surveillance or regulation on who can get weapons........ right?
Not hold the entire population of this country 'accountable' for the crime didn't commit, or WILL EVER.
