Senate Democrats introduce New Gun-Control Bill: Federal License, Registration, Red Flag & Gun Confiscation

Six days ago on September 10, 2019, Demonrat senators Cory Booker (New Jersey) and Richard Blumenthal (Connecticut) introduced a new gun-control bill, S. 2449: Federal Firearm Licensing Act, which will:

(1) Require a federal license to acquire or receive firearms, “and for other purposes”: “In general…it shall be unlawful for any individual to purchase or receive a firearm unless the individual has a valid Federal firearm license.”

(2) A Federal firearm license is required for each firearm: “each license issued under this section shall be valid for the purchase of a single firearm”.

(3) Each license is valid for only 5 years.

(4) The federal license in turn means the federal and local governments will keep a registration of all gun owners in the U.S.: “a license issued under the system is available at a designated local office, which shall be located in both urban and rural areas.”

(5) To acquire the Federal firearm license will require:

  • Training in firearms safety, including (a) “a written test, to demonstrate knowledge of applicable firearms laws”; and (b) “hands-on testing, including firing testing, to demonstrate safe use and sufficient accuracy of a firearm”.
  • Proof of identity of the applicant.
  • Fingerprints of the applicant.
  • A thorough background check of the applicant.

(6) Red Flag: If it is determined that an individual “poses a significant danger of bodily injury to self or others by possessing, purchasing, or receiving a firearm,” s/he will be denied a gun license or if s/he already owns a gun(s), the license for which will be revoked and the firearm confiscated: “The Attorney General shall establish procedures to ensure that any firearm is removed from any individual when the individual’s license is revoked”.

  1. As fearful and daunting as all this sounds, the CONgress will never pass a bill of this nature. Americans may succumb to many infringements on thier rights, but they will not stand for their weapons to be confiscated or to having to take tests etc. They may try, but this may well be the one thing that finally gets the average Jane and Joe (and maybe even a few Joe/Janes) off their butts and off to DC.

    1. I suspect those who push for gun controls and registrations are not really that concerned about possible failure to push such laws through. Instead, these traitors really figure they can bulldoze the public and just take the guns. I can’t see them pushing laws through in good faith, that doesn’t exist in the Democratic party.

  2. I wanted to see what Gunowners.org (Gunowners of America GOA) had to say about
    this , S. 2449: Federal Firearm Licensing Act, and found not one article or video by them.

    Did come upon this video by now GOA president, Erich Pratt, Larry’s son. Good ole nepotism is alive and well in gun lobby as well as televangelism.

    Notice how our lobbyists and congress critters who purport to be strong supporters of the Second Amendment all a priori accept as true the official narratives of all the “shooting” false events. I cannot help but think that that is going to backfire on them if they are truly wanting to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution. And that strategy backfiring on them is exactly the outcome wanted by those who falsely pretend to be supporting the Second Amendment.

    Another trap scenario for us I see in all of this is our constanly pointing to the “Democrats.” Sure, on the surface, the Dems are looking bad on this, but there are very many Republicans who also have the unAmeican take on this issue.
    Remember, there are some people in the top secret societies at the top who laugh at our Democrat versus Republican dialectic.

    There would not even be a trace of the USA left in 2019 if we had not always had a rightly enforced strong Second Amendment.

    THEIR goal is to end the USA and to install a One World Death and Slavery System for ALL.

    Volume I Gulag Archipelago

    “During an arrest, you think since you aren’t guilty, how can they arrest you? Why should you run away? And how can you resist right then? After all, you’ll only make your situation worse; you’ll make it more difficult for them to sort out the mistake. And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! We didn’t love freedom enough. Every man always has handy a dozen glib little reasons why he is right not to sacrifice himself.”

  3. From Jim Stone (pic available on his site http://82.221.129.208/.wb6.html )

    I AM CALLING IT: THERE WERE NO DRONES AND NO MISSILES USED AGAINST SAUDI REFINERY
    Obviously there’s no way to be 100 percent certain with this, but a referee would certainly call it for the following reasons: There was no damage to the oil facility. At least no damage to speak of. They can patch it up and get it going STAT because it was extremely minimal damage that did not wipe out actual refining capabilities, all it did was light big fires (that are already completely out) and make a bunch of smoke. If this was for real, it would not be put out already.

    Another very suspicious aspect of this was how precise the “hits” were. It looks as if someone went up on the tanks with a man lift that could access the same spot on each tank easily, and put the absolute minimal explosive there manually that would be needed to blow the tank, without actually destroying the tank. There’s not a chance in hell it was cruise missiles because if it was, there would be nothing left of the tanks. Instead, they are all neatly poked in exactly the same spot on each tank. The tanks obviously only need to be patched, they don’t need to be replaced.

    Here’s a HUGE reason to call the attacks totally FAKE, and I know this cinches it –

    First, an explanation to prove the scenario here – In industry, when repairs have to be made to any tank filled with anything that can explode when mixed with air – if it needs to be welded, welding can be done without worry provided the welding is done below the level of the liquid in the tank, down below where the air can reach it. This is even true on gasoline tanks. As long as you don’t puncture the tank or weld where the air is, there’s no chance at all of there being a problem from being welded, welding can be done below the level of whatever liquid is in the tank. THIS IS EXACTLY HOW EVERY SINGLE “DRONE AND CRUISE MISSILE” HIT THESE TANKS.

    Take a look at this picture. All the tanks were hit the same way in exactly the same spot, with precison that is not attainable by those accused, as well as precise limited damage not attainable by those accused.

    This attack was prepared for, because NONE of the tanks exploded, all were full to above the level of impact. What are the chances of that happening at random? I’d say zilch, and am probably right. AND HOW THE HELL ARE THE FIRES OUT SO SOON AFTER THE “ATTACK” THAT A PHOTO LIKE THIS COULD BE TAKEN RIGHT AWAY? These fires were out in ONE DAY. That needs some explaining, – explaining that can’t be done outside of this attack being hoaxed for max impression and minimal damage.

    BOTTOM LINE: If it is all out so quickly and the damage is that uniform and the damage is that minimal, first of all Iranian cruise missiles did not do this because the damage is not enough (all of them carry 130 KG (286 pound) warheads and up) which would obliterate a large section of those tanks and not just leave a little hole (Oh, I know what did this, the Iranian navy put limpet mines on those tanks, YEP, that would end up looking like the photo) and magically and mysteriously got all of them right where they would not ignite any vapors and blow the whole thing. Forget about how they sailed into that refinery to do it, IRAN DID IT, IRAN DID IT, IRAN DID IT!!!!
    The Yemenis did not do this either, they were simply not capable of that kind of precision. Even the U.S. would likely not have an attack pattern be so uniform and perfect, this looks like a hand placement job and someone was brainless about making it look credible. FINAL ANSWER.

  4. This proposed Law is exactly what was done to the German people, Russian and Cambodian. We all know what happened next….mass murder by their respective governments.

    This sole purpose of the fake mass shootings in the US is to so terrify people that they demand this kind of draconian Law.

    Slippery slope…..here we come.

    1. If you don’t see what’s coming next, blindness you choose. The special designed train cars, explained away by the normal-cy biased people, just like the thousands of plastic three person coffins and the millions of rounds of ammo purchased for non-military agencies of the Gov’t. You will get every explanation except for the obvious one. Something bigger than 911 is coming. The warehouse facilities near train tracks that suddenly got heat and renovations with no apparent purpose. The UN armored division discovered near Hagerstown, MD. The brain washed people that tell you to go to SNOPES.com to assuage your fears… The higher up in the establishment one becomes, the less likely you become to make waves in troubled waters. The Trump presidency got us one percenters’ hopes up. He turns out to be Israel’s bitch, not Russia’s. Forget about 911 truth or ends to overseas occupations. Or fixing a 21 trillion dollar debt, ending the geo-engineering nightmare. Nothing substantial has changed for the better, things are getting worse… just like Obama-nation Bush-the-Dumber. The latest saber rattling over Iran, but they aren’t stupid enough to provoke us. If I had to guess it’s the Zionists behind the attack on Saudi Arabia, not Iran… they know there’s zero to gain in provoking us.

      1. AMEN Dave!! You nailed. Trump is Israel’s bitch. And yes, the attack on the gas works in Saudi Arabia probably was yet another false flag by the Mossad. That is their specialty. They want their puppet USA to go to war with Iran for them. We should destroy Israel instead and the world would be a much better place.

      2. Hey Dennis. Thanks. I think people are opinion engineered. Guns are tools like hammers, crow bars and chisels. Rand Paul has one of the best approaches to dealing with the left’s hell bent mission to take away guns. He never bothers doubting that mass shootings happen. Instead he zeros in on lack of law enforcement and prosecutions on already existing laws. Then he points out how all criminal law enforcement lies with the individual states first and foremost. And more laws from the federal level are irrelevant. Even CNN has no way to smear Sen. Paul.

  5. One comment, how asleep is this country? The founding dads wrote the Bill Of Rights in plain English so it’s in the Wheel House of a Fourth Grader to comprehend. Cory Booker’s voters have to see what a traitor he is to his oath. Remember the old westerns when men got released from prison? They were given their guns back sans their horses which were fed for them while incarcerated. That happened in High Plains Drifter, but I can see that happening in real life. Taking away the second amendment under any circumstances is a slippery slope into tyranny. How about the domestic violence offenders that have their gun rights taken away? Many of those cases are pretty minor and you lose your 2nd amendment for life? How is that in line with the intension of the Bill Of Rights? The Founding Dads were brilliant men who had real foresight into the future of gun evolution. They knew guns would do nothing but get better over time. In 1860 when the Henry rifle was invented, it could hold 17 rounds of .44 cal rim fire. Did Congress move to ban the first “assault” weapons ? Of course not. Now-a-days, after every mass shooting – politicians call for guns to be taken away from the people who had nothing to do with it. That tells me the shootings are Gov’t sponsored, staged or actually committed by Gov’t entities. Look how long it takes them to seize the moment and call for gun bans. The nano-second is inadequate to measure it.

  6. This kind of reminds me of Prohibition. Once the prevention by law of the manufacture and sale of alcohol happened, [between 1920 and 1933], it sparked a huge underground bootleg mob to flout the Law.

    Can anyone see a huge market for the illegal manufacture and sale of guns happening?

    Street Drugs are illegal, yet TONS of them are imported into the US every year.

    Does anyone imagine that criminals or anyone will not be able to obtain guns?

  7. If this ever gets anyplace near passage, we had all better get ready for a march on DC like never before. IF we are not ready to make that move, America is history. Bend over, kiss your arse good-bye and us the CONstitution as toilet paper, as that weill be all it’s worth. Is it possible Bush was right?

    12-9-5

    Last month, Republican Congressional leaders filed into the Oval Office to meet with President George W. Bush and talk about renewing the controversial USA Patriot Act.

    “Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”

    “Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

    I’ve talked to three people present for the meeting that day and they all confirm that the President of the United States called the Constitution “a goddamned piece of paper.”
