And if someone is a terrorist, will a ban on firearms keep them from obtaining them?

A: It will help.

3. What are the possible unintended consequences of this proposal?

A: None, as second amendment rights are not being taken away, all guns are not being banned, the guns are not being confiscated, this would only extend a previous law.

Are you violating copyright laws?

Copying and pasting from the Brady Campaign or wherever you got that garbage doesn't make it so. The FBI said the ban did nothing against crime. The SCOTUS says the Second Amendment protects all firearms in common use.

Its not moving right now because Bush is not likely to sign it. As soon as Obama takes office, the gears will start turning for this bill.
