basic substance of what NRA is about. protect right to bear arms. our current system of government allows you to have a firearm but jails you if you use it for any reason. profile of a dictator, no weapons, no internet no public assembly.

You folks..see it was never about banning guns.

It's been the ammo all along. First that "shortage" and now this.

This is one smart administration..they know the loopholes and backdoors.
Dirtiest politics I have ever witnessed in my life.

just because lead is banned in bullets does not mean that guns are suddenly worthless. the US military has been working with manufacturers to come up with a "green" bullet that is lead free. and that may not be a bad thing either. even though lead is cheap and easy to cast, there are issues with lead, one being that it fouls the barrels unless used with a copper jacket.

When government becomes broke, I doubt they'll be going after folks to get hunting licenses.
