Default House passes measure expanding gun rights

Quick! Buy ammo and hide your weapons before the evil Dems come and take them away!

GR - no you don't. Federal park lands were exempted, then put into play by a Bush executive order if I recall correctly. That was then terminated by Obama, and now there is a movement on to legislate it (as should have been done the first time).

I'm using the "Ted Nugent" interpretation of the constitution.

Hopefully this will kill the crap about Democrats not being Pro-gun. There are many Democrats who are pro-gun, just like there are many Republicans who are anti-gun.

It all depends on the individual not the political party.
