922r Repeal!

[Moose242]

Well, Ron Paul just proposed this bill that would strike the sporting purposes requirement for importing firearms, as well as 922r.

If passed, this would mean we could import "assault weapons" directly from Europe (and other countries) like we could before 1989.

Won't pass, but it still makes me happy to know that there is someone at least trying.

I'm buying Ron Paul a beer tonight.

Another reason to like Ron Paul. Too bad it won't pass, but at least someone up there is trying to restore the Constitution.

I guess we can dream. Is there anything the NRA is doing to back this? Or anything that can be done even? Not sure with processes like this

I like this! but I agree it probably will not get out of committee or get through the
Senate.
