The Bible says in I-Peter 5:8 “be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him and stand steadfast in your faith.” The scriptures admonition to resist,be vigilant, and stand steadfast could just as well be excellent advice for the hunters, shooters, gun collectors, or any Second Amendment believers.
On Jan. 6th. of 2009 Representative Bobby Rush (Dem. IL.) introduced the “Blair Holt’s Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009.” This bill has been introduced into the House as new bill HR 45. It has been kept a secret and is flying under the radar of most Americans. If you feel as though you have a staunch ally in President Barack Obama, then I have a bridge to sell ya! The anti gun lobby is drooling over the possibility of getting HR 45 passed asap. This is a foot in the door approach to complete confiscation of guns and disarming society to the point that we have no defense.
I don’t have the space to get into all the details, but I will highlight some of the major points. Basically this bill would make it illegal to own a firearm – any rifle with a clip, or any pistol unless you submit to the following. 1. Register your guns. 2. Get fingerprinted. 3. supply a current drivers license 4. submit to a physical or mental evaluation at any time of their choosing. 5. Supply your social security number. 6. Report the private or public sale of any firearm with a cost of $25.00 reporting fee. Failure to do this and you automatically loose your right to own a firearm, and you are subject to a year in jail. 7. There is also a child provision law on page 16 in section 305 stating a child access provision. Your guns must be locked and inaccessible to any child under 18. Along with this provision the government maintains the right to come and inspect your home to make sure you are complying with this rule. If you are found in violation you can be fined and jailed for up to 5 years.
Please go on the Internet to verify this Orwellian plan against your Second Amendment rights. Look up HR-45 and you should find a wealth of information. This is no joke, and if we take it as such, gun ownership will go the same way as school prayer. Incidentally before school prayer was removed all the teachers had to worry about was kids chewing gum, talking in the halls, passing notes behind their backs, and a few really “bad” kids skipping class. Now we have weapon detectors, shootings, stabbings, lock-downs, riots, drugs, sexual promiscuity (even the teachers can’t control themselves) and higher illiteracy. Boy you can give me back the good old days when morality was important.
Please pass this blog and it’s message on to any of your friend. Write a letter, make a phone call. These knuckleheads in Washington only listen if enough people get on their case about an issue.
Yours in Solidarity

Is not the NRA on top of this? That is terrible. It didn’t take long for the anti-gun people to shift into gear did it.
