✔ @SenBlumenthal




TUNE IN: Today @ChrisMurphyCT, @DWStweets, @fred_guttenberg, & I introduce Jaime's Law. This critical, commonsense gun control legislation will #CloseTheAmmoLoophole & require ammo background checks. https://www.pscp.tv/SenBlumenthal/1OwxWOzWvNexQ …
'What a crap idea'! Dems 'just sold a whole bunch of ammo' by introducing this gun control bill

There's a " AMMO LOOPHOLE " now ??!! WTF ??!!

What we really have is a CRIMINAL LOOPHOLE !! CLOSE THAT, A$$HOLE !

 

[Deplorable Me]

Maybe we should be able to use our voter IDs for ammo purchases.

 

[Steal2B]

Even the NYT slams Dick for being a lying low life. He must be looking at announcing his candidacy to run for the Dem Presidential nomination, since even he knows this bill won't get the 60 votes for cloture. Maybe he should introduce a bill so that he dosen't have to deploy or even go to nam so he can keep claiming to be Vietnam Combat vet on the campaign trail.

 

[Burzum]

Ammo-loophole, maybe Dick-head Blumenthal was having flashbacks from that time in Vietnam he never served, but claimed he did.

Shame on ANY combat veteran who voted for that lying charlatan, Blumenthal.

It took me a minute, but I have to come back here to ask the obvious question.

If all these criminals are banned from acquiring a gun of any type, why would they bother buying ammunition ? They don't have a gun to use it in !

Could CONVICTED CRIMINALS be acquiring ILLEGAL GUNS somehow ? I wonder. If they manage to buy an illegal gun, would it not stand to reason that they might just as well be able to buy illegal ammunition for it ?

The politician's obvious answer to everything is to ban it. Seems logical. How did that work during prohibition ? How's the "war on drugs" going these days ?

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

Still focusing on the wrong problem. IF someone wants to get their hands on a firearm, they will. IF someone wants to buy ammo to use in that firearm, they will. In typical fashion, this proposed law is just another chip away at the block of our gun ownership and our rights.

its kinda really sad that a Octopus is actually smarter then anyone in that video ..

 

[Bigfoot]

Everything is nothing but a big ole loophole.

loooooophole...

Life is a loophole... I think that I am experiencing a loophole right now.

loop de loop de loooooooophole.

 

[Saltwater60]

He looks like a house elf from Harry Potter.

 

[Airborneguy]

He should propose a bill to close the Constitution Loophole so we can align forces behind each respective ideology, meet them in honorable battle and then crush them, drive them before us, and hear the lamentations of their women.

What do you pay from those guys? I’ve been using xtreme.

 

[masterswimmer]

I couldn't make it through that video.
Once the Vietnam 'combat vet' stated no one should be able to build an arsenal of ammunition my WTF radar went bonkers.

Best deal I've found lately. I picked some on black friday for $56 1000 delivered. I have yet to load any up. If my guns like them I will be putting a massive order in this black friday.

Gallant Bullets - High Quality Match Grade polymer coated cast bullets

I love how these "hired hands" can't even pronounce the person's last name properly. If it's SO important to you, at least know how to say the kid's name.

But really, what's the point in an ammo background check when the criminals can't own firearms anyway? What are they going to do, THROW the bullets at people? No, they're admitting that criminals still own guns, despite laws against it. Hello dumbasses.

 

[camper4lyfe]

And holy fuck, could they have found bigger bullets? At $5 a pop, I highly doubt criminals are running around with an "aresenal" of 50BMG rounds.

About $235 shipped for 3,500.

Dems Debut National Ammo Control Bill in Congress :: Guns.com
Dems Debut National Ammo Control Bill in Congress
Currently four states — Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, and New Jersey — require firearms licenses for ammo sales but not federal background checks on purchases. Initiatives enacted in California in 2016 and New York in 2013 are closer to the proposed new plan, requiring checks at purchase, but each has a troubled track record.

New York’s mandate, part of the state’s SAFE Act, is in a holding pattern as officials try to work out the mechanics of the program. On the West Coast, California’s Prop. 63 ammo regulations have caused headaches for both dealers and buyers, added fees and wait times to gun owners seeking to buy ammunition, and forced online retailers and small ammo makers to halt direct sales with home delivery. Many would-be California ammo buyers, after July 1, 2019, will have to pay a fee and pass an “eligibility check” performed by the state Department of Justice.

Wasserman Schultz’s California-style bullet control bill has been referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. Blumenthal is set to introduce a similar measure in the Senate.

What "loophole" are they referring to? What law that exists has a "loophole" in it?

 

[Airborneguy]

What "loophole" are they referring to? What law that exists has a "loophole" in it?

The loophole is the fact that guns and ammo exist at all. Every currently legal action involving firearms is a "loophole" to lefties.

 

[repete]

Ever notice that politicians call something a "loop hole" when they don't like it yet when they do like something they are just "abiding by the law"?

 

[Mk44]

Jamie law is stupid. Just a bunch of anti-gun libs trying to come up with some bullshit law to hurt gun owners. Bottom line is they hate guns. They're trying to come up with any thing to try to stop gun owners from using/owning them.

A criminal can buy a knife, axe, hammer to hurt someone. Are we going to have a background check for everything.

FU Blumenthal

 

[gun_slinger_boy]

50 cal ammo tends to not even end up in the "right" hands.

 

[livingston]

It is an end run around banning guns .. The 2nd says we are allowed the hardware... says nothing about the ammo. Liberals will allow you 20 rounds every 90 days and in another bill one must show proficiency in order to keep a permit... ... Without the permit .. No guns for you... You folks don't think the have had this all planned out ??? of course. Will this become law .. Not today BUT at some point in the future. The mantra ... Who needs more than 7 bullets to kill a deer... Will morph into... Who needs more than 7 bullets in your house hold.

The unconstitutional laws coming from these shitstains has turned into a "Hold my beer" contest.

[GoodGuywitha9mm]

It's just gonna start a frenzy of hoarding ammo... again. or as I wish to refer to it: keeping minimum stock levels of everything I'll need to make it through the apocalypse. I can just take a picture of it and send it to them, right? I'll initial the boxes, and cans, and buckets...
