Oregon bill would require permits to buy guns, limit ammunition
A bill set to appear in the Legislature this year would require Oregonians to obtain a permit before buying a gun, limit the amount of ammunition a person could buy, outlaw magazines with a capacity of more than five rounds and create gun locking and storage requirements.
Holy shit.
A five round mag limit is insane. Also, everything else there is terrible too.
The bill came from Students for Change, a group of Lake Oswego teens formed last year after the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. They lobbied lawmakers and Gov. Kate Brown last year and pledged to come back this year with a legislative proposal.
Rep. Andrea Salinas, D-Lake Oswego, and Sen. Rob Wagner, D- Tualatin, submitted Senate Bill 501 on their behalf.
So a bunch of ignorant kids, whipped into self righteous frenzy wrote a bill that would kill sport shooting in the state.
Wagner said that it’s “probably a long shot that something like this passes in whole cloth,” but this is the bill the students wanted to put in front of the Legislature.
I would hope so, but I don’t know what the political balance of Oregon is, i.e., what percent of the legislature is of the pro-Antifa Portland ilk.
“What we told them is that this is your movement, and we want to support you as representatives,” Wagner said.
And this is how the people of Oregon get their rights destroyed, because a bunch of adults let emotional kids write the laws and show them unwavering support because they are emotional kids.
Wagner said the students did all the research for the bill and he hasn’t looked much into its constitutionality.
I’m shocked.
