Guns/Gun control
Transcript: By: Brady,Ricky and Albert Top gun-rights issues • Victory for 2A Rights An amendment adopted by the Senate Armed Services Committee seeks to guarantee the Second Amendment rights of those serving in the U.S. military. Sponsored by Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), it would prevent the Defense Department from imposing any firearms registration restrictions on service members unless a weapon is being stored on military property. The amendment does not prevent the military from prohibiting people from carrying personal weapons on installations, but it would not allow base commanders or others to set rules for servicemen who own firearms off-base. • California Dreaming Democrats in California's Assembly pushed through two anti-Second Amendment bills, which, if passed by the state's senate, will undoubtedly be challenged before the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. One measure would ban Californians from carrying unloaded weapons in public. The other would require the state to keep a permanent record of anyone buying a shotgun or rifle. The good news here is that the California Assembly often sends wacky bills to the state's senate for a more sober view, and there is a good chance that both bills will be shot down.
