Key Points of the Rule Change:
--Since 1992, Congress has prohibited ATF from using funds to process gun rights restoration applications, making the statute obsolete.
--ATF will no longer handle individual firearm disability relief applications under 18 U.S.C. 925(c). DOJ will instead carry out the statute and process petitions for gun rights restoration.
--The DOJ rule goes into effect immediately upon publication and will simultaneously accept public comments on the rule before issuing a final version. |

| Feds have no authority to permanently take or "disable" ANY personal rights of ANY freed person, so the "relief" is also based on a lie. This is a good start, FINALLY though. The 2nd amendment is the most attacked, by far. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
