Congress is considering a new law that would make it illegal to give a gun to anyone whose license to own a gun has been revoked. It's called the SAFER Act, short for Stop Access to Firearms Evading Revocation. The bill was inspired by the Waffle House shooting in Antioch.
Congressman Jamie Raskin (D- Md.) authored the bill and says each tragedy involving guns exposes another problem in the nation's network of gun laws.
‘Travis Reinking got ahold of the weapons which had been taken away from him by the state of Illinois because his father returned them to him,” said Raskin. ”Then he went into Waffle House and he massacred four people. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
