On May 12, 2015, Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.) introduced H.R. 2283 or the Stop Online Ammunition Sales Act of 2015.
According to a report from The Hill (full text of the legislation has not been received by the Government Publishing Office at press time) the bill would require that ammunition sellers be federally licensed, that online ammunition purchasers show a photo identification in-person at an “authorized dealer” in order to take receipt of their orders, and that any purchases of more than 1000 rounds made within five consecutive days be reported to the Attorney General. |

Yet another in a long, long list of proposed "firearms trafficking regulations" that target one group exclusively. LEGAL firearms owners and ammunition purchasers ! We all know criminal elements won't pay any attention to these proposed new regs.
Its become increasingly obvious our 'elected representatives', at every level of government, are far more protective of the welfare of criminal elements than their electorate. Why ? The 'missing piece' in this enigma exists in 'MMO, a dictum all LEOs learn early in their careers. We know the "means and opportunity". That leaves only"motive"; and that's where everyone - not only firearms enthusiasts- ought to be focusing their attention. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
