An example of what this bill would do...
A few years back there was a US citizen and businessman who was also a gun dealer. He took a business trip to Mexico. While there, he was stopped by Mexican police (I guess they don’t follow that liberal “no-profiling” thing, huh?). They found a couple of boxes of ammunition and charged him with a felony. Well, his rights were arbitrarily revoked in the US (by the BATF mind you) where possession of ammunition is legal, and in some areas common, for what is a stupid law in a backward third world country. Even the SCOTUS upheld this
Now the Dim’s want to make this law?
Google “Thomas Bean” for details on the case and DUMP this horrible piece of legislation!
