In many places across this country, Republicans are dismantling gun control legislation so that more criminals and terrorists, as well as the mentally ill, can have unlimited and unrestrained access to as many weapons they can buy, so that they can kill as many people as they want.
But in Delaware, Governor Markell, Representative Dennis E. Williams and Representative Valerie Longhurst proposed four new gun control laws in Delaware. One bill closes finally the gun show loophole that allows people to buy guns at gun shows without undergoing a criminal background check. Another bill prohibits carrying guns while intoxicated. Another requires the reporting of information on mentally ill state residents to be sent to the federal instant criminal background check database. And the final bill allowes law enforcments to dispose of seized weapons.
All four bills are common sense legislation that does not infringe on the Second Amendment rights of any law abiding citizen, rather it protects the public at large. But please, conservatives, please defend the rights of drunk mentally ill criminals who want to shoot their guns. I am sure you will sound very sane and reasonable.
