Before they had determined the marathon bombers used fireworks powder to detonate the pressure cooker bomber, Senator Lautenburg had already proposed that any powder purchases be subject to a background check.

If you don't know the history behind Lautenberg, he had been a staunch anti-gun advocate.

I'm wondering when he's going to advocate for background checks for all common household chemicals that can be used to make an explosive device.
Not suprising, Harry Reid has jumped on the band wagon also, that could also include background checks for ammo ...

These guys are clowns. If they can't get a bill through to restrict weapons and magazines, what make them think this will even make it to the floor for a vote???

Re: Lautenburg - Background Checks to Purchase Powder
Don't be so sure. You know how you break big rocks, don't you? You chip little pieces off until all you have is gravel. The anti-gunners are VERY stubborn. You never want to assume they have given up. They will sneak something through by tacking it on another bill that "we have to pass before we can know what is in it."

Re: Lautenburg - Background Checks to Purchase Powder
It would seem that the Dems want to have a background check for everything, here is one that ought to make you laugh.

The representative did shelve the bill, after he was flooded by angry responses from the public.

Re: Lautenburg - Background Checks to Purchase Powder
I wonder what my best friend, a NC resident and pitbull owner, thought about that idea of a background check for his dog... (or more accurately, his wifes dog, lol)

Frank Lousenberg is almost a bigger jerk than that azzhat Corzine. I was born and raised a Jersey boy and it pains me to see what the Democrat machine is doing to that state. I left in 1976 and never looked back. Lousenberg is nothing but a gravy sucking pig. The sooner he leaves this world of natural causes the better off we'll all be.

Re: Lautenburg - Background Checks to Purchase Powder
The libtards are having a field day with their idiotic suggestions.. If we don't continue to oppose this crap they just might get some of it passed,,, Now that's a scary thought.....Any way that Lautenburg goes, natural or other, will be fine...
