Racist Democrats target online ammo sales

May 17, 2015

  House Democrats are set to introduce a bill which would crack down on online ammo purchases. Under this proposal a person could still buy ammunition online but before the ammunition is shipped to the purchaser that person would have to go to a gun shop and present a photo ID proving he or she is who they claim to be. Once this is done the ammunition will be shipped.

  Here is more:

House Democrats are pushing legislation requiring face-to-face ammunition sales.

Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-N.J.) has introduced the Stop Online Ammunition Sales Act of 2015. The bill unveiled Tuesday would require federally licensed ammunitions dealers to confirm the identity of individuals who arrange to purchase ammunition over the Internet by verifying a photo ID in-person.

“Far too many times, we have seen the shocking images of unspeakable gun violence that could have been prevented,” Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. (D-N.J.), one of the bill’s original cosponsors, said in a joint statement. “Our bill to limit the online sale of ammunition is a long-overdue common sense reform that I am hopeful will spark Congress to put aside party difference and come together to help prevent such senseless tragedies.”

The bill would stop short of imposing an outright ban on online ammunition sales, said Courtney Cochran, Watson Coleman’s communications director.

Cochran said buyers would still be able to complete an Internet sale, but would need to present a photo I.D. in-person at an authorized dealer before the shipment can be made.  

 Supporters of this legislation call it a “common sense reform” but I have another word for it and that word is racism. After all, we have been told by Democrats for years that asking a person to confirm his or her identity before being allowed to vote is racism so how is this any different?
  These both are instances of a person trying to exercise a Constitutional right so it seems to me, using the logic of the left, that this is nothing but an attempt to keep people of color from practicing their Second Amendment right…
 
  In case you have not figured it out that is sarcasm, but on a more serious note: The bill would also require gun shops to report any ammo purchases of 1,000 rounds or more within a five day period to the Federal Government. But don’t worry, it is not like the Government has any type of right wing domestic terrorist watch list. Oh wait, nevermind…

    Absolutely, Steve!!! Why should anyone have to get the okay from the government to exercise their Constitutionally protected Right???

    Voting is restricted to citizens. It is a part of the government’s duty to ensure that only citizens vote. Voter ID is part of that assurance.
