Thats a shame but its not going to stop people from stealing guns. Nothing in your proposal stops the original theft. It just takes the heat off the thief and puts it on the victim. Also in that proposal there is something about notifying about a move. I myself have been a victim of the DMV not updating their files after I've been there twice to change my address. Because of there paperwork error I'd become a criminal and loose my job. Great idea.

Evidently these officers didn't have there guns properly secured and they should have known better. An average citizen may not be held to the same standard but an officer should know better. I do agree that people should be given some common sense safety precautions when buying a gun but the rest of this proposal sounds like the beginning of the end of our constitutional rights.

BTW my guns are locked in a safe. The safe is locked and would be very hard to move, but not impossible. If they were able to get the safe open they'd have to get the gun locks off the guns individually. What more can be asked? I'm not giving up my guns.

BTW Bobby Rush Democrat from Illinois who sponsored HR 45 was a former leader of the Black Panthers(a gang on the south side of Chicago)in his youth.

I'm not worried about myself I'm worried that our constitutional rights being taken away. The right to bear arms is so important it is the second amendment. It was so important to our founding fathers that the only thing that was listed first was the freedom of speech we are both enjoying by posting here.

Such rights in that sense have already ceased. Since it is not legal or it is very, very hard to attain certain weapons, the kind of weapons that are currently afforded to the state and government.

Certain points of the alarmist forwarded email sound like getting a driver license. Does that mean they will soon be coming to our doors to confiscate our vehicles?

The only bit I find objectionable, and somewhat unlikely in the email is the grandfathered clause. Everything else seems reasonable. Though some could be expanded. A single thumb print? Should get a print of all fingers and perhaps sample of DNA.

You mean that if a firearm is stolen now, and you don't report it. You aren't a criminal?

A way to handle the criminal gun issue is that if the gun is used in a crime, that isn't purely self defense. Yes, self defense shouldn't be a crime, but some states disregard that when it comes to cops and no knock warrants. Then, a mandatory fifty years of jail time on top of any other time issued. Even if the weapon was not fired, or the victim was injured or killed. Fifty years, no probation on top of any other sentence with no ability to plead down that time in court.

WOMAN'S PERFECT BREAKFAST

She's sitting at the table with her gourmet coffee.

Her son is on the cover of the Wheaties box.

Her daughter is on the cover of Business Week.

Her boyfriend is on the cover of Playgirl.

And her husband is on the back of the milk carton.



Keep reading-they get better!!!


------------------------------------------------





WOMEN'S REVENGE

'Cash, check or charge?' I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.

As she fumbled for her wallet, I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.

'So, do you always carry your TV remote?' I asked.

'No,' she replied, 'but my husband refused to come shopping with me,

and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him legally.'




UNDERSTANDING WOMEN (A MAN'S PERSPECTIVE)

I know I'm not going to understand women.

I'll never understand how you can take boiling hot wax,

pour it onto your upper thigh, rip the hair out by the root,

and still be afraid of a spider.


------------------------------------------------





MARRIAGE SEMINAR

While attending a Marriage Seminar dealing with communication,

Tom and his wife Grace listened to the instructor,

'It is essential that husbands and wives know each other's likes and dislikes.'

He addressed the man,

'Can you name your wife's favorite flower?'

Tom leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, 'It's Pillsbury, isn't it?


------------------------------------------------





CIGARETTES AND TAMPONS

A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up & down the aisles.

The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him.

He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife.

She directs him down the correct aisle.

A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cottonballs and a ball of string on the counter.

She says, confused, 'Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?

He answers, 'You see, it's like this,yesterday, I sent my wife to the store

to get me a carton of cigarettes, and she came back with a tin of tobacco

and some rollingpapers; cause it's sooo-ooo--oo- ooo much cheaper.

So, I figure if I have to roll my own .......... so does she.

(I figure this guy is the one on the milk carton!)


------------------------------------------------




WIFE VS. HUSBAND

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word.

An earlier discussion had led to an argument and

neither of them wanted to concede their position.

As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs,

the husband asked sarcastically, 'Relatives of yours?'

'Yep,' the wife replied, 'in-laws.'


------------------------------------------------




WORDS

A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day...

30, 000 to a man's 15,000.

The wife replied, 'The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men...

The husband then turned to his wife and asked, 'What?'


------------------------------------------------




CREATION

A man said to his wife one day, 'I don't know how you can be

so stupid and so beautiful all at the same time.

'The wife responded, 'Allow me to explain.

God made me beautiful so you would be attracted to me;

God made me stupid so I would be attracted to you!


------------------------------------------------




WHO DOES WHAT

A man and his wife were having an argument about who

should brew the coffee each morning.

The wife said, 'You should do it because you get up first,

and then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee.

The husband said, 'You are in charge of cooking around here and

you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee.'

Wife replies, 'No, you should do it, and besides, it is in the Bible that the man should do the coffee.'

Husband replies, 'I can't believe that, show me.'

So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament

and showed him at the top of several pages, that it indeed says

'HEBREWS'




The Silent Treatment

A man and his wife were having some problems at home

and were giving each other the silent treatment.
Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him

at 5:0 0 AM for an early morning business flight.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper,

'Please wake me at 5:00 AM.'He left it where he knew she would find it.

The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AM

and he had missed his flight Furious, he was about to go andsee why his wife hadn't wakened him,

when he noticed a piece of paper bythe bed.

The paper said, 'It is 5:00 AM. Wake up.'

Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.

Dear Friend

Please I sincerely ask for your apology to intrude into your private life.I am Miranda Lawson,born in 1987,The Only Daughter of my late parents Mr and Mrs Lawson from Angola.

I will like to brief you alittle about my family and what led me to contact you. My father was an oil facilitator throughout his life time. He left home on 3rd september 2001 to meet his partner in united states of America for a proposed project.Regrettably that was the last eye we set on him because shortly after september 11th he stoped calling us, it was later confirmed through the media that he was involved in the ugly incident of sept 11.

Shortly after, my Mum also died of heart attack on 18th of january 2004.
Before his death, my father deposited the sum of 16.4 million United States Dollars with an annual interest of 4.290 deposited for the purpose of establishing an oil extracting company with the partner in united states, with my name as the next of kin.All documents relating to the deposit of the fund is safely with me.

I made inquiries with the bank where this money is deposited and was told i cant make any withdrawals because the fund is protected under the backlays/cash-in-Transit policy contract with American International Group(AIG) to guide against any case of false claim.

I was advised by the bank to get any older relative who can stand with me to process the transfer of the money to a du ly acknowledged account overseas.

My reason for contacting you is that i dont trust any of my relatives and can not reveal this secret to them. I want to deal with somebody very far away, way from the memory of my past.

Now I want you to act as my guardian so claim the 16.4 million in my father's account. If you do this for me,I will be forever grateful to you. If you accept to give me this great help,write me back without delay. Get back to me with the information below.(mirandalawson@live.com)

Yours sincerely,
Miranda Lawson
