But --- But --- But, none of my rifles use clps, high-capacity or otherwise. They all use magazines. (I know. What does the person who gave us "The shoulder thing that goes up" know about guns?) (Hey! Maybe we could let her figure out which end the bullets come out of? Naw. We'd have to be Liberals & Democrats to do that.)

Ditto.

Thank goodness private sales can be conducted in between gun shows. But don't tell them.

Only if they also require face-to-face purchases of iTunes and eBooks, licensing of Tupperware dealers, and reporting of bulk carbonated beverage purchases (multiple containers of more than 16 oz each).

My firearms do not drive, fish, or perform any professional/occupational activities and therefore do not need a license. They also are not required to get rabies shots. Sorry if this is not te case where you live.

Ditto.

A "shovel-ready" job. I can hire out as a gun bearer.

As soon as they start requiring background checks before a politician casts any vote. (I was going to add that politicians should report all bribes received, but there is already a law about that they are ignoring.)

Hooray! Yes!!

Ditto.

stay safe.

PS - Yes, I am going to be sending all three Congresscritters my individual thoughts on each one of these.
