Not a lot of factual information around the content of this US Senate Judiciary Committee hearing and what it will focus on, but the speculation is starting...

http://judiciary.senate.gov/hearings/hearing.cfm?id=4771

A user over at thefiringline summed it up pretty well I think...:

"I sincerely doubt they'd be dumb enough to try and introduce new restrictions two months before the mid-terms. Then again, folks do some pretty dumb stuff.

If it's true reform of the regulatory process, it could be a good thing.

If it's an attempt at new restrictions, it will fail to pass, and it will generate public outcry, which would also be a good thing." - Tom Servo

Not that I'm suspious or anything like that, but doesn't it sound like the perfect follow on meeting discriptor to begin discussion on the impact of our Secretary of State signing the UN arms import/commerce international agreement?

But, not to worry they are there in DC watching out for us.....

So do we know what their intentions are?, what exactly are the goals of the reform?

Let me guess, if you keep repeating it, it becomes true, NOT. Hillary has not and will not sign it, Congress will not ratify it.

Most firearm owners don't even buy into the fear mongering above.
