Feinstein to Propose New National Gun Law Legislation 12/20/01California Democrat and longtime anti-gun advocate U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein announced today she plans to introduce legislation that would bring the nation in line with her home state's stringent laws regarding gun sales and background checks.Feinstein said she will introduce legislation early next year that would require background checks for all gun sales, whether they occur at a licensed dealer, flea market, gun show or between private individuals. The federal law would mirror current California law, which requires all gun purchases and transfers, including those between private parties and at gun shows, be made through a licensed dealer, according to California Attorney General Bill Lockyer's office. Feinstein made her announcement today on Capitol Hill in conjunction with the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence's release of new report outlining the connection between terrorism and the firearm availability in the United States. "I intend to hold a hearing in the Judiciary Subcommittee on Terrorism, Technology and Government Information early next year on this report which ... shows it is very easy for terrorists to purchase firearms in this nation,'' Feinstein said. "We already know that children can buy guns all too easily in order to kill other children. We know that gang members and criminals can do the same,'' Feinstein said. "Clearly, the time has come for a universal background check on all gun sales. ...'' Feinstein said she believes U.S. citizens, including members of the National Rifle Association, would support universal background checks. http://www.bayinsider.com/partners/ktvu/news/2001/12/20/guns.html

    The Nation does not need to be "brought in line" with anything done in Kalifornia. Can't we sell that state back to Mexico? I'm sure we can get a few pesos for it...here is her web page http://www.senate.gov/~feinstein/ It has an office phone # I urge everyone to call her with your comments !!!!!

    If I recall correctly, isn't there a fault-line that runs along the east coast of Kalifornia? Maybe if we all get together and jump up and down at the same time, PRC will come loose and just slide into the ocean. Might be worth a try!

    Need to get active and distribute the following. Note the call for boycotting California towards the end. This will transfer to a "word" format and fit on a flyer for anyone who wants to distribute it at gunshows or gunshops.BOYCOTT LIST FOR SECOND AMENDMENT SUPPORTERSThis list is provided to let Supporters of the Second Amendment know what companies are supplying financial support, policies, or leadership to anti-gun forces. This support may be in the form of monetary contributions, anti-gun policies, or leadership endorsement of anti-Second Amendment causes.In looking over this list, you may well see companies it is nearly impossible to avoid doing business with, due to their size or the virtual monopoly they represent in their respective products. You may see companies that supply goods or services so desirable to you, or to your family, that you will think it would create a tremendous burden if you elected to discontinue a business relationship.IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU, AS A SUPPORTER OF THE SECOND AMMENDMENT, TO KNOW THAT IF YOU BUY ANY GOODS, SERVICES, OR LEND ANY SUPPORT TO ANY OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS, YOU HAVE DONATED TO THE MOVEMENT TO DESTROY YOUR RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS.It may not be possible for you to completely eliminate purchasing from a particular company on this list. If it is not possible, then would you consider REDUCING THE AMMOUNT YOU SPEND WITH THAT COMPANY? Spend only what you "have" to, don't buy any extra goods or services. Before you spend, consider if there is an alternative, somewhere you can spend that money where it will not be used to take your guns away, or restrict your ability to own them!Please, think twice before doing business or supporting any of the following: A & M RecordsAmerican Century CompaniesAmerican Multi Cinemas Entertainment, Inc.AOL - America On LineArgosy CasinoBen & Jerry's Homemade, Inc.Better Homes and GardensBJC Health SystemsBlue Chip StampsBlue Cross Blue Shield - Kansas CityBrooks InvestmentsCarter Hawley Hale Stores, Inc.The Christian Publishing SocietyThe Christian Science MonitorCrown Central Petroleum Corp.Development Specialists - ChicagoEarthgrains - St. LouisGeneral American Life InsuranceHallmark CardsHealth MidwestHyatt corporationICN BiomedicalsJames B.Nutter Co.
