Yes, it is of grave concern. The enemies of the amendments to the U. S.Constitution, want to attack by legislating around, instead of fighting for a repeal. They know how to hide their amendments in bills that are so large that one small line is easily overlooked by the staffers who attempt to scan the bill and report as best they can to the Senator they serve. Maybe some hope of it being removed, or if not, neutered, by this method, as mentioned in the article.
"Gun owners should count themselves lucky that the final text of the 2021 NDAA will be determined through conference negotiations in the coming weeks with Senate Republicans and the White House."
Where is the NRA? I ask, where did Wayne LaPierre ever say "these attacks on me personally, as to my mis-management of the NRA, and my personal mis-use of funds, by the liberal press, and enemies of the the second amendment to the US Constitution, are pure B.S. and I challenge them to provide proof of their accusations".
Silence. What happened to "stand your ground", when basically being called an out of control despot in the press?
Does his silence in demanding proof indicate guilt?, to some people it could. Many thousands of members have not renewed their NRA membership, based on things like the official NRA lack of effort fighting the bump stock bans, and in some cases, their disgust that stories about in-fighting in the top executive positions, looks like a organization that is back bitting and self serving, internally.
I know that in most cases Im preaching to the choir here, but anyway, thanks for bringing the red flag attack wording in the bill to our attention. It takes all of us to watch for attacks, I doubt that any one person can read and be informed about the miriad of the attacks we have, that we as law abiding citizens face every day from city, state and Federal sources.
