Assault weapons ban dropped from Senate gun control bill
The leader of the Democrat-controlled Senate on Tuesday dropped a proposed assault weapons ban from the chamber’s gun-control package – dealing a blow to supporters of the ban, though it could still come up for a vote.
The sponsor of the measure, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., revealed that Reid told her the proposed ban would not be in the initial package. Feinstein said she's "disappointed" with the decision, and is expected to nevertheless offer it as an amendment.
Gramnesty's bill on improved Mental Health additions to NICS has a better chance to pass.
BUT watch out for the UBC provision to gain traction.
edit: Forgot to add. If Dingy thinks any gun control legislation is going to cost the Dems seats in 2014, it won't get a vote or be amended so much as to be worthless.

Beware Schumer and universal backround checks.
Call today and tell your Congresscritters UBC is a non-starter.
True, gives the rats cover to start a gun owners registration list, which is what they wanted. Nothing wrong with a long term gun lease, x amount up front and a penny in fifty years.
I am not a republican I am a conservative, and supporter of the rule of law. And refuse to support any of Roves dopes.

Nerd: "now a vote against her will help the rats cover a vote for a smaller gun grab measure...." "gives the rats cover to start a gun owners registration list, which is what they wanted...."
I was tryin' to recruit someone to join RR, but he read some of your comments and decided to go have root canal surgery without Novocaine instead.
