I read the Senate’s bill yesterday, but I’ll be darned if I can find it again. The most odious part of the bill is expanding background checks to private sales. Well, that and it mandates a record of those private transfers – that’s got Chuckie Schumer’s fingerprints on it, because he’s admitted in the past that background checks will lead to universal registration.

You’ll also be able to loan your gun to someone as long as you know they’re cool, and you can give one to your spouse without a background check as long as you know that spouse is otherwise eligible.
