| Message | We should have explained earlier that you are supposed to allow adequate debate time (4-6 months) before going to the voting process. This allows time for parties to compromise and potentially change some aspects of a bill. |

| Message | No, believe me there is, there is a national urge to end violence and eliminate crime, and most crimes in fact are attributed to guns, and to keep our nation safe, we should extend gun ownership guidelines to prevent guns from getting in the hands of the people that we should be mor cautious about giving firearms to.

| Message | PFP, criminals, law breakers, have a tendency to use illegal firearms, whether or not legal firearms are easy to get. This Bill wouldn't decrease violent gun crime, it would simply decrease the number of firearms held by sane law abiding citizens. |
