Bill: Protecting the Innocent Act of 3436
Details
Submitted by[?]: Democratic Centrist Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: March 3437
Description[?]:
| Allowing people with a violent or criminal background to purchase and own lethal fire arms constitutes a great risk for innocent people to get hurt and is, in our opinion, quite irresponsible. We support the idea of individuals owning weapons but feel that it is a privilege rather than a right - criminal activities or mental illnesses with a propensity for violence should be reason enough for an individual to lose that privilege. |
