| Message | Mr. Speaker, As the UCP Congressman has stated, this is an intrusion on the people's rights. The government has NO right to take away the firearms of law-abiding citizens. These people follow the law and know what is right and wrong. Gun deaths are down ever since we began mental screenings and background checks. There is absolutely NO reason for the LFP to want to curb this basic freedom except to strip individual liberty for the enlargement of a tyrannical government. Congressman David Vilner (U-Ultran) Union Study Committee Chairman |
