| Message | The SLP rejects outright. Being allowed to kill at your own will is not a right. Some wing of this congress is building brick by brick its fame of likeness for terrorism. |

| Message | How does this bill allow people to kill each other at will? Bad people will always be able to get a gun and hurt people. So in turn the only thing that can stop a bad person with a gun, is a good person with a gun. By making it harder for good people to buy and own a gun, you are insuring that innocent people will die. |

| Message | Terrorism? This bill gives us the best chances we have to fight terrorism. If our citizens are armed, they'll be able to halt any imminent terrorist attack in its tracks when they see it coming. |

| Message | While we don't oppose people being allowed to own a gun for self-defense, we consider that allowing people to purchase guns without checking (at the minimum) if they have a past conviction for a violent crime, are suffering from mental health issues, made threats to use guns against another person or the society in general- to be irresponsible, |
