It should be difficult for the State or Federal governments to take the life, liberty, or property of the citizens.
The House has a bill in committee called HR 5717 - Gun Violence Prevention and Community Safety Act of 2020. The bill proposes to do a number of things from establishing a Federal Firearms License to own firearms and ammunition, raise the minimum age to purchase a firearm, defines and bans “assault” weapons, bans “silencers” and mufflers, enforces secure gun storage orders, and levies heavy taxes on firearms and ammunition. In the end, HR 5717 is an attempt to strip away liberty, minimize the Second Amendment, and criminalize otherwise benign firearms ownership.
