nothing I said was "conspiracy theory" territory. Everything I said can by verified by looking at current federal laws. It is demonstrable fact the number of MAIG felons vs everyone else.
No, it is not logical to "guess it is correct" because they reached the conclusion before the data, and the demonstrated dishonesty in general. If the NRA or SAF made a claim about anything you did not take at face value, would you be in "conspiracy theory territory?"
In other words, it is up to them to show their work and to propose ideas that deal with trafficking instead bitching about shall issue and complain about states not having redundant state laws, when federal laws already exist to deal with the issue. I also notice you looked over another lie, that the amendment hinders local law enforcement, when it reads
That no funds appropriated under this or any other Act with respect to any fiscal year may be used to disclose part or all of the contents of the Firearms Trace System database maintained by the National Trace Center of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives or any information required to be kept by licensees pursuant to section 923(g) of title 18, United States Code, or required to be reported pursuant to paragraphs (3) and (7) of such section 923(g), to anyone other than a Federal, State, or local law enforcement agency or a prosecutor solely in connection with and for use in a bona fide criminal investigation or prosecution and then only such information as pertains to the geographic jurisdiction of the law enforcement agency requesting the disclosure and not for use in any civil action or proceeding other than an action or proceeding commenced by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, or a review of such an action or proceeding, to enforce the provisions of chapter 44 of such title, and all such data shall be immune from legal process and shall not be subject to subpoena or other discovery, shall be inadmissible in evidence, and shall not be used, relied on, or disclosed in any manner, nor shall testimony or other evidence be permitted based upon such data, in any civil action pending on or filed after the effective date of this Act in any State (including the District of Columbia) or Federal court or in any administrative proceeding other than a proceeding commenced by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to enforce the provisions of that chapter, or a review of such an action or proceeding
What MAIG actually opposes is the underlined. ATF and Tiahart are correct on this. My tax money should not be used to support propaganda regardless of who it is.
