FERNDALE, MI – State Rep. John Townsend (D -Royal Oak) said in the Detroit suburb of Ferndale Sunday that he and his peers in Lansing are creating three-pronged gun control legislation.
"The issue of closing the loophole on gun purchases and requiring background checks and permitting, the issue of limiting the sizes of these bullet magazines and the issue of banning assault weapons, all three can be dealt with at the state level," Townsend told the Metro Coalition of Congregations at St. James Catholic Church. "I am very privileged to be preparing legislation on all three of those issues that I will be introducing with my colleagues in the very near future."
http://www.mlive.com/news/detroit/in..._river_defaultI know a lot of people who claim to be "pro-gun democrats" here in MI, and that really confuses me. How can any pro-gun person continue to support a party that consistently attempts to strip you of your rights or stop you from further advancing them? Last year the dems rallied together to try and stop SB59, now they are planning an all-out attack on the 2A here in MI. I hope you "pro-gun democrats" remember this when you hit the ballot box next time.
(i'm not saying the all of the MI GOP is a strong ally to us, just saying it's obvious the MI dems are against us and will continue to attack the 2A every chance they get)
