Seven Democrats signed? Guess who won't be getting their party nomination next election.

Hopefully they're all nominated. Bipartisan support for gun rights is important.

it's a moot point now. ATF has backed off.

Backed off for now. They'll be back.

"The ATF said in a statement on Tuesday they would not seek to issue final guidelines "at this time."

it's a mute point now. ATF has backed off.

Possibly a moot point as well...

Most likely it's still on the table, just pushed a little further away.

"The ATF said in a statement on Tuesday they would not seek to issue final guidelines "at this time."

This article is full of lies and distortions. Shame on Fox News.

"proposal to ban a popular but highly lethal type of bullet"

All bullets are lethal, hunting bullets are designed to be lethal to dear etc.

"The weapons would still work without the M855s but they would no longer be capable of firing body-armor piercing ammo."

All rifle ammo is capable of piercing body armor.

I'd like to know who wrote this disgusting article.
