  You should be against this bill as a whole Kelly. This will make ppl criminals for something as simple as taking their kid hunting.

  The NRA is owned by the Russians in case you hadn't heard. You should prob look elsewhere for bloodmoney.

  It took Lawrence O’Donnell 22 seconds to read a bill Tom Cole(R-OK) whined about GOPers not having time to read. 26 former GOP lawmakers to Kelly Armstrong: “Honor your oath and protect the Constitution.” Will you Kelly? Or will you spat on it for Trump?

  Oh boy Kelly, that’s a tough question. How about because farmers & ranchers need to be farming & ranching due to Trump tariffs. They can’t be sucking off GOP socialism in Trump kickbacks via tax payers $$$. Work & guns aren’t a good/safe mix. Cal Bahr(R-MN) partisan curb stomper.
