Why stop at one gun a month? How about one per year?
I just voted (13OCT, 7:12ET) and the tally was -
Opposed: 737 (72%)
In Favor: 223 (22%)
Good Idea: 64 (6%)
Undecided: 3 (0%)
While the socialists and other antigun bigots are at it, here are some other swell ideas -
Effective immediately, on the first day and ONLY the first day of each month -

The rest of the month, "The Government" can do as it sees fit. Who in their right mind would agree to that deal?
Who wants to live with a part time Bill of Rights?? Yet we are supposed to agree to one gun a month - that's just fine and dandy.
No it isn't.
As far as this one gun a month nonsense,
IF WE GIVE "THE GOVERNMENT" THE POWER TO SAY 'ONE' AND WE GIVE THEM THE POWER TO SAY 'NONE'.
Don't ever forget that.
