It is already illegal for a convicted felon to possess a firearm. I haven't done any research, but I'm pretty sure murder is illegal in Utah as well. Here's a thought, lets actually prosecute those individuals who make straw purchases, these are laws that are already on the books, where those found guilty walk more times than not. https://www.omaha.com/news/crime/woman-who-bought-gun-used-in-kerrie-orozco-slaying-sentenced/article_dcd60ace-8716-5651-9125-cb297998694e.html https://thefederalistpapers.org/us/chicago-crime-rate-soars-as-four-time-straw-purchaser-gets-probation http://archive.jsonline.com/news/crime/milwaukee-man-to-be-sentenced-on-gun-fraud-charge-b99560011z1-322283481.html/ A large portion of guns used for violence are stolen or bought on the black market. I doubt these people are going to be bothered with universal background checks. https://www.thetrace.org/2018/10/stolen-guns-are-fueling-violence-in-chicago/

"look at us, we did something".

Well, if you buy from an FFL, they lose their license if they transfer ownership without a NICS check. Contrary to popular belief, you can't just order guns online and have them shipped to your door, they have to go to an FFL, who takes possession of them, and performs a NICS check before transferring ownership to you. Also contrary to popular belief, you can't just drive over from Illinois and buy a bunch of guns and take them back to Chicago to kill people. Illinois residents can not purchase firearms from an Indiana FFL. What this bill addresses is the so called gun show loop hole. You see my sweet Wilson Combat Beretta FS92G and you say wow IO, I have to have that gun. And we agree to a price, you hand me cash, and I hand you the gun. This bill would require us to go to an FFL and you would have to have a NICS check before taking ownership of the gun. My point being, if this were to become law, not being interested having a felony charge on my record, I would follow the law, and you're going to have to pay an extra 25-50 bucks for whatever the FFL charges for the NICS check, i.e., more hoops for law abiding citizens to jump thru to remain law abiding citizens. In retrospect, name one shooting that this bill would have prevented? It doesn't stop Sandy Hook, it doesn't stop Pulse Nightclub, it doesn't stop Parkland, it doesn't stop Sutherland Springs, it doesn't stop Aurora, CO or IL.... It's feel good legislation, at least we did "something". I feel better, don't you?

Apparently I was given some erroneous information. I checked the amendments that were offered and found an article stating the same thing I "thought". Apparently I was looking at the wrong info on the house website. As I originally stated, the bill is basically symbolic at this point there's no chance of it happening now. Not to say it won't happen in the future. ****I have attempted to edit my original post to correct the error, but I don't have an edit option.**** W82, not this amendment per se, the entire bill makes life more difficult for law abiding citizens. Per FOPA, there can not be a national firearms registry, which this bill clearly states it does not create. How is it possible to enforce this feel good legislation without a national registry?

John Wayne was unavailable for comment.

I just find it odd, we’re willing to let a group of law breakers off the hook, in order to make life more difficult for law abiders.

Fresh off their symbolic background check win, with the passage of HR8, I find it very interesting that an amendment to the bill that would require FFL’s to report illegal aliens to ICE that failed a NICS check. The amendment was voted down on a partly line vote with several D defectors. Illegal aliens are, with a few exceptions, prohibited possessors. It begs the question, why? André Carson and Pete Visclosky, Indiana’s on D house members both voted nay.

Did you listen to the interview, there’s a reason they have it. Look, I don’t care one way or the other, if you don’t like the rule, contact your principal and get it changed.

I don’t disagree, to my point, get the government out of the equation, let the market it sort it out. The oil industry still stands to gain, even with alternative energy technologies. The already have a retail and distribution network in place.

I don’t know anyone that’s against emerging alternative fuel technologies. The difference in opinions is how that technology develops and the extent of government involvement in either developing or forcing the technology and artificially manipulating the market.

I've tried Joe Rogan's podcasts......I just can't do it. He has some interesting people, but he puts out like 10 a day and they're 14 hours long each.

I'm hanging my hat on 9.9.1 in the case book. A is trailing by five points near the end of the fourth period and has no time-outs left when the play ends on B's 3. The referee does not feel there is any illegal delay in unpiling and that time will definitely expire before the ball is ready and A gets in position to snap. Quarterback A1 reaches into the pile of players and grabs the ball. He then throws the ball to midfield. RULING: Even if the referee imposes a 15-yard penalty for an unsportsmanlike act, A has accomplished its goal – the clock is stopped and it can get in position and be ready to run a play even though the clock will start on the ready-for-play signal. This situation illustrates when it is appropriate for the referee to invoke the unfair-act rule and handle the situation in any way that the referee feels is equitable. In this specific situation the referee should wind the clock and end the game without giving A an opportunity to put the ball in play. COMMENT: The rule also gives the referee authority to take appropriate action whenever someone not subject to the rules hinders play. (3-4-6)

Not really sure this move changes anything. Typically the first move for the little ones is to stand up anyway.

Perhaps VOC could add it to the NGD.

Presumably Mishawaka will replace Memorial in the NLC. Elkhart Central will continue as Elkhart in the NIC.

He was enrolled, he was taking class, via elearning, the school was the one seeking the waiver. Cox clearly states it's the IHSAA's position that their protocol is to grant the waivers if the school requests it, I really don't see how it's the IHSAA's fault. It's not the IHSAA's place to discipline member schools' athletes. We will have to agree to disagree on this one.

Clock should start on the RFP with a 25 second play clock. The R has the authority to run the clock out if in his opinion the stoppage was due to B's attempt to illegally conserve time. Perhaps wind the game clock and blow the RFP somewhere below 25 on the game clock. Regardless of your decision, someone is not going to be happy with you.

We live in a rural area. My kids drove a considerable amount before they were 16, with me. I felt it was important to impart wisdom I had gained from driving for years, and not just relegate them to standard driver's ed. I grew up the same way, drove box trucks, small trailers, large trailers, etc. from the time I was probably 11-12 years old. The one thing I always tried to impart on them was focus. If you make a mistake on your homework, you get a lower grade, if you make a mistake on the athletic field, you get a seat on the bench, no big deal, but if you make a mistake on the road, it may cost you your life. That's a big price to pay. I really tried to discourage texting and driving. And the were told under no uncertain terms, drinking and driving would be the end of their driving career.

It should be pointed out, yes I have been on the GID that long.

That I can't answer, but no one has been drafted in the last 46 years, nor do I see it happening any time soon.

I have been told by administration at Memorial, single school begins 21-22 school year. It's still two years away.

The Draft Should be Abolished for Everyone — Not Just Women I was under the impression the draft was ended in 1973, did I miss something?
