I'll answer that...

First off, I don't personally know anybody who thinks "it's not a good idea to prohibit gun sales to individuals with violent criminal histories or significant mental illness."

What would make me angry is passing laws that do more than requiring universal background checks and that's exactly what this last round of bullshit tried doing. This is typical behavior from the current administration. They love passing all sorts of other laws wrapped around a single point.

I received this email today from the National Shooting Sports Foundation:

Thank your Senator Today!

Yesterday, your senator, Dean Heller, voted against a number of gun-control measures that would have banned modern sporting rifles and other commonly owned semi-automatic rifles and standard sized magazines, as well as to shut down background checks from storefront retailers during weekends. Senator Heller voted to support the Second Amendment despite relentless political pressure from President Obama and gun-control advocates like Mayor Bloomberg.

Please call Senator Heller at 202-224-6244 today and thank him for standing up for our industry and the Second Amendment.
