Sweeping federal bill combines assault weapons ban, red flag laws, and universal registration in one package
The bill, already dubbed 'The Disarmament Act' by critics, would ban the sale and transfer of virtually all semi-automatic rifles, mandate federal licensing for handgun purchases, and create a national registry that gun rights advocates warn is a precursor to confiscation. Universal background checks would apply to all private transfers, effectively criminalizing lending a hunting rifle to your neighbor.
Perhaps most dangerous are the federal red flag provisions, which would allow anonymous tips to trigger firearm seizures without criminal charges or due process protections. Gun owners would be forced to prove their innocence to reclaim their propertyβa complete inversion of American justice.
The bill's sponsors are gambling that recent criminal violence incidents have softened public resistance to registration schemes. They're wrong. This legislation represents everything the Founders warned against: a government seeking to disarm citizens before it can no longer be held accountable.
