That is nonsense. What was just said on the floor is not accurate. The only thing this bill does is require a background check. If someone has legally purchased a firearm and passed a background check, nobody is going to take that gun away from them. They legally purchased it. They passed the background check. To come out with that kind of nonsense, that type of scare tactic, is not complementary to the decorum of this House, and it does not speak to this bill. {time} 1545
