The Toomey-Manchin Amendment which may be offered as soon as Tuesday to Senator Reid’s gun control bill are billed as a “compromise” which contain a variety of provisions for gun control, and other provisions to enhance gun rights. Some of the latter, however, are not what they seem. They are badly miswritten, and are in fact major advancements for gun control.

I see Schumer & Bloomberg's hand in this.

The NRA "unequivocally opposes" the Manchin-Toomey amendment.

That tells me all I need to know regarding whether I should support or oppose.

There is nothing pro-gun about it.....it was written deliberately in vague language that allows the "pro" parts to be interpreted narrowly and the "anti" parts to be interpreted expansively.
