The difference is back-door gun control. If a background check is required for powder, and one can empty out all ammunition and get all the powder you want, then it stands to reason that we'll need background checks and controlled access to ammo. Boom. Gun control. Common sense measures and all that.

With purchase limits, like we have for cold medicine.

If they can control access to ammunition and reloading supplies, then they can shut them off. With no ammo and no way to reload, our guns become nothing but funny-looking clubs. It is all about turning us into peasants, serfs, and slaves while giving us the illusion that we are still free citizens. The process is much further along than most of us want to believe.

They're saying today, that the bombs were made out of powder from fireworks.

So I suppose now we'll need a background check to buy firecrackers.

The current state of the arms market is already there, only difference is for how long the limit would last... :grumble

This morning, Williams-Sonoma stores in Massachusetts announced they were pulling there "pressure cookers" off their shelves....I'm sure everyone feels SOOOO much safer now... I'm simply amazed that anyone can not look at all the factors involved in terrorist attacks...here and abroad...and fail to grasp that the problem lies with the individuals perpetrating the attacks and NOT the random physical components they utilize. :headscratch

Yeah, because there's no way anybody could possibly figure out how to make a device that increases blast pressure if pressure cookers aren't available.

I guess Home Depot and Lowes better pull all of their metal pipes off the rack too. Good grief.
