    “Sabika Sheikh Firearm Licensing and Registration Act”

    I know, lets talk about gun control. Even before Daves favorite congressperson introduced articles of impeachment, Sheila Jackson Lee tossed this turd out there. I’m sorry, but I don’t have the stomach to paste the text at the moment. :puke:

    I'm not reading anything authored by Sheila Jackson Lee. She is from Houston and a well known idiot.

    Obviously she isn't a solo act---she keeps getting reelected

    There is no correct way to say it these days, but she is a liberal minority who represents a district of almost nothing but liberals of the same minority. She's in for life.

    "Sabika Sheikh was among 10 students and staff slain Friday at Santa Fe High School. The alleged shooter is 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis, who is being held on capital murder charges."

    A sad day for Santa Fe.

    A very sad day indeed.

    Santa Fe is a small town South of Houston. It is not in Sheila Jackson Lee's congressional district.

    A dumbed down version of AOC

    Not that it makes it any better, but the school shooting that lead to this bill being named the “Sabika Sheikh Firearm Licensing and Registration Act” and that Bill mentioned was in 2018:
    Sabika Sheikh was killed in a May 2018 shooting at Santa Fe High School near Houston that left 10 people dead and at least 13 others wounded. The Sabika for Peace Foundation will provide university scholarships to low-income Pakistani women.

    i am trying to think of a way to express my opinion of the bill and the author of it. After careful consideration , I believe it will be better if I refrain from commenting .

    And now the House sends legislation to the Senate.

    Does this mean I can’t pass my guns down to my kids? I assume all private transactions will be a crime.
