Brady Bunch Exploits 9-11 Anniversary: The Brady Bunch attacks HR 5092,
quoting, "As we fight a war on terror, we need to make sure that illegal
guns don't land in the hands of those who seek to harm the United
States," said Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY), a leading member of the
minority side in the House on the war on terror. "The ATF needs the
flexibility to crack down on the very worst gun dealers who flaunt
federal law and give the industry a bad name." (No mention is made of
the long train of abuses by that agency.)

violence prevention advocates say that they will work through the fall
and winter to educate lawmakers so as to ensure that a bill to implement
a microstamping program in California is passed next year. A
microstamping bill, AB 352, came within a single vote of passage last
week in the State Assembly before time ran out -- and it was stopped
only after a flagrant misinformation campaign by the gun industry."
