Universal Background Checks… settled by Supreme Court in ’97

After passage of the Brady Bill in 1993 (our previous assault weapons ban that didn't do anything), it was challenged in court.  Printz v.

Bill to repeal presidential term limits

we have a spending problem.  The media would lead you to believe if we end the Bush tax cuts for the rich, we'll avoid the fiscal cliff.  Raising the taxes on the 'rich' will bring in around $80 billion in new revenue... less than 20% of the fiscal cliff.  Just...
