H.R. 127 has been proposed by that commie bitch Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX)

H.R. 127 would ban common types of ammunition, including every shotgun shell larger than .410.

The bill states: “It shall be unlawful for any person to possess ammunition that is 0.50 caliber or greater.”

Violations of this ban would result in the imposition of a fine of at least $50,000 and imprisonment of at least 10 years, mandatory penalties not seen in many violent or infamous federal crimes, including torturing someone to death outside the U.S. or committing treason during wartime.

Hunting whitetail deer would be legally impossible in at least 10 U.S. states if these restrictions went into effect.

The bill would also make it impossible for Americans to follow President Biden’s advice to keep a double-barreled, 12 gauge shotgun for self-defense, rather than an AR-15.

Innumerable numbers of shotgun shells currently possessed by law-abiding people for lawful purposes would suddenly become contraband.

The bill states: “It shall be unlawful for any person to possess a large capacity ammunition feeding device”, and defines such devices to include those “that can be readily restored or converted to accept, more than 10 rounds of ammunition,” excluding certain integral .22 rimfire magazines. (Industry production figures show that there are hundreds of millions of 11+ round magazines)

As with its ban on shotgun shells, H.R.127’s magazine ban would apply retroactively, affecting items already owned by millions of Americans for lawful purposes, with no compensation for owners forced to relinquish property that was lawful when obtained.

H.R. 127 would require the federal government to register some 400 million guns in the span of only 3 months. The bill states that registration information would have to be provided to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosive, “in the case of a firearm acquired before the effective date of this section, within 3 months after the effective date of this section.” (And the BATFE would also have to create the registration system during those 3 months.)

Because the U.S. (intentionally) does not already have a national firearms registry, it would be impossible for the government to fairly and effectively enforce this system with respect to existing gun owners.

The firearm registry database would have to be made available to “all members of the public,” as well as “all branches of the United States Armed Forces,” among others.

This would facilitate private discrimination against gun owners, including in such things as employment and access to essential services such as banking, insurance, or housing. (It also seems to presuppose that the military, which is prohibited by law from engaging in domestic law enforcement, has some role in policing civilian firearm ownership.)

The bill would require a license to possess any firearm, and licenses would only be available to those aged 21 or older.

Anyone who had been hospitalized with a “brain disease” would also be ineligible for a license, including those suffering from brain cancer, epilepsy, and Parkinson’s disease.

It would require the holder of a firearm license to pay a tax (masquerading as government-issued “insurance”) of $800 per year.

License applicants (and even other members of their household, as directed) would also have to undergo a psychological evaluation at their own expense.

SO.... tell me again how we're going to take back the country by working our way starting at local election. Because, there won't be a country left by the time that happens!
