I can't believe this bill is passing, it's so unfair! This is going to affect so many people, including me. I don't understand why they are taking away our rights like this. It's just not right. I feel like this is a violation of our freedoms and it's really sad to see this happening. I hope something can be done to stop this from happening. Did you know that this bill also includes provisions for increased background checks for gun purchases?
