Sure. Until another Congress decides to repeal the provisions. Or maybe just until Dear Leader decides to ignore them and tells the Chief Law Enforcement Official in the Republic (you know? The fellow who has nothing but contempt for the part of the legislature which currently holds HIM in "Criminal Contempt of Congress".) to send ATF, DHS and whomever else to do whatever Dear Leader wants done this week. It might not happen until his 3rd term (if a provision of the main body does not hold sway surely a mere amendment would hold no MORE sway.) but it will happen - unless his Most August and Divine Majesty Barak the First simply chooses to veto the thing and sets the lapdog media to demonizing the evil GOP for putting such dreck into the bill in the first place.
One of the provisions dealt with not allowing the DoJ to change the definition of an "antique gun." I actually think that this definition SHOULD be changed. When it was first enacted, in 1968, an "antique gun" was defined as anything made prior to January 1,1899 (i.e. 70 years old). I would be in favor of replacing "prior to January 1,1899" with "more than 70 years prior to purchase." Let's see, we'd be up to all guns made before 1943 at this point.

I have no idea who Bill is, but bless him.

Where's Bill Rodman when we need a little "justice"?

P. S. does anybody have any idea how hard it is to interpret and enter these motherfuckin' anti-robot ideograms when one is drunk?
