In a moment of supreme irony, a legislator proposes an unconstitutional law intended to prevent other legislators from proposing unconstitutional laws. . .
Another way to look at it is that if it's unconstitutional to infringe on the right to keep and bear arms, then holding an elected official - that has sworn to uphold those rights - accountable for breaking that public trust is the right thing to do.

I'm ot so sure about this one - but - I'm for damned sure solidly behind any efforts made to hold elected officials accountable for their actions.

As it is now, they all get a free pass...

What sanctions are placed on private citizens when they violate someone's constitutional rights?
We're held accountable for that - why shouldn't a person in an elected office be held just as - if not more so - accountable for their actions?
