This bill is so dumb, it's like they don't even care about our rights. Why should I have to wait to buy a gun just because I got arrested? It's not fair at all. This is gonna make it harder for me to protect myself and my family. I can't believe they would pass something like this. It's gonna cause more harm than good in the long run.
