There are also bills to redefine what a \u201ctrigger activator\u201d is and to make it illegal for a person with a concealed carry license to carry a firearm on school property.<\/p>\n<p>But what do the sponsors of these bills have to say? Unfortunately, none of them returned calls seeking comment.<\/p>\n<p>The Minnesota law would do more than just expand background checks, according to Brian Strawser, chairman of the Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus. The law would also require private sellers to perform background checks on buyers and keep a record of that check for 20 years.<\/p>\n<p>Strawser said a gun dealer could do the background check, and a state-issued purchase permit can be used as proof of a background check. The bill would also establish a red flag, allowing a person\u2019s firearms to be confiscated if a reporting party can convince a judge that the person is a danger to themselves or others.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in Alabama, the National Rifle Association (NRA) is calling on gun owners to oppose the new laws. But James Moses, president of the Alabama State Rifle and Pistol Association, doesn\u2019t think the laws, if passed, will have much impact.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s kind of a waste of time, in my opinion,\u201d Moses told The Epoch Times.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of your stance on gun control, it\u2019s clear that these bills will spark some intense discussions and debates. Stay tuned for updates on how these laws progress.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>State legislatures from the North and the South are considering gun control legislation this week.
