Senator Uses Boston Bombings to Introduce Bill Restricting Gunpowder

While the media was occupied with the Boston bombings, Senator Frank Lautenberg decided to use the event to push his new legislation that would regulate the purchase of gunpowder in order to ‘reduce terrorism’.
gunpowder billThe Senator from New Jersey made the announcement on his Senate page, detailing how his bill would initiate full background checks on anyone seeking to purchase gunpowder (also known as black powder). A move that would ultimately affect law-abiding citizens who are purchasing gunpowder for their own use, just as ‘gun free zones’ have been shown to allow for criminals to run amok due to the disarmament of the average citizen. Full-fledged terrorists simply will not submit to background checks to purchase gunpowder, especially when there are so many easier options.
As J.D. Tuccille points out in writing for the Reason.com blog, the entire concept of event-based banning is inherently flawed. Virtually anything can be used to make a dangerous explosive if the individual is truly intent on doing so. After all, why not ban pressure cookers after it was confirmed that the suspect had used pressure cookers to ignite the explosives in a concealed and virtually undetectable manner? As Tuccille writes:
“Even simple flour can explode under the right circumstances (see the photo up above) — those circumstances occurring all too easily for those who manufacture the stuff or store large quantities. The bloody Oklahoma City bombing was committed with an explosive made from common fertilizer and fuel oil. “
And he’s right. Even AP is reporting today, on the 18th anniversary of the event, about how the Oklahoma City bomber used those exact ingredients with ease to create a powerful explosive — free of gunpowder. It’s also interesting to note that gunpowder is not a new invention created for acts of terror, or even modern use at all. We’re talking about a substance that goes back to 220 BC when the Chinese accidentally created it. We’re also talking about a substance of which the consumer prime use is for law-abiding citizens to reload their own ammunition.

It’s Not About The Bombings, It’s About Pushing the Gun Control Agenda

Ultimately, it’s not about the Boston bombings utilizing a powder from 220 BC that could easily have been substituted for a million other things. Instead, it’s about pushing the gun control agenda that seeks to remove firearms from the hands of law-abiding citizens. Amid the Boston Marathon press, no one mentions the deaths from Chicago crime — where gun control is extremely strict. There’s even a website dedicated to tracking the deaths.
Instead, Senator Lautenberg is riding off the emotional reaction of the Boston bombings to slip his legislation as an amendment into the gun violence prevention bill which currently sits on the Senate floor. If Senator Lautenberg is truly concerned about explosives, and not just furthering the gun control agenda, then he should also ban fertilizer, flour, fuel oil, and just about a million other substances that pre-date even gunpowder. Oh, and he should probably consider banning knives, hammers, and human hands as well considering they kill more per year than rifles.
