Slack Opposes Panic Gun Laws Enforcement First
Washington Congressman John M. Slack argues that enforcing existing gun laws is a better response than rushing new rules. He notes 1965 House hearings found no treasury regs enforcing licensing records or purchaser checks. He warns against blanket registration and surrender proposals, saying they would disarm law abiding citizens while criminals ignore them. Slack favors stricter enforcement of current laws and targeted measures over broad bans.
