Michael Moore Instagram – THE 28th AMENDMENT
SECTION 1.
The inalienable right of a free people to be kept safe from gun violence and the fear thereof must not be infringed and shall be protected by the Congress. This Amendment thus repeals and replaces the Second Amendment.
SECTION 2.
Congress shall create a mandatory system of firearm registration and licensing for the following limited purposes: (a) licensed hunters of game; (b) licensed ranges for the sport of target shooting; and (c) for the few who can prove a special need for personal protection.
All who seek a firearm will undergo a strict vetting process with a thorough background check, including the written approval of family members, ex-spouses and partners. A mental health check will also be required. There will be a waiting period of one month to complete the full background check.
SECTION 3.
Those who successfully pass the background check must take a firearms safety class and pass a written test.
SECTION 4.
The minimum age for the restricted groups who can own a firearm is 25 years old.
SECTION 5.
Congress will stipulate and update the limited list of approved firearms for civilian use. The following firearms are heretofore banned:
• All automatic and semi-automatic weapons and all devices which can enable a single-shot gun to fire automatically or semi-automatically;
• Any weapon that can hold more than six bullets or rounds at a time or any magazine that holds more than six bullets.
SECTION 6.
Congress shall regulate all ammunition and its capacity, the storage of guns, gun locks, sights, body armor and the sale and distribution of such items. Congress may create future restrictions as this amendment specifically does not grant any American the “right” to own any weapon.
SECTION 7.
Police shall be subject to strict and comprehensive monitoring and shall be dismissed if found to exhibit any racist or violent behavior.
SECTION 8.
Persons already owning any of the above banned firearms will have one month from the ratification of this Amendment to turn in their firearms for destruction by local law enforcement.
