Realistically, we all know that the vast majority of Democrats are against gun owner ship.

Sure, some may own guns, but they are not really supporter of gun rights.. They have no problem with adding restriction after restriction.

So now, knowing that in the past gun rights groups put their money where their vote is, a bunch of Democrats are supporting S.2363 -- Bipartisan Sportsmen's Act of 2014.

The problem is, it is a fake bill.

While it proposes to open up areas, it gives appointees the right to keep those areas closed if they want to..

As an example... Here is why the BLM can close the lands they are supposed to open..

http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c113:S.2363:

Land described in subparagraph (A)(i) may be subject to closures or restrictions if determined by the head of the agency to be necessary and reasonable and supported by facts and evidence for purposes including resource conservation, public safety, energy or mineral production, energy generation or transmission infrastructure, water supply facilities, protection of other permittees, protection of private property rights or interests, national security, or compliance with other law, as determined appropriate by the Director of the Bureau of Land Management or the Chief of the Forest Service, as applicable.

Any bets that the Head of BLM, the same people who want to shut down ranches for turtles, will find a reason to not open up the lands?

But the Democrats, and their friends in the media, will proclaim that all the Democrats want to do is allow reasonable restrictions on hunting and that this bill is proof of it. After all, it "Opens" Federal lands for hunting and even shooting ranges.

Not really.. but it's a nice try.
