Gun Owners Must Travel in Boxes – Obama Signs Bill With Major Typo | NewsReal Blog

Gun Owners Must Travel in Boxes – Obama Signs Bill With Major Typo | NewsReal Blog: "All other media outlets reporting on this new legislation – CNN, Huffington Post, Salon.com -left out the fact that the legislation contains a significant typo that exemplifies the buffoonery of current Washington leadership.

From FOXNews.com –

It may sound absurd. But President Obama signed a bill into law Wednesday that requires passengers who carry firearms aboard Amtrak be locked in boxes for their journey.

It’s a mistake in the law’s wording. But for now, the clerical error is the law of the land.

Earlier this week, Congress sent the president a massive spending bill that funded dozens of federal departments. Tucked into the transportation section of the legislation are safety requirements for Amtrak customers who carry firearms on board the government-backed train system. The bill Congress passed mandates that passengers with firearms declare they have weapons with them in advance and stow them in locked boxes while on the train."
