Even the NRA opposes Tiahrt’s Pro-guns amendment

Rep. Todd Tiahrt has had to pro-criminal gun policy to, of all people, the National Rifle Association.

According to The Wichita Eagle:

The dispute continues about whether the Tiahrt amendment does or doesn’t restrict police access to gun trace data. A Washington Post commentary, excerpted on this blog, reported that 69 percent of National Rifle Association members polled had a problem with the Tiahrt amendment’s restrictions. The office of Rep. Todd Tiahrt, R-Goddard, responded that the Tiahrt amendment law “explicitly ensures that no restrictions are imposed on the police’s ability to use the data for criminal investigations.”
