When it comes to denying a certain group of Americans a constitutional right, there are few examples as egregious as the infringement upon the Second Amendment rights of adults aged 18 to 20 years old. While considering them adults in every other way, the government apparently considers them second-class citizens, banning them from purchasing certain guns because of the size of those firearms—namely handguns.

Now, lawmakers in Oklahoma are set to do something about this infringement. A measure that would lower the age to purchase a handgun in the state was passed by the State Powers Committee on Thursday by a 6-to-1 vote along partisan lines.

Unlike many pieces of legislation Senate Bill 1218 is just one page long, straightforward and simple in nature. The measure, by Republican state Sen. David Bullard, states: “No person eighteen (18) years or older within this state shall be denied the purchase of a firearm based on his or her age unless otherwise prohibited by state law.”
