Hmm...I was just thinking...
« on: January 06, 2010, 07:51:05 AM »
While I was elated to learn this morning that Chris Dodd will not be running this November, it occurred to me that with these Democratic resignations may come another tsunami of legislation including massive gun control measures.  I'm no politico, but common sense tells me that we may see another AWB attempt before they lose their control of the Senate and possibly the House in November.  So What Say You?  Oh by the way, The Second Amendment March is still on for April 19 in DC.  Check your State for your March Date.

Right on the money - this way they have nothing to lose, they already have their full salary as their retirement income, plus completely paid for (thank you again taxpayers) medical care - and not the crap they are shoving down our throats either, this will be good, high quality care. And maybe - for the good soldiers - a job on a Federal commission somewhere (more tax dollars) or an ambassadorship. In addition to  the "retirement" income.  >:(

So like MB said a week ago - nothing to lose, go all out for the whole game, wreak as much damage as you can before you leave.

The democrats "scorched earth" policy is alive and well
"If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge nor jury. Therefore what he must be taught to fear is his victim." - Jeff Cooper
Pericles--"Freedom is only for those who have the guts to defend it".

The problem with society today is that not enough of us drink wine from our enemies skulls”.

It takes 43 muscles to frown, 17 to smile, and 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars!!!
-Sheriff Jim Wilson

Es gibt keine Notwendigkeit zu befürchten, Underdog hier ist.
Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Where are we now??????

There, that sounds much better.

"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Lots of people had that "OH SH!T" thought about the same time.  The next year is going to be INTERESTING.

Ram & Cram Legislation is not over... Keep stocking up.

Any weasel method will be attempted, buried in another "bill for the children", or just flat out rammed through. Damn the Constitutionality, (reference healthcare)...

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence
-----------------------------

The Brady Campaign certainly isn't giving up.  Here's an excerpt from their latest missive.


Quote
ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT: HELP US REACH 100 COSPONSORS TO CLOSE THE GUN SHOW LOOPHOLE.

Dear xxxxxxxxxx,

We are close to our goal of 100 cosponsors on H.R. 2324 by January 18, Martin Luther King Day.  We have just 16 cosponsors to go in less than two weeks!  But we need your immediate help.

Your U.S. Representative has not yet cosponsored H.R. 2324 to close the gun show loophole.  Please contact your Representative today to cosponsor this life-saving legislation.  Even if you have previously emailed your Representative to cosponsor, please do so again.


Will work for ammo

Gun control may well become a significant part of the health bill.  Guns can be hazardous.  Govt. has the authority to limit hazards (emmissions, transfats, etc.).  Therefore, govt. can/will limit guns/ammo under the pretext of making us all safer.  Makes me feel all fuzzy and warm inside.  Crap!

I mourn for my country. :'(
“I’ve lived the literal meaning of the ‘land of the free’ and ‘home of the brave.’ It’s not corny for me. I feel it in my heart. I feel it in my chest. Even at a ball game, when someone talks during the anthem or doesn’t take off his hat, it pisses me off. I’m not one to be quiet about it, either.”  Chris Kyle
