Sandy Hook did what Fast and Furious was supposed to do.

All Muslims must turn in their weapons after the Fort Hood shootings. Yeah...right.

Excellent point that the Executive Branch does not have the power to legislate. When is Congress going to catch onto that little detail?

The law of the land is that bills originate in the House

Partially correct. Article 1 Section 7: "All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with amendments as on other Bills."

Revenue bills must originate in the House, but other bills, such as assault weapon ban bills, can originate in the Senate.

To pass ObamaCare, Dingy Harry used a House originated bill, and amended it by striking every single word and turning it into the Affordable Healthcare Act.

Be very careful about accepting emotionally based debates on gun control.
Everyone feels the tragedy of Newtown, but “feeling” is not always rational thought.

We must be very wary of the Lefts emotional ploys.
The # one thing they are playing this time is that it was innocent Children.
Lanza himself was only 17.

The next thing they are pulling is trying to pass legislation based on emotion that uses “Airy terminology”
What is an assault weapon? A rock could be or a machine gun could be.
There is no definition.
This allows them to shapeshift the argument and move the goal posts.

Similarly they are now bandying about the term “Military style feature”
What does that mean?
In 1776 a flintlock was a military style feature!!

“High Cap Magazine”
NY,CA,NJ,MA and some other defined High Cap as any thing over 10 rounds during the last ban.
Now NY passed a law based on Sandy Hook that defines it as 7 rounds.
Next time it will be 5 and the next 3, until they pass the “Barny Fife” law that says you may only have ONE BULLET which must not be in the gun and has to be registered with the local Sheriff.

Regards.

“Sandy Hook” did what “Fast & Furious” was supposed to do.”

- Great observation! I hadn’t thought of it that way before; but you’re right, it did! “Sandy Hook” has worked wonders for Obama. It got F&F off the news; it got “gun control” on the front burner, got “lawmakers” busy “making” more laws. - How did Hitler do it? He got shed of all the guns in Germany; except for HIS guns, that is.

We are in deep doo doo. Up is down. Good is bad. Sara Palin, Governor Palin, is demonized. The Tea Party is demonized. Rush is demonized. Allen West is demonized. - Occupy Wherever is praised to the skies; and you may be sure the “Occupy” people won’t have any problem getting gun permits. - The “demonized” ones will be labeled “mental cases” and a “threat”; and, voila! Sarah will be barred from any more moose hunting. Yessirree, boss!

Sorry, but the control freaks are out of luck. The future is NOW. I can PRINT a plastic gun, a plastic AR 30 Round Mag, and the way to do it is already spread around the world.

The Era of Gun Bans and Magazine Bans is OVER

You can’t stop this. This technology just assured freedom.

Actually according to US vs Miller in order for a firearm to be protected by the 2nd it must have a militarily useful purpose.

F&F is only out of the news if we allow it to be.

Holder is on the ropes.

I think they are ALL protected, but I get the gist of your point.

Fast and Furious and Ben Gahzi. BEcause we know how they try to curb our freedom of speech using AlQaeda’s terror attacks.

Let us face it, we have a terrorist pedophile president who will whore children as human shield while seducing them for votes.

Children will always need some armed responsible adult for protection. Children understand that they are at the mercy of adults, but our politicians who emotionally exploit the situation are very sinister cowardly beings, and not just Obama, but fatso coward Chris Cristy and the others.

We know in airliners to put the mask on ourselves first and then on the child, or that in case of human shield usage in attacks, that so long bullets fly, you cannot take care of children, the wounded etc.

These are hard facts, but our pedophiloid politicians will seduce children and then use them and abuse them and make them accept that cost. IT is obvious our leaders are evil people. It is obvious we have to do something about it ultimately, and it is not surrendering our guns, AND ESPECIALLY IN THOSE TERMS AND CIRCUMSTANCES EMPLOYED, that it is going to be solved, antiwar or prowar one may be. We need to put an end to pedophile politics and child seduction politicians, lest we turn like a Khmer Rouge nation.

Check it out America, your hour of reckoning is coming soon. Nukes are pointed at you from abroad and politicians here are using your children as excuses to use them as human shields, hiding behind skirts and kiddies, while avoiding bigger responsabilities against terrorists and what not.

This is the disgusting reality of socialism.
