“Clearly, alleged members of terrorist organizations have been able to secure guns and weapons using the gun-show loophole.”

How clear?? An American Gun Show is the last place an Arab resembling person would show their face.

Any evidence to go along with your claim, John??

A little background on E. J. Montini.

A few years ago a hobo lit a campfire to keep warm in the hills near a Southern California city; the campfire got away from him, the ensuing brushfire destroyed many homes.

Montini called it “poetic justice”.

The RINO Party Alert.

Just say no to liberals, turncoats, and traitors!

We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended.
We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals of our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the party over to the so-called moderates wouldn't make any sense at all.
— President Ronald Wilson Reagan


NO! to on-demand abortion.
NO! to homosexual marriage.
NO! to amnesty for illegals.
NO! to gun control.
NO! to affirmative action.

NO! to more spending.
NO! to more taxes.
NO! to bailouts and pork.
NO! to carbon credits.
NO! to the Socialist agenda.

I am still confused as to why some conservatives thought McCain was worthy of their vote.

IMO McLAME (as our nominee) is a result of “reverse operation chaos”.

Nor will closing the loophole prevent criminals from getting weapons.

Then what is the point of his article if not to DENY law abiding citizens their 2nd Amendment rights?

Clearly, lunatics and wack-jobs have been able to marry into wealthy, politically connected families and get elected to the U. S. Senate using the “gigolo” loophole.

Border violence is a serious and complex problem. If elected officials are serious about combating it, they have to make some potentially unpopular political decisions.

No, it isn't.

Shut the border off. Deport illegal aliens. Enforce the law.

McInsane, LIEberman, Hillary, Barry, Holder, the Brady Bunch, et-al are all full of sheet.
  1. There is NO "Gun Show Loophole".
  2. What McInsane and LIEberman want is to STOP all sales of firearms between private parties - period. OR even leave them to your family in your will.
  3. They DO want every firearm transfer registered, logged and kept on a database: for future confiscation. (there, I said it!)
  4. The guns, GRENADES and ROCKETS the Drug Cartels are getting are NOT coming from any Gun Show in Bisbee AZ.
  5. Passing any 'Gun Show Loophole Law' won't change a dam thing as far as Drug Cartels and criminals are concerned.
    • Murder -- ILLEGAL
    • Kidnapping -- ILLEGAL
    • Drug Smuggling -- ILLEGAL
    • Gun Trafficking -- ILLEGAL
    • Possession of Full Auto Riles -- ILLEGAL(1)
    • Possession of GRENADES -- ILLEGAL
    • Possession of 'Rockets' -- ILLEGAL
    • Possession of almost any gun in Mexico -- ILLEGAL
    • Possession of a firearm by a felon -- ILLEGAL
So I don't know WHO these asshats think they are kidding. Any new law wouldn't affect them one little bit. But who it WOULD affect is the already law abiding gun owning US Citizen (and LEGAL Permanent Resident Alien). Who just happen to be mostly White, Middle Class, Patriotic, Christan, Male and Capitalists. The exact group that Barry and his minions want to financially ruin for 'fairness', and send off to reeducation camps.

(1) Except as currently allowed for a few and HIGHLY regulated

It’s a very weighty matter, isn’t it.
