Feinstein urges Americans to 'bite the bullet' on gun control

By KEVIN CIRILLI | 12/30/12 9:59 AM EST

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said on Sunday that America needs to "bite the bullet" on gun control reform in wake of the Dec. 14 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.

"America has to bite the bullet of what these incidents mean to our people, to our nation and our nation's standing in the world," Feinstein said on "Fox News Sunday." "When you have someone walking in and slaying in the most brutal way, 6-year-olds, something is really wrong."

Feinstein is set to introduce gun control legislation that would enact stricter background checks and gun registration laws in wake of the Sandy Hook shooting, in which authorities say Adam Lanza, 20, killed 20 children and six others at the elementary school.

Disarming law abiding people stops nutjob murderers, how, exactly?

Hey Dianne... Just as soon as you and every other politician, celebrity, and liberal establishes "gun free" zones around yourselves and your families. No more armed guards, snipers on the rooftops around the President, etc. If "gun free" is going to be good enough for America, well, lead by example.

So, as long as you and the other would be gun-grabbers (aka fascists) maintain armed guards, you can just STFU on gun control.

Diane needs to seriously sober up.....permanently.

She is waaaay off base with her actions on guns, IMO.

What a hypocrite!! Out of 7 CCW permits issued in San Fran, Diane, her husband & 2 bodyguards have 4 of the 7 permits!!!

>>Either the GOP rises to this challenge, or we find another party.<<

Damn! I'm so past that. After Bush's 2nd term, McCain and then Romney, I'm thinking a strong conservative TEA PARTY...Party.

Nationalist, Pro-God, constitutional conservative party.

Dems are desperate to make us think it’s about the GUNS, so we don’t notice it’s about the CRAPPY LEFTIST SCHOOL SYSTEM that produced the severely damaged Adam Lanza. Want a solution? Abolish the Dept of Education.

I saw that.

"Her hair like dung-stained hay;

"But she loved her Nazi coherts,

"Her fascist fellow travelers,

Why aren’t any Republican legislators calling the Gun Free School Zone Act a failure and submitting legislation that repeals it? Many school are armed already. Just do it.

Haven’t we been over this already? The GOP has no leaders and won’t fight.

>>Pro-American in trade also.<<

Absolutely. Run a platform that supports reevaluating and or renegotiating all our trade deals worldwide to ensure America's interest comes first and foremost.

Our products and our workers are second to none. Frankly, I'm a bit tired of all the cheap Chinese crap.

Hell, half this stuff looks and feels like dollar store quality. I mean seriously, how many damn sprinklers does a guy have to buy in a season?

Finally found a good quality American METAL sprinkler...top notch for a pittance more in price. Worth it's weight.

Hey, funny story. Went out to buy a new pair of boots. Drove down to the local western wear store (Cavenders) and 90% of all the boots had a made in China label.

So...I go out on facebook to Justin and Tony Lama sites and flame’em.

I wrote, “Something as unique as the American western boot make in China? Are you serious?”

So, in come the “likes” with comments in support of my position. Wasn't long before the marketing folks from both Justin and Tony Lama attempted to put a tourniquet on the bleeding.

We here at Justin/Tony Lama are proud of our quality...blah blah blah. Loved giving them the black eye.

Don’t you wish at least one Republican Senator had the guts to say that in rebuttal?

And draw attention to their own wrong doing? It's live and let live as long as they all get their cut

I think that we need a law that says anyone in Congress with at LEAST ONE characteristic of a “communist” needs to leave!

Very easy to say when you’ve got twenty-four hour protection up to and including US Marines.

Ever notice that with how much politicians like to talk about sacrifice, they never seem to be the ones making the sacrifices?

What ever happened in that case in Washington State, I think, where an anti-gun ex-prosecutor was killed in his home? There was some suspicion that he might have been killed because of his anti-gun stance and history.

The libs were soiling their undies thinking that perhaps the Second Civil War had started.
