Speaking of bank heists, is Nadler aware that when the James Gang robbed a bank up here in Northfield, MN, it was regular folks with their own guns who happened to hear the ruckus and waylay the rascals? Did they only have four shots each? Probably not.

Is Nadler also proposing a law that criminals cannot act in teams of 2 or more?

That was the first thing I thought of. She shot him FIVE times, including in the face, and he still walked away! God I hate these goons who have small armies of private security presuming to pretend that they think “the little people” have no need of real, feasible self-defense. I wish someone would ask him how many rounds each of his security people carry.

What if the aggressor is an overweight POS?

Damn I wish just one Republican had the cojones ro bring that up on the floor of Congress-something like “Why would you dis-arm law-abiding American citizens but arm drug cartels in Mexico”

Two shots might be enough, or maybe four, or maybe four more. It never happens like you imagine it. The imagined rapist turns out to be a gang of rapists. How many shots do you need then? Six is a good round number, fills most cylinders on most revolvers, but sometimes there are seven or eight thugs hanging out where you must walk. Figure that the products of leftist culture, drug addicts, gang bangers, hip hopping thugs, union thugs, Democrats are often so crazed one bullet won’t work, and where two are needed, three are better, so the magazine that holds the most is the best.

We have some deep forests around us - with three large packs of coyote/wolf hybrids. A couple years ago a hunter killed one that weighed in at 90 lbs. None of us lose sight of our homes unless we’re carrying a scary black rifle with several mags.

“But let me say, yes,” Nadler added. “One of the definitions of a nation state is that the state has a monopoly on legitimate violence. And the state ought to have a monopoly on legitimate violence.”

“Well, actually... “Did New York State Just Accidentally Outlaw ALL Firearms?””

Don't think it is accidental. I haven't clicked on your link yet, but I did read the whole law and there isn't a gun that will stand up to that law. The guns that people already have are going to be registered and if you have more than seven cartridges in say, a 10 magazine, you are a criminal right now so take out three cartridges. Totally ridiculous.

This nutsy Representative should never have a guard unless that guard has less than 8 cartridges but this guy says 2, 3, or 4 is enough. We have idiots for some leaders.

Well, let's see. FBI standard for minimum penetration of projectiles is 13".

This is needed because not every shot hits directly in front or back of the body, and you may hit an arm on the target's side. Thus, the bullet must be able to penetrate 13" of flesh and bone to reach vital organs and blood vessels.

Knowing that, I don't think there is anything in a pistol caliber, or even many small- and medium-caliber rifle cartridges, that would be approved for use on a Nadler.

Nadlers comments are proof positive that term limits should be mandatory. Howabout 2 shots at the job Nadler and then you have to back to working for a living!

If Rep. Waddler gets his way, all you have to do to commit a crime is bring five partners.

The “or” in that sentence of law at your link means there is something following that is also unlawful and that is (12), fails to register a gun the person already has. So, the person becomes a criminal if he/she doesn't register the gun he/she has now. The person is on a slippery slide to being a criminal if he/she doesn't register EVERY gun he/she has.

I think if that governor was in Texas we would bury him head down (should he die of natural causes of course) cause there is nothing in his head. He has probably never been to Texas to see freedom/liberty/gun carrying at work. And, you can buy as big a drink as you want and eat a triple decker cheese/hamburger/French fries/onion rings, at the same time. And, we sell heartburn medicine including Pepto Bismal in every drug store and grocery store. And, we have great hospitals for by-pass heart surgery and new hearts if you need that.

Come down to Texas and have a life - get out of that hell hole up there.

Dear idiot Nadler,
No one ever wants to use a gun to protect their life or the lives of those around them.

If you have to use a gun to protect life there are very few rules but one must follow them to survive.

#1. Shoot First

#2 Shoot Most

#3 Shoot Best

#4 Survive

Who in the he11 do you think you are to be telling everyone what the limitations are in protecting their lives???

What an arrogant a$$ you really are. Have you ever been in a situation where you had to pull a trigger to defend your life or a loved ones life??

Arrogant POS who just knows it all..... And by the way My rights are granted to me by the constitution and what you think doesn't count at all.

“Wow, excellent point. I think I must be gettin old now, I am not aware as I should be of all these new vices people are into it would seem.”

No, Chris, you must have a life, and I don't, that's why I know all this stuff. I have the news on all day and switch from Fox to CNN, and the weather channel, and I read news on my laptop computer.

I heard the first report about that school shooting when they didn't know what happened. I followed that all that day and the next day.

I've read about every bath salt zombie that has happened. Oh, I forget to tell you, they are all nude. I think the bath salt chemical makes their skin sensitive to anything touching it, so they take off their clothes. More of these have happened in Florida than any other state.

I hope you have a good life going, and I'll bet you do.

Ah I am in Florida too. I shall have to keep an eye out for these naked zombies.

Worst things I have encountered around here so far were some unattended pit bulls while walking my dog, they got the pepper spray, and some pigmy rattle snakes under the tree in the garden. They got the shovel.

Far as my life goes, I just try to maintain simplicity, peace of mind and freedom. So far so good, but the news of late has me greatly concerned I must say.

Take care, Marcella, and God Bless.

“What a brain dead stupid statement. We just read about the lady that emptied her revolver on an intruder, and he was still able to run away.”

I have two revolvers - one upstairs and one downstairs - one revolver is not many cartridges - that is why I just bought a semiautomatic rifle with a 25 cartridge magazine and 150 hollow point cartridges for it. AND IT'S PINK!

I agree about the new “law”.. and it wasn’t from me, I am in Japan, BUT I am also from Texas.. (Also, wasn’t my thread, but it was posted just a short time after yours was posted.)

We see both 1984 AND Atlas Shrugged becoming reality; the question is, what will happen, and what are (as Americans) going to do about it.. it’s not pretty any way we can look at it :/
