More than 1,000 citizens descended upon the state Capitol on Monday to voice their often-emotional views in the wake of the shooting massacre last month at a Newtown elementary school that brought out national calls for gun control.
Some speakers called for a ban on military-style assault weapons and high-caliber magazines that allowed killer Adam Lanza of Newtown to shoot 20 children and six educators by firing at least 150 shots in a span of about six minutes.
The public hearing, focusing on gun-control bills offered by legislators, lasted more than 12 hours and went past 11:30 p.m. Monday.
Barbara Richardson of Sandy Hook, whose son attended the Sandy Hook Elementary School, said that cars and ladders are all regulated by the federal government in an attempt to keep the general public safe.

I didn’t see any reference to cars or ladders in the Constitution.

The marathon session just ended. I believe this must have set records.
A really good one?
I meant the hearings are theater.
The agenda is our disarmament. The agenda is treason.
Playboy?
Clear gutters being necessary to proper drainage beyond the house foundation, the right of the people to keep and bear ladders shall not be infringed.
What is even more amazing are the numbers who are talking on the phone, texting, doing make-up, changing clothes, or reading something while they are doing it!
While the grief for those who are victims will last a long time, this is being pumped mercilessly. I expect the usual suspects will milk the teats off this tragedy turned propaganda cow. The Communists among us have been salivating at the thought of such an opportunity and with DuhWon in office, they are pushing for all the insanity they can get through.
At the bottom of it all, they are after control and power because they know when people get a taste of their governing ideas they will not be able to retain power without foul play--and despite the patience and endurance of Americans, an armed populace will only take so much.
Not bad, but they'd regulate climbing them...
Better do a rewrite.

Conservatives and supporters of the 2nd amendment the Obama regime is using the 2nd amendment argument to blame gun owners for its inability to deal with the hundreds of gangland murders and shootings commited in areas under their solid control using illegally obtained firearms.
Obama’s solution to those inner city problems is to remove those rights provided by the constitution to have and bear arms from all US citizens before any search an seizure begins in those troublesome areas which by the way will never happen.
But none of those 23 so called “reforms” and unconstitutional efforts being edicted by who some call an emperor do not deal with the following issues briefly outlined below let alone insane shooters using stolen weapons. .
They won’t because instead of creating a uniformly democratic society where every citizen has an equal voice no matter what their race or ethnicity.
Obama’s policies have divided races and ethnic groups gerrymandering congressional districts where much of this criminal activity occurs.
GOPES {G-overment O-f (the) P-eople (republican party) E-lite-S} see this issue as a 3rd rail because most of it is black on black or illegal vs illegal (Mexican) activity .
GOPES are also afraid to say that policy also increased racial tension which has resited in deaths. But again GOPES accept this because of the influence of mainline socialist media which would be accusing them of “racism” if they dare to question it.
The purpose of all this hype on guns is to keep the right and conservatives focused on what the Demo-Coms describe as issues through their propaganda arm known as the MSM (mainline socialist media) not on the problems created by the “Libs” on their road of good intentions or the socialist/fascists/communists successors to comtrol over todays Democrat party;
Which is the cost ,waste, and corruption of this administration which had led to a 16 trillion dollar deficit.
Not one word addresses or offers a solution about the hundreds of gangland murders and shootings using illegaly obtained mostly handguns and revolvers .
Perpetuating the general populations ignorance and using code words like “assault rifles” they’re demonizing single shot per trigger pull semi automatic rifles, used for small game hunting or target practice. That are legal in every state but made to look like their military counterpart..
Military AR’s since Viet Nam and a DOD decision ARs are really medium caliber (22.3) machine guns designed to wound not necessarilly kill which is why they are automatic and fire as many rounds that are in its magazine once the trigger is kept in the pulled position.
They replace quick kill 30 caliber semi automatic (single shot) M-1, Springfield rifles and carbines used during WWII and Korea and approved in most states for use in big game hunting.

Obama certainly can’t critique a system created by his ilk .Ignored in his 23 edicts is that when once caught, perps get set free with lenient sentencing from “liberal” judges or sob sister plea bargain prosecution (which Obama supports for when a Illinois state senator while introducing legislation to sentence any 15 year old as an adult,(opps they could be fatherless) Obama voted “absent” with others on that roll call vote. But that leniency is promoted by the MSM,The New York Times CNN, NBC and,ABC. There’s certainly no criticism of “no snitch” mentality partcularly in areas where these shootings are rampant.
It would be nice at these rallys if conservatives would point these facts out to Obamas adoring public.
I figure their is a telephone tree of Democratic government workers/families that just take a long lunch break to make these “events” happen in D.C.
Daffynition,
They brought up
A) the fact that the case sealing was extended so we can’t know fully what happened?
And
B) so why pass more laws before we can know?
Excellent points, and they should be brought up at EVERY meeting!
Remember when history was like the Wright Brothers making their first flight? Or Alan Shepard going into space or Neil Armstrong walking on the moon? Look at the “history” we get these days. A bunch of political buffoons sitting around passing gas. America has become a ripoff.
DIFI said that collapsible stocks when fully collapsed make a rifle “full auto”If your aunt had wheels, she'd be a teacart.
And if a gun has a chromed stock that makes it an El Camino! LOL
Outdoor life,Guns and Ammo,Fur Fish Game were the high quality
There’s some controversy about a “bump-fire stock”...
My limited understanding is that is allows the recoil to move your finger to the point where the trigger is reset and the recovery from the recoil causes your finger to initiate a new trigger pull.
The firearm itself is still “one round per trigger pull”.
