During Friday’s marathon gun control hearing in the Colorado Senate, Republican Sen. Kent Lambert offered an amendment to exempt active military members, veterans and their families from the gun magazine ban.

Enter Sen. Mary Hodge, a disgraceful Dem who urged fellow lawmakers to oppose the exemption because “some of them come back with significant mental health problems.” …

Some people might commit crimes; therefore, the state has no choice but to punish everyone.

Stalin would have make perfect sense of such thinking.

Send this thing an e-mail demanding that she support a bill that will subject all legislators to pass a background investigation before qualifying for public office, in order to weed out those too crazy to govern. How many Hodges would we then see?

Her e-mail address: mary.hodge.senate@state.co.us

The Stalinists don’t want anyone with actual training, standing in the way of their totalitarian takeover.

Here’s the e-mail I sent to the deranged Colorado Senate Dems:

The Mother in Georgia, protecting her children, hit her attacker with 5 out of 6 shots, and he still was able to walk and drive away.

What if there had been 2 or more attackers?

It is NOT your job to determine how many rounds of ammunition is “enough”!

It is NOT your job to determine whether I can receive a firearm from a family member.

As family members, we know who will be responsible and who may not be, which is perspective NO government program can legislate.

The Senator who claimed to have “statistics” suggesting women are better off not being armed, when attacked, is either a liar or a fool.
But, it’s nice to have such useful idiots around, to show the desperation of the anti-Second Amendment crowd.

The Second Amendment was not drafted for hunting, or simply self defense from a criminal attacker.

The Second Amendment was put into place to guarantee the rights of the individual to be equally armed as military,
both foreign and domestic, in the event that the citizenry might have to fight their own government.

The Second Amendment is about making sure the population would not be controlled, dominated or oppressed by a government.

Which now means we have the right to own weaponized drones.

No liberal should be allowed to serve in public office; all are mentally ill.

That’s for sure-it is a double edged hazard-not only does the sponge cake go directly to the hips-the creme filling in sufficient quantity apparently can cause brain damage...

I’m hoping one of the natwebsites,and talkshows assigns a staffer to gather all the idiodic statements comming out of these Colorado anti-constitution anti-self protection demo-com legislators and puts them into sundry formats, sound,video,and print. Giving them the widest circulation possible. Not only in Colorado but throughout the US.

The legislator in question sorta looks like a typical member of a liberal church denomination.

I asked a State Rep to file a bill to deny all law enforcement officers, Federal, State, and Local any weapon that is denied to the people of NH, just to piss of the liberals.

He is having some health problems but he thought it might be fun.

No ‘progressives’ should be allowed to run for office; many are mentally ill.

Oregon is not all liberals! Located in the small Oregon community of Cornelius, west of Portland and in the Tualatin Valley is the location of Senator Feinstein's worst dream. A company that manufactures weapons with a magazine capacity of 100 rounds!

The day is soon approaching my fellow Americans when the American people will demand legislation to be passed that will require every law maker take a full mental and physical examine BEFORE he or she can run for public office in this Country both State of Federal!

We need laws term limiting all public officials.

We need laws in place that state any public official who drafts a law that is repugnant to the State and Federal constitutions respectfully, they will be charged with a felony and immediately removed from office!

We need laws that demand any public official who holds a public office purchase a 100 million dollar bond in order to hold that public office. This will protect every American who may be harmed by any legislation that is deemed unconstitutional. Because a public official is a “liberal socialist” they will be a higher risk of violating the limitations in our Constitution and will need to provide double the amount of bond to 200 million dollar liability insurance!

We need legislation that requires every public official to meet with his or her constituency at 20 public meetings prior to any legislation being considered.

We need legislation requiring any proposed Senate or House bills be posted at least 90 days on-line and be made available to the public at large BEFORE the bill(s) can be considered for adoption.

This should keep all public officials busy so they are not sitting around dreaming up legislation that curtails Americans their natural rights and reminds these public officials they work for US, we are NOT their subjects!!!!

It has always been about handguns. Assault rifles are just a decoy to try and get their anti-gun foot in the door.

Once they get a ban on AWs then they will use the same reasons to go after handguns.

John Kennedy killed with a 5 shot bolt action rifle.

Charles Whitman, killed 14, wounded 32 others mostly with a bolt action 6mm hunting rifle. Also used a shotgun and an m1 carbine.

Medgar Evers, shot with a 5 shot 1917 bolt action Enfield rifle.

Martin Luther King, shot with a 4 shot Remington 760 pump action Gamemaster rifle.

Bobby Kennedy with a .22 Iver Johnson Cadet revolver.

George Wallace wounded with a 5 shot Charter Arms .38spl revolver.

Howard Johnsons shooter killed nine, wounded thirteen with a 4 shot RUGER .44 mag Deerslayer rifle.

Gerald Ford attacked with a 7 shot 1911 semi auto.

Edmond OK post office with two National Guard 7 shot 1911 pistols.

Ronald Reagan and Jim Brady with an RG-14 .22 revolver.

What do they all have in common? NONE over 7 rounds, yet after each one came a cry of panic to ban all of them.

No elected official regardless of party designation shall be allowed to vote on any proposal, before the body to which they have been elected, because they may be suffering from grandiosity of purpose.

I support the individual rights of gun owners and "dope heads." How about you?
