Mark Kelly warns GOP against filibustering Senate gun legislation
The Hill ^ | 3/31/13 | Vicki Needham

Mark Kelly, the husband of former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (R-Ariz.), on Sunday warned GOP lawmakers not to filibuster efforts to pass gun control in the Senate.

"It is important to take action and the American people are demanding action now," said Kelly on “Fox News Sunday.”

Kelly’s comments came in response to five Senate Republicans — Sens. Marco Rubio (Fla.), Rand Paul (Ky.), Ted Cruz (Texas), Mike Lee (Utah) and James Inhofe (Okla.) – who said last week that they will filibuster any additional gun restrictions, as Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) prepares to move a gun bill.

Mark, just because you’re working for Elon Musk doesn’t mean anybody gives a sh!t about your comments.

“... former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (R-Ariz.), on Sunday warned GOP lawmakers not to filibuster efforts to pass gun control in the Senate.”

Gifford was not and is not a Republican.

"It is important to take action and the American people are demanding action now,"

They are taking action, they are defending the Constitution, just like you took an oath to... you douchebag.

I’d guess that he is warning them that they will succeed but watch out for the future! Seems like the normal Democatic spew to me.

One of these days, they will figure out that the country is not the Democratic creation that they assume. It’s called living within your own leftist bubble...just like the politicians do today.
