During the Senate Judiciary meeting today to markup a potpourri of bills designed to deny the American people their rights under the Second Amendment and disarm them, Senator Dianne Feinstein opposed an amendment to her so-called assault weapons ban legislation that would allow veterans to continue buying firearms the bill would outlaw.
Feinstein basically said all veterans have PTSD and should have their Second Amendment stripped. In response to the amendment, she said the following:
…this adds an exemption of retired military. As I understand our bill, no issue has arose in this regard during the 10 years the expired ban was effect… and what we did in the other bill was exempt possession by the United States or a department or agency of the United States… that included active military. The problem with expanding this is that you know with the advent of PTSD, which I think is a new phenomenon as a product of the Iraq War, it’s not clear how the seller or transferrer of a firearm covered by this bill would verify that an individual was a member, or a veteran, and that there was no impairment of that individual with respect to having a weapon like this. So you know I would be happy to sit down with you again and see if we could work something out but I think we have to — if you’re going to do this, find a way that veterans who are incapacitated for one reason or another mentally don’t have access to this kind of weapon.

Looney Tooney Feinstien.....that’s all folks! An over the top psycho with a microphone who packs for her safety so she must suffer from a mental disorder like paranoia or narcissism. Somebody disarm this nut before she hurts a Vet.
They should be prohibited to breath the same air as the rest of us.
You can't fix retarded.
“The problem with expanding this is that you know with the advent of PTSD, which I think is a new phenomenon as a product of the Iraq War.”
Absolute B/S.... another damn LIE.
PTSD has been around forever. During previous wars it was called “shell-shock”.
Having PTSD does not mean that you are crazy or necessarily a danger to yourself or others.
This is on the same level as Minneapolis libs saying that anyone with a military background should not be allowed to participate in the political process.
This line was from the Colleen Rowley campaign against Congressman John Kline (R-MN) (the campaign that photoshopped a picture of the congressman cahnging his Marine dress blues to a Nazi SS uniform).
No, she should not be classified as stupid.
She knows exactly what she’s doing, and it’s not in our best interest.
Quit thinking of these anti-Americans as stupid. Some are, but most are simply following a specific agenda.
Mentally ill? Hello kettle! Of course you would have to have some mental capacity to be mentally ill so I guess you could give her a pass in that case. Nah! No pass. You are of course correct. It used to be called shell shock. Nothing new here. Some cope better than others. Some can’t cope at all. Supposing it’s because there is NO normal. Everybody is different without categorization. People is people. How dull life would be (will be) once they get us in line. LOL! (No, not maniacal laughter either!)
Isn’t there some old timey saying in Texas that might apply to poor deluded Ms. Finestein - usually applied to bad men, but she just might qualify.
I know what it is, but won’t post it here. Don’t want to get myself in trouble, nor give anyone ideas.
It starts with “some men just need.....
You wicked wicked wench
Her comments are an Act of War. She should be removed from office.
PTSD started with the Iraq war? Tell that to my uncle. Oh, you can’t, because he killed himself a few years after WW2.
I’m looking forward to the day I see Feinstein doing the perp walk for violating the civil rights of Americans. Especially American veterans. She needs to spend a little time in the Iron Bar Hotel. Maybe that’ll help her get her head right.
So did my uncle, who was second wave to hit the beach at Iwo Jima.
He was only 17 years old, and never recovered. But he only killed himself, not anyone else.
Careful what you wish for DiFi, it may have unintended consequences.
On behalf of my Grandfather, my Father, my 3 Brothers, my Husband, my Son and all the wonderful young men that my son grew up with that served as well as many personal friends, I would like to say 2 words to Diane, one is a VERB the other is a PRONOUN.
The only upside is yet another dimwit shows the utter disdain they have for our Hero’s. Diane has just joined the ranks of murtha, kerry and durbin and is not worthy to shine our Vet’s boots.
This feinstein subhuman should arrested and tried for undermining the Constitution. What a freak...
+1 :-)
I know what I would like to say about this slut, but, I am going to hold my words.
Feinstein, evil souls like yours only end up in one place. You are Satan’s consort.
You don’t deserve the protection of these brave men or the Liberties you have because of their courage and devotion to this country.
You are the true representative of evil on earth.
“This is not going to end well... maybe she’s just trying to motivate us?”
It would have been so simple if she had just been in Moscone’s office when Dan White paid his “social call.”
