Compromise:
When good “compromises” with evil you become tainted with evil.
“A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough.”
Gal 5:9
I think you should leave that judgement to conservatives, don’t you Mr. Toomey?
This is exactly what is wrong with the government trying to convince Americans to surrender their 2nd amendment protections. Currenly, federal law already requires States to send all necessary records on criminals, adding another segment of American society “violently mentally ill” as determined by whom?
Kind of like getting on the federal governments “no fly list” that included Americans who had never had any prior issues of any kind, but some smart-ass government stooge decided to place them on the no fly list!
This is why it is sooooooo dangerous to allow the government to collect this kind of information on Americans and letting them decide which American is competent and which American is not competent to possess a firearm.
With all the rhetoric about the tea party, if you have ever gave to a tea party or supported a conservative, would this be enough to get you on the governments “shall not possess a firearm list” simply being a conservative or supporting a political party. Joe the plumber was raked over the coals by liberal socialist working in the State of Ohio, using their computers to do background checks on him because he stood up to Obango!
What about a newspaper editor using the Freedom of Information Act to publish the Gun Confiscation/registration List? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm - - - ?
Pennsylvania Republican Sen. Pat Toomey on Wednesday called for an expansion of required background checks for those who want to buy guns by arguing that the proposal does not actually constitute gun control.
I dont consider criminal background checks to be gun control, Toomey said during a press conference at the Capitol. I think its commonsense. If you pass a criminal background check, you get to buy a gun. No problem. Its the people who fail a criminal or mental health background that we dont want to have a gun.
Toomey joined Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia on Wednesday in offering compromise legislation as Congress takes up gun bills. It requires background checks for all commercial transactions, including for those who buy firearms at gun shows and online.
Lying sack of dog crap...
And what is even more angering - the NRA will continue to endorse this traitor.
Compromise in politics and government is vastly overrated.
As Ayn Rand said:
In any compromise between good and evil, it is only evil that can profit.
Whenever republicans compromise with democrats the constitution takes another direct hit.
When republicans announce another compromise it is nothing more than one more loss to democrats cloaked in other terms to make it sound better and fool the foolish.
Every compromise is a loss for patriots and conservatives and a win for anti-constitutional Nanny Staters.
Democrats are happy to advance their agenda by chipping away a little at a time.
Like water eroding a rock - sooner or later they will gradually erode our culture and constitution until they are irretrievable lost.
Apparently, Pennsylvanians were correct about this guy the first time around. He really is an idiot.
RE: Sen. Toomey: I Dont Consider Criminal Background Checks To Be Gun Control
BTW, Background Checks are NOT the only thing in this gun control legislation under consideration.
He said ‘cred,’ not ‘creed.’
And reduce the NICS response time to 90 seconds. I mean Google can respond in thousandths of seconds. Credit card companies can too. Are government computers slower?
Either you’re ineligible or you’re eligible. That’s it.
Toomey needs to prove that they help. Take a look at the number of purchases v. denials v. prosecutable denials and you’ll see that NICS is a joke.
Nothing could be easier to prosecute than a felon attempting to purchase a firearm. You’ve got at least one witness, it’s on film, the perp filled out the paperwork - it’s an orgy of evidence.
That so few ever get prosecuted tells the entire story.
Criminals will get guns - they’re criminals.
Kindly find me the Federal prosecutor who would file those charges and righteously pursue such a case.
If this were real compromise, wed be seeing a benefit to gun owners. How about they get more background checks in exchange to nationwide concealed carry license reciprocity. That would be real compromise.
With his compromise, any doctor can put you on the list. Like the no-fly list, your screwed. Toomey is a tool and should go to h$ll. Munchie is cooked in 2014. Bye bye boys.
Dear Sen. Toomey,
I gave to get you in office and voted for you. I am done with you. Clearly, you cannot be a conservative and not understand the Constitution, nor have the sufficient intelligence to understand the implications of this issue. YOU are a RINO.
I will oppose you in the primary. Not vote for you in the general. Spit on your memory.
No Compromise, It’s as simple as that.
I made a mistake. Munch is up in 2018. I sure don’t like this POS.
BS!!!!
