While most in the media have harped the bipartisan compromise concerning universal background checks by manchin and toomey, little notice has been given to the fact that feinstein has reintroduced her assault weapon ban as amendments to the manchin/toomey bill.

To see the amendments, go to thomas.loc.gov at the url posted. Then go to 'amendments'. Next, click on each amendment (e.g.711), then 'text of amendment as submitted' to see text of the amendment.

While this is an amendment that still has to be voted on, little notice has been given to the awb being added as an amendment to the manchin/toomey bill. Please spread this information, as the pressure needs to be repeated that no further control measures are acceptable (even though boehner may have revealed that the fix was in - http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/04/11/Boehner-Hastert-Rule).

Well of course she does. She wouldn’t be doing her masters bidding if she didn’t. No surprise here. Can you order up a security detail whenever you feel the need? I can. Llama .38 super. Boo yah!

Did Feinswine pass the sixth grade yet?

Manchin/Toomey sounds simple, but has some real unintended consequences (actually probably intended). Now we start adding amedments and we will be doubly screwed.

We don’t have a gun problem. We have a criminal management problem. The 2A wasn’t written to be contingent on future crime statistics.

The pubbies should vote yes on it. That way the bill will be unpassable when voting on the full bill. There are too many dumbocrats (including Joe Manchin) who could not vote for an AWB without being unemployed the next time they are up for re-election.

No more laws, period.

Its not about safety, its about control.

Good strategy idea. Maybe they should have tried this with O'CommieCare.

opps... did search and it didn’t come up. thanks for the info.

Anyway, I think it’s important to spread the word to other firearm forums, so it doesn’t surprise anyone that feinstein is trying to do an end run around the legislative process.

This post is more concise, it’s not really a dupe.

Good for her. It ensures that the whole thing will go down in flames!

It shakes, rattles, makes all kind of funny noises but man does it shoot. Only problem is that it is so old that it’s hard to find additional mags for it. Me likey!

Kill it with FIRE!!!!

[Secret Agent Man]

if we’d simply take care of armed violent criminals the way we did not too long ago, we’d never have repeat offenders. was extremely cost effective as well. rope. tree. a bullet. little electricity.

[centurion316]

I was not complaining, just providing a link to the actual language of the amendments. The language matters, and what the press is reporting is somewhat different that what the actual amendments say.

[elcid1970]

Feinswine’s AWB will be the killer amendment & the senile commie doesn’t even realize it.

At least I hope so.

I’ll need to re-post the text as more amendments come in. Unlless someone beats me to it!
