Yes, it would be... so Congress should leave the laws as is.

No, congress should start talks on repeal of the GCA and NFA.

What’s ‘Unimaginable’ is that after we had Obama in action for 4 years, our own party threw the election so we could get stuck with Obama for another 4 years.

What's worse is realizing that had the throw failed we'd be stuck with ObamaClone for another 4 years (or maybe 8!).

Surveys, and the gun buying frenzy say Obama is lyin’.

Nothing new.

Since president Urkle said that I’m going to buy a new pistol and maybe a shotgun this weekend. And more ammo. If he only knew...he’d probably ban weekends!

The GOP is letting the other side define the narrative.

If they don’t stop it, and soon, the 2nd is gone.

Absolutely... even better!

So why did we get THAT shoved down our throats?

They could not have implemented it if the GOPe in the house had defunded it, instead they are busy today trying to fund the provision that would pay for preexisting illness.

“The notion that Congress would defy the overwhelming instinct of the American people after what we saw happen in Newtown I think is unimaginable,”

Stop believing your own talking point. It's not true

FUBO

I actually agree that it is unimaginable -just like a crack whore wouldn't turn down $10, a Member of Congress won't risk losing the best job he or she will ever have, certainly not over a trifle like the Constitution.

So - what does it mean that gun control doesn't have the votes?

It means they're lying about the polls.
