RIP Mr. Brady.
People who exploit their injured and infirm loved ones are the lowest of the low.
Where's that sleezy astronut, surely he can use this opportunity for personal gain.
Dems treat graves as if they are dance floors.
Now the liberals will still continue using him as a prop. He is now will be voting Democrat (which he may have already) and they will prop him up like weekends at Bernie for hearings. Liberals have no morals when it comes to the dead.
Reagan signed one of the worst pieces of gun control legislation ever. The misnamed “Firearm Owners’ Protection Act of 1986.” No new select fire weapons were permitted in civilian hands. Some of the other provisions of the Act were OK, but that one was unconstitutional on its face.
Brady became a force for evil and did the country a great disservice.
Mortimer Snerd died, no big deal.
He has such a collection?
That is what is always seemed like to me:
A convenient prop to be wheeled out when needed and then put away.
Poor Gabby Giffords is being used the same way.
Has to suck realizing you are no more than a Howdy Doody doll for some manipulative hack.
And it’s the reason I don’t own a full auto.
His liberal wife used him as a puppet.
I’m with you. James Brady or Gabby Giffords, the brain in each case is not functioning clearly enough to hold them accountable. The real culprits are the activists who exploit public sympathy for them to push their agendas.
Brady allowed himself to be used as a grinning tool by the gun-haters. I have no respect for him and his shrew of a wife.
He had that type of collection?

You obviously were not old enough to own a hadgun before this was passed. If so, you would remember back then that we had to fill out forms just to buy handgun ammunition. Right in the forms for an FFL, we had to agree to waive our 4th amendment rights for any place we owned, partially owned, leased, rented, or borrowed. The BATF could show up as many times as they wanted and whenever they wanted to search an FFL’s belongings. Etc, Etc, Etc. There were a lot of other problems that I have not mentioned which were addressed with Reagan’s bill.
Before and after that, I have only seen ONE occasion when gun controls were relaxed. That was when the Brady bill expired. Keep in mind that the Gun Control Act has been in place nearly 50 years. When it passed, I remember a lot of gunowners saying that we would toss out all the b*st*rds at the next election and repeal the law. Instead, we have only won (narrowly) twice in all that time and you would have thrown one of them away.
The fully automatic amendment was put into place at the last minute as a “poison pill” to kill the bill. It failed.
You are right about that, Revelation 911
The Democrat Party’s favorite vegetable.
Good riddance.
Liberals could teach Hamas a thing or two about human shields.
One less figurehead for gun control.
Ronaldus Magnus shrugged off being shot.
Jim Brady cried and moaned, “what a little victim am I!”
Do you have a source for Brady owning machine guns, please? I couldn't find anything in a Google search.
Brady was one of those that was never a Reagan Republican. He was a RINO if there ever was one, and long before he was shot.
