Now they have to fumble around for a new candidate, while the Republican skates to victory. Did the Russians do this, too?
For starters, we should require politicians to call these firearms “semi-automatic rifles.”
Watertown NY? They got wolverines running around the woods. Its gun country, all the way from .177 to 8”. Oh yeah, she’d be a real winner up there, not. Watertown NY, “The town of the Future”. Gotta see how the MSM reports this one. Calling MSM damage control.
The public has no clue the police in almost every city have full auto military weapons. They have .50 cal rifles. They have short barrel shotguns,suppressors and flash bang grenades. They dress in full military gear with body armor and military helmets. They train in military tactics and we wonder why the police are shooting people and acting like an occupying force every time there is any excuse to do so. Why? The left cries assault rifles are only good for killing as many people as possible. Well when do we need or want the police to do that? What law enforcement function is met by an M4A1 full auto military carbine?
The public needs to know they are being lied to about guns. The left wants gun control but only for you, not for government. That's so they can shoot you and you can't shoot back. Quit sugar coating what is going on.

It was non-dramatic, but this questioning in this video occurred a bit over a year ago, IIRC.
In her questioning, she established that the FBI had a “practice” of notifying Congress of ongoing investigations on a quarterly basis; and that Comey had said that in his kind of boy scout fashion. So, here they are spring 2017 and the FBI investigation which had been going on for basically nine months, there had been no Cong notification. It was really one of the very first times Comey was caught in a lie (or at minimum a piece of serious awkwardness) which of course resulted in utterly nothing. It also showed Comey’s particular style of letting the classified nature of certain things cover up or justify lies on a more general, non-classified level. Hers was the first or among the first times when the questioning got much better than the Darrell Issa disconnected lack-of-attention-span goofball mode of asking “So you DID like turnips?” “Well, then where were you last Thursday”?
That process is well underway and the dynamics are explained in “The Bell Curve.” And there is nothing that can be done to stop the process as far as I can see.
Idiocracy, indeed.
“What law enforcement function is met by an M4A1 full auto military carbine?”
Firefight with gangsters who are using the same?
Ya except thats pure fantasy. Criminals dont have military weapons. Full auto weopons used in crime are extremely rare. So rare as to not be a factor. Yet even if there were crimes with full auto law enforcement would never be an appropriate use.
“Ya except thats pure fantasy. Criminals dont have military weapons.”
Cartels and powerful gangs do.
“Yet even if there were crimes with full auto law enforcement would never be an appropriate use.”
So, if gangsters are armed with AKs, you’re going to send cops out to face them with .38 specials?
I'm tired of seeing any excuse for bringing out dozens of police armed with military weapons that are clearly trying to impersonate delta force operatives. That is a standing army, they are behaving that way and it's a clear violation of our Constitution. The United States is not a police state. Our communities and neighborhoods are not battlefields.
