Let him rant on so people will know him to be mad. In fact encourage it. Let him bury himself.

During the Clinton administration, the Democratically-controlled Congress used the precedent established by the National Firearms Act to ban the manufacture of new fully automatic weapons for private use.

The machine gun freeze was actually part of FOPA 1986, during Reagan's administration. Maybe he means the Feinstein ban on certain "military-looking" semi-automatics that passed in 1994.

It's encouraging to know that most Americans see the value of being armed as a preventative measure against terrorism. The downside is that we're so eager to pass 'protective' laws that may include gun control measures.

There's nothing in the homeland defense package about gun control, right?

Gun Group Says Second Amendment Foe Exploiting Tragedy

To call Blagojevich a foe of the second amendment is to sell him short. Not only is he a foe of the Second Amendment, he is an enemy of freedom, a facilitator of genocide, and a tyrant in waiting. He is the sort of filth who takes his cues from examples of Goebbels and Goering with their repetitive lies about Jews. It is Blagojevich's misfortune that he was born 50 years too late and in the wrong country.

Rep. Rod Blagojevich (D-Ill.) said in a press conference Sunday, Oct. 21, that .50 caliber sniper rifles are the "terrorist weapon of choice," and civilian ownership of the weapons should, therefore, be banned

Listen to the wise man...if the .50 caliber had been banned, 9/11 would never have happened.

This is a weapon that should never have been allowed for civilian use in the first place

I'm sure that the indian that Billy Dixon killed at the battle of Adobe Walls with his Sharps .50 at a distance of about a mile would also agree...
