So, as of now, we have no protection from liability for gunmakers, and a renewal of the assault weapons bill.

Looks like the Democrats just handed us our a**es..

As far as I know the AWB sunsets in September unless it is renewed. They will have to attach it to another bill and force another vote now.

I think you're incorrect there NL.

The extension was added as an amendment to the Gun Liability bill, and the entire bill was defeated.

Ergo, no AWB extension.

No. The AWB is a part of the liability bill, which was defeated. We go back to status quo.

[ArrogantBustard]

Actually, it looks like we have nothing Ugly Gun Ban extension was an amendment to the liability protection bill. Both are dead.

I want to know who were the 8 commie-rat-bastards who voted for the final, amended bill?

Okay, I'm confused. Help the cubicly challenged here, please. Didn't the Feinstein AWB extension get shot down as well?

How do you conclude this?

You must be laboring under the delusion that these lawsuits have been effective against manufacturers. They haven't. RATS just delayed making it almost impossible but have not "won" anything. Two more RAT Senator losses and the amendments will not pass. Fitzdumbass will not return from Il. so his replacement could be more reliable on this issue.

There may be some hope for the liability bill (clean version). The House could pass it, and then tack it onto some omnibus package later in the year and let the Dems try to strip it out of the Senate version.

It ain't over till it's over.
