I don't think that the Blue Dog Dems will vote for this. They know that if they do, the R's will take over again in 2008.
These people are doing their damndest to precipitate a civil war in this country, aren't they?
After they thoroughly decimate the civilian firearm market with bans like this they'll get greedier and scheme up elaborate registration schemes that lead to eventual attempts at confiscation in gradual increments. For now though I plan on buying much more ammunition before they target that as well. If I can't buy another "assault weapon" I'm going to make sure I can keeping shooting what I have.
"There is no 10-year sunset clause on this one."Then what is Section 2 referring to?
The title of Section 2 mentions 10 years, but no part of the bill actually enacts or restores any sunset provision. Titles do not have legislative weight.
Bait and switch. You fell for the bait. The switch is failing to enact a sunset provision.
The lest knolwdgabe people are writing the legislation while advised by most left of left wingers. The lefties know how effective a handful of people armed with M1's can be. Its not "just an M-1".
Thats right sport no sunset means once passed its there for good, cause even if the gop gets it's feces coagulated they lack the spine & the faith in you the AMERICAN CITIZEN to own a rifle or other firearm that is of modern design.
It is a semi-automatic rifle that was used by the military so there is absolutely no way that the public can be trusted with one . The politicians view of you is that you can't be trusted to complete toilet training.
Because they go bang,they are of modern design & the politicians view you as being to stupid to complete toilet training without govt. supervision.
The members of both parties view themselves as your overlords & masters & make no mistake they are willing to send federal LEO's to make ccertain you understand that.
Oh Yeah this shit again . You were expecting folks that have as an article of profound religious belief set in theological concrete that you are to stupid to complete toilet training & that they are your lord & master would do anything different ?
I bought my first ak literally after watching Slick Willy being sworn in for the first time.
It made me think that they and their Democrat masters such as Janet "Bar-Be-Que" Reno were setting a stage for a nationwide gun grab while using these criminals to do their killing for them.

What next? Those loonies have the longest list of ways to spend the tax money than anyone sane and logical can keep up with.
It's not even two months into the new year, and I'm already sick to death of the whinin' and pulin' Rats.
Does anyone else think Rudy's head looks like a skull even while he's alive?
1- Tell people they can keep what they already own.
2- After the next news shooting, tell people they have to be registered to help solve crimes but they can still keep them.
3- Now that they know where they are, tell people we're sorry, but they must be turned in for the safety of America.
The gun grabbers know that we won't register them all or turn them all in, but after step 3, we won't be able to buy ammo for them or take them out of hiding without risking felony arrest. At that stage, when there is nothing left to lose, might as well use them if someone knocks on the door because you're going to prison one way or the other. Also, at that stage, might as well have a machinegun also. The gun grabbers never think about unintended consequences.
Yes. You really, really need to study what happened in Finland for five months of 1918, how it happened, and why.
And, most particularly, what the result was.
The civil war was a catastrophe for Finland. In only a few months, about 30,000 Finns perished, less than a quarter of them on the battlefield, the rest in summary executions and in detention camps. These deaths amounted to about 1 percent of the total population of Finland. By comparison, the bloodiest war in the history of the United States, the Civil War, cost the lives of about 2 percent of the population, but that loss was spread out over four years.

*more* kansalaissota/ vapaussota, 1918
CWII Ping....
It happens every time new gun control is introduced. I starting to believe someone is financing these morons.
I had a slightly different comparison in mind....
[now think about consiglieri Tom Hagen, from The Godfather movie....]
