Pelosi told me. "Our members are very courageous. They’ll walk the plank on any tough vote...

So, Pelosi, which red state democrats are going to throw away their house seats to get gun control passed? Or are there any left after you made them "walk the plank" on Obamacare?

The notion that more Americans, quote unquote, in the words of Governor Perry ‘packing heat’ will make us safer is not founded in reality, facts, or history.

That's just factually false. He should read More Guns, Less Crime by John Lott. Sure, people should have to train regularly to be allowed to "pack" outside their homes. But what else a gun, in the hands of a "good guy," has much of a CHANCE(*) of stopping a "bad guy" who's killing people? (Don't say "gun laws" because these guns were legal EVEN in CT and were stolen from the person who bought them legally.)

*-- Of course, having a "good guy" with a gun is no guarantee of stopping a sicko bent on using deadly force. For example, if the sicko were wearing a suicide vest with a deadman switch. But it's statistically the best chance.

five Republicans who had voted for the "assault weapons ban" in 2004 (Judd Gregg, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, George Voinovich, and Dick Lugar)

LoL! That "esteemed" group have taken a beating since 2004, I think Susan Collins is the only one left in the new Senate.

Somehow the term ‘gun safety’ from the mouth of Her Highness Pelosi is just somewhat indescribably odd.

This thread has just added to the FreeRepublic "bang list" (firearms interest list) by adding the keyword "banglist".

Any time a firearms-related thread is created on FreeRepublic, please be sure to add the "banglist" keyword to it so that interested FReepers don't miss it. Just a suggestion.

Just realized:

Why can’t anti-gun advocates argue their side without denigrating me as a person?

Usually I argue my side with facts and history. They tend to begin their debate by calling me a testosterone-fueled animal or something.
