***I have a Lady Smith revolver..... They will prolly come after them next.***

John Kennedy killed with a 5 shot bolt action rifle.

Bobby Kennedy with a .22 Iver Johnson Cadet revolver.

George Wallace wounded with a 5 shot Charter Arms .38spl.

Gerald Ford attacked with a 7 shot 1911 semi auto.

Edmond OK post office with two National Guard 7 shot 1911 pistols.

Ronald Reagan and Jim Brady with an RG-14 .22 pistol.

What do they all have in common? NONE over 7 rounds.

Do they really expect us to believe this is about limiting magazines to 10 rounds? It is the foot in the gun control door, something they have been salivating for the last 60 years.

it is NOT about dead innocents...

Correct.

Today, 2708 innocents were murdered by lib Dems in America. What? You didn't see that on the news? Neither did I.

Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D- Calif., said the GOP leadership should put a bill on the floor by Friday that would limit the size of gun magazines to 10 rounds.

Sorry, Nazi Pelosi, but the Republicans went home for Christmas.
That's a Christian holiday.

I have one of those, too, just in case.

I don’t recall anyone shooting up schools when I was in elementary or high school.

Me neither, but I do recall my Dad writing a check and the postman bringing the shotgun I took my first whitetail with. No 4473, no FFL involved (pre-68 GCA).

We have lost a lot of freedom over the years.

Makes me think this issue is losing momentum and they know it.

It is. The emotional peak has passed, and the saturation campaign not only doesn't resonate, it reaches the point where it turns people off. Even with emotional issues, the law of diminishing returns applies, and enough of us have put forth the idea that only arming those in the area who would defend the children is effective--definitely not DISarming anyone who would otherwise be able to stop such a slaughter.

So, the moment is passing in which people can be relied on to be emotional enough to push for the irrational, and the Dems Communists have to push for this now.

" There is no way that this can happen without RINO defectors. Go ahead and "target" yourselves, RINOs. ""

Yes, and that's what they're counting on. Particularly liberal RINO Republicans from New England, breaking ranks.

The NRA’s president is in the middle of a great speech right now. He’s calling for armed security at all schools in America. He got heckled by a few idiots who blame the NRA for gun violence. The hecklers were forcibly removed from the room. He showed an online video game on the screen called “Kindergarten Killers”, if I heard him correctly. That’s a despicable video game, along with many others out there. I think he’s right about the need for armed security at schools. There may be copycats planning more violence right now. Shopping malls have armed security, so why not schools? Makes sense to me.

“Democrats are trying to seize momentum..”

No. They are politicizing childrens’ deaths to win on the only issue they haven’t skunked us on.

So 20 10-round mags or 10-20 round mags makes a difference?

perhaps we should start a parody campaign for low information voters where we get them to post a sign outside their house saying “we are unarmed” like a real estate sign.
