Obama curiously left out any mention of gun control from his inauguration speech

That's incorrect. He basically said his political opponents want more children to die ("our journey is not complete" until all law abiding citizens are stripped of the second amendment rights)

It ain’t a “Bridge to Far” until to you cut them off to prevent retreat and slaughter the bridgehead. Don’t see that happening.

Need to keep the Democrats from retreating, cut them off from any support, then use their anti-freedom stance to destroy them. The ‘Pubbies, esp. Senate ‘Pubbies, don’t have the guts.

Look at NY, they just gutted the 2a.

NY has been a cradle of tyranny as long as I can remember. The problem is New Yorkers. The vast majority of them love the taste of boot polish on their tongues and the feel of chains on their necks. Further they hate fear and envy those of us who don't want to be slaves to the govenment and want to inflict their degenerate ideas on the rest of us. Filth like Carolyn McCarthy, upChuck Schumer. etc. did not get elected by accident in NY. They were elected because the accurately reflect the "values" of those who voted them into office.

Except that the dims always ask for much more than they actually want.

And then they expect us to "compromise" to this exchange: we give up some more of our freedom, and they take it.

DiFi is the foil. She’s “safe”, can’t lose her spot for introducing something egregious like this. Reid would be in a jam if he did it.
Also, people EXPECT over-the-top liberal craziness out of her.

But, keep in mind, this bill is cover fire for the “compromise” which will still greatly infringe on our 2A rights.

Thanks for the ping.

Agreed.

I heard no such thing, and I watched the speech live.

[palmer]

I watched the speech live.

I never watch any of his teleprompter readings live. I read the transcripts and I still miss stuff. He did indeed call for "gun control", but can't use that phrase because then he would much rather use a phrase like "child safety". When he sends a proposed law to Congress you can bet it will be called the Newtown memorial common sense child safety law or something like that.
