I thought Newt did poorly wrt Automatic weapons.

It is not illegal to possess a pre-1986 fully-automatic weapon.

You do have to obtain a Class III Stamp to do so, but they are not off-limits to the public.

Newt misfired.

If they want, we can make it a self-fullfilling prophecy.

How I wish Gingrich was Prez now.

I'd settle for PeeWee Herman.

If they make firearms illegal, it will only make the black market for them explode.

Like in Star Wars when Princess Leah said *The more you tighten your grip, the more star systems will slip through your fingers.*

Same principle.

“The government doesn’t “permit” me anything, including guns.

I permit them some small amount of resources that I yield up reluctantly.

They work for me. I own the rights. They are MY SLAVES.”


Very well said. As I said before http://youtu.be/qLIva0__zhk , our home owners association should have MORE power than the damned federal ___wipes. “Moving up” in public service We are ironically are the ones who do the servicing) - but moving up in public service should be as follows. You start out as a US Congressman - and after you get some experience and prove yourself - then you move up to your state and local government. We need to tell this tyrant to go get his freaking shine box (Goodfellas reference).

Piers Morgan isn’t a citizen? Is he here illegally or on a visa?

Totally agree and he would have danced circles around obama in all 3 debates.

I guess Piers is a typical homosexualoid dhimmituding sharya male feminist, mocking a woman who needs semi auto and high cap features in order to avoid the difficulty of handling bolt actions which are mainly for men stature, asking her if she needs a tank.

She might as well have been on a wheel chair defending her rights and he would have been: you need a tank?

Let them eat cake I guess...

Liberals are vile racist fascists.

The title of this thread should be “How Conservatives saved the career of Piers Morgan”.

I could care less about Newt’s marital status. It was his eagerness to throw conservatives under the bus on fiscal responsibility (he accused Paul Ryan of “right wing social engineering”), immigration (implying that those Republicans who opposed amnesty were not “humane”) that kept him from building a winning coalition. And since the election he’s pushing for a Republican cave on homosexual “marriage”. Every time Newt had a bit of a surge during the primaries he said something stupid and killed his own momentum.

He keeps bringing up 100 rounds a minute. He should investigate the numbers of rounds NYPD officers have been putting out in their rare but violent shootings. Amadou Diallo was fired on 44 times in ten seconds. Two of the cops fired 5 times. That meant the two others fired 39 shots. If all someone wants to do is shoot lots of lead at a crowd a 1911 with six extra mags can unleash a lot of lead in a short time. Say50 shots in 55 seconds. You are right. It’s about total ban on any firearm.

Newt Gringrich has his strong points - he’s smart and is one of the few leading Republicans who will really debate liberals and take the fight to them. Gingrich’s problems, in both his personal and political life,are his lack of self-control and discipline and his short attention span. Plus his pandering to the Latino lobby is sheer suicide for the GOP.

I do, too. He was my choice, but honestly I think his level of intellectual discourse is above what more than half of America could handle. America, stuck on stupid.

“I could care less about Newt’s marital status. “
Good for you. At least you are judging him on his political BG! I know everyone had their “favorites.” I was just commenting on the non-political “issues” that drove certain group’s voting decisions. One thing is certain, any of the Republican candidates would have been light years better than what we got.
