Next week when Congress is in recess, gun control groups coordinating with the Obama committee Organizing for Action will be fanning out across the country in dozens of demonstrations at the offices of senators who voted down the background check bill.

I'm going to keep asking the same question:
How would your proposed change in the law prevented what happened in Sandy Hook?
If it wouldn't have prevented it, why are you using that tragedy as a justification for your proposed changes?

How about our budding fascist jackbooted ninja-wannabee stormtroopers get a dose of gun control first?

“which many national polls put at near 90 percent approval”
Yet that is not true, especially among those who read the proposals.

Obama’s ONLY (and I DO mean ONLY) goal here is to get this thing over to the House to die so he can blame that on Republicans and raise money off of it.

How would your proposed change in the law prevented what happened in Sandy Hook? Their interest it to eventually have a record of EVERY gun in the land so the communists will confiscate them. It will be the only way our corrupt government can control the masses and enslave us.

I suspect the Senators know that the only thing worse, politically, than supporting the original bill is flipping on it.
I suspect that they do know that and won’t support something that the NRA opposes.

No more gun control.
In fact, start pulling back all the laws out there.
STOP IT NOW.

Oh, it doesn't need to be true, this is the new America where democrats and their pals in the "news" media get to invent the narrative until their agenda is fully implemented.

It is not any “bi-partisan” group of senators. They are all statists. There is no disagreement among them. They all desire total government and no opposition from the subjects. Calling them Republicans and Democrats is like differentiating them by their first names or by whether or not they are bald or left-handed.

Sounds like a great opportunity for a COUNTER-PROTEST.
Of course, in my state of Konnecticut, all of my Federal legislators are Obama-pawns........

I'm going to keep asking the same question:
If you are doing a background check to determine whether or not I should be able to buy a gun, why do you need to know what type of gun I am buying, let alone the make, model and serial number?

The only thing that matters to this government is advancing its communist agenda.
That’s all, nothing else.

I’ve been promoting the concept of Official Reality, and this fits that rubric well.

WOW, blown away by this comment: “IS THIS THE AMERICA WE WANT?”
This is a 10-strike winning phrase. Please consider using it often.

Didn’t Tumor say right after the vote that he wouldn’t bring anything back up? That didn’t take long.
