(CNSNews.com) – Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Thursday that a gun is “an instrument of terrorism” and that “sensible gun control consistent with the 2nd Amendment” is “a matter of homeland security.”
“I believe that sensible gun control consistent with the 2nd Amendment and consistent with a responsible gun owner’s right to own a gun is a matter of homeland security,” Johnson told the Senate Judiciary Committee in response to a question from Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) on whether it was “a significant security vulnerability” that terrorists can get “powerful firearms” and whether this is being exploited by those who would harm us.

>>Yes, that magic, non-existent “loophole” they keep referring to in an effort to further restrict lawful gun owners.
If I was selling a gun at a gun show and some goat-humper walked up and wanted to buy it, I’d tell him no. I don’t care if he calls himself muslim, arabic, persian, hindu, sihk, or sicilian. Same for dudes in hoodies, low-hanging pants, and felony sneakers. No swarthy looking dudes are buying my gun. Not taking the chance. Profiling stops the so-called “loophole” in its tracks.
Add to that planes, vests, trucks, cars, fertilizer, knives, etc.
To them sensible gun control is getting them out of the hands of law abiding citizens then those that are left who have guns have to be criminals. See?
Shut up, Jeh (whatever the hell that means) and count your shekels. Be glad you were hired by a member of your race.
Time is not only running out for this phony foreign exchange student cum president, but for you and any advances those of your race have made.
Most of us are sick to the point of puking over the evil that Odumbo has larded his evil rebime with.
Not to.forget shoes and underwear!
If that’s the way they want it, then fine. We will defeat them and restore the republic.
getting rid of the current secretary is the most important security the country can take
Get rid of Muslims and the insane Liberals (but, repeat myself) and we won’t have to worry about any of that. America would be a nice, safe place again.
Trump 2016!
Of course. Now that Obamacare is law they will say it’s a health care crisis and ban them “as the secretary shall determine.”
Yep. Should be no problem, then.
Guns are easy to make.
I could probably make a functional low-quality six-shot revolver in a week if I dedicated myself to the effort and had at least $100 in my bank account.
Ammo is a tougher proposition.
The Palestinians can make thousands of rockets and lots of bombs, despite Israel’s best efforts.
What we needed is Obama control.
The Irish Republican Army apparently was able to smuggle past the British:
“five hundred crates of AK-47s, pistols, hand grenades, ammunition and seven RPG-7s”
“a cache of DShK heavy machine guns”
“a shipment of 14 tonnes, including, according to the authorities, two SAM-7s”
“another shipment of 80 tonnes which included one tonne of Semtex, reportedly ten SAM-7 missiles, more RPG-7s, AK-47s and hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition”

SAM means surface-to-air.
Yes, surface-to-air missiles, twelve of them.
The IRA actually got more weapons than it wanted.
I call it Common Sense Hussein Control. We may even need Common Sense Common Sense Control to be applied to ‘rats.
Doing away with passing lanes and dropping the maximum speed to 40 mph would save more lives than any of these proposals. Yet they won’t do it because it affects THEIR right to travel, a right not even enumerated in the Constitution.
the BS “gun show loop hole” means that you cannot give your family owned gun to your grand child without going through a gun dealer.
The Bass Turds want your guns. From the .22 to your shotguns.
time to shut down HSA and the TSA.
Sorry W you screwed the pooch on these.
