I received a call from the NRA tonight saying that this bill will be brought to the Senate floor in the next couple of weeks. I hope everyone will contact their Senator and express your displeasure at this legislation. I have posted the information directly from the NRA site and provided their links for your convenience. With America facing terror threats daily, this is no time to lose our right to bear arms.

One more reason John McCain should be looking for a new line of work. How can a man who served his country now turn on it and betray it in its hour of need?

All I had to do was look at the co-sponsors to see how bad it is:

Sen Carper, Thomas R. - 5/15/2001
Sen Clinton, Hillary Rodham - 7/17/2001
Sen DeWine, Michael - 5/15/2001
Sen Lieberman, Joseph I. - 5/15/2001
Sen Schumer, Charles E. - 5/15/2001

Unfortunately, I already know how my Senators will vote on this - Allen: Against and Warner: In favor. They will be getting a call from me anyway. Thanks for the heads up.

Does anyone else believe that future terrorist attacks will involve the use of semi-automatic gun attacks in high populated places, therefore resulting in high casulties and massive cries for knee-jerk gun legislation, including outlawing and confiscation of firearms?

It sounds crazy, but think what the result will be if that happens. Americans are already perfectly fine about giving up their rights for lip-service BS disguised as security.

We need to put our heads together, (plan a pre-emptive strike if you will) and think of ways to nip this in the bud, before we wake up and find the Second Amendment stricken from the Constitution!

While I recognize that the anti's have had a great deal of sucess at the incremental destruction of the rights of gun owners, do they really think that those of us who understand the ramifications and history of gun confiscation and control will go quietly into the night?

These people are ultimately signing their own death warrant like all the other petty tyrants in history. I for one, will not live in this country without the second amendment, and I will go down fighting. I hope all traitors to this country will take heed of this, and realize that the line is about to be crossed, and there will be no going back. When the bloodshed starts, it will be on their hands.

Please do not abuse the state news feature. This is national news, not state news.

I got a call from the NRA as well. McCainiac has become the leading voice for sweeping gun control in the Senate.

Gee, sure hope that melanoma of his isn't catching up to him or anything. Sure would hate for a man to die of that horrible form of cancer.
