Just another timely diversion from fiscal matterscontinued irresponsible government spendingspiraling debt headed towards the $20 trillion marktax some more and tax some morewheres all your concern for that Obama? Wheres your concern for the American people as a whole? And, as usual, you put somebody else in charge of coming up with a plan for gun control just as you do everything else because, as usual, you have no planyou have no ideayou have no clue.
But there was a very big bunch of idiots who voted this idiot back into office. And can you believe that Time Magazine voted Obama Person of the Year?? Doesnt take much to impress any more does it?
Never let a crisis go to waste...while you’re “other hand” is dismantling the country and its Constitution!
Citizen Control is alive and well.
Great. His administration coming clean about Fast and Furious. Excellent!
You better believe these proposals are already typed
up and waiting to be passed.
Between now and the first of the year, during the
holidays there is not enough TIME to write these up.
So they have been written up all along, just waiting
for the right opportunity.
Democrats are like a cancer.
I’m SURE that what joe biteme comes up with will end gun violence forever! It will put a big dent in the Constitution for sure.
What? You don’t believe the likes of Duncan and Sebelius can come up with something fair and unbiased?
LOL
Guns were banned at this public school. Many such mass murderers are cowards. They don't want to run into an armed victim. When armed responders are threatening to show, that is when the cowardly murderer takes his own life. Gun-control.
“We don’t need no steenking input.”
I agree. They’ve been written up for decades. It’s just that now they think they can get away with implementation.
Hope all is going good for you Tet68.
Obama going to Hawaii for 3 weeks and he expects his gun grab now will be ready to go when he gets back.
Obama wants to take action before the police investigation is even complete
“Assault rifle” is defined in Connecticut law. There was no assault rifle used.

Toughest Christmas in years, mom not doing well but
we make the best of it.
Merry Christmas to you and yours.-^^^^-
God bless us everyone.
:(
BTW, how many people have been killed by Obomas own gun running? Maybe we should outlaw people like Oboma first, then talk.
I did some digging last night and found a few things. The FBI estimates that about 100 million US households have legal firearms and they also tracked about 350 deaths where a rifle was used. Semi-automatic rifles are some subset of that 350 number, but it is not explicitly tracked separately from bolt actions, pump actions or single shot rifles. So, the rate of preventable deaths from semi-automatic rifles that are not needed is no more than 0.00035%.
Then I went to the CDC stats and found that they estimate that about 8-10 million US households have swimming pools and they tracked about 3,500 drowning deaths, but they do not track specifically the subset of drownings that occurred in bath tubs, lakes, streams or swimming pools. So, the rate of preventable deaths from swimming pools that are not needed is no more than 0.035%.
Our governments own numbers are showing us that swimming pools are 1,000 times more dangerous than semi-automatic rifles!
If we are willing to accept the premise that the federal government should infringe on our liberty to address unnecessary deaths, then we would see much more value in banning swimming pools! In addition, we would cause harm to much fewer individuals and we dont even have to deal with a Constitutional issue. Heck, we all know that swimming pools are a luxury that no family needs!
We should only allow people to swim in government owned pools.
Or we could simply live with the consequences of individual liberty and understand that we can address evil doers whenever possible, but we will never be able to stop all evil.
