Four Democrats advocate gun control legislation following Colorado shooting


Four Democrats have come forward in the wake of the mass shooting in Aurora, Colo. to voice support for new legislation aimed to combat gun violence.

Colorado Rep. Diana DeGette, New York Rep. Carolyn McCarthy and New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez joined Sen. Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey Tuesday to voice support for Lautenberg's bill outlawing the sale of high-capacity gun magazines.

"I hope that this does spark a national conversation about where we go in terms of reasonable gun control measures," Menendez told reporters gathered for a press conference on the issue. "So that no one like Alex Teves, who grew up in New Jersey and found himself in Colorado, will ever again be gunned down by a man who could build an arsenal with a click of a mouse and have it delivered to his door by the cart load--ammunition, high capacity clips, explosives, bomb-making materials--all within the law."

Anyime there's any attempt to restrict gun rights, it's always coming from the Democrat Party.

Communists hate private gun ownership.

Whew...good thing we aren't Communists then. I love my guns...of course, I don't have military style weapons whose only purpose is to kill as many people as possible in the least amount of time.

All of our fundamental rights have "riders" on them. Why is this right so "untouchable" and can't have any restrictions on it?

Well it seems that GOP efforts to turn the US into a Macro version of the Wild West seems to be succeeding.

I'm glad some Democrats are developing enough of a spine to try and abate the blood bath.

The problem is some politicians think gun ownership of any kind is a threat.

They won't stop at assault weapons.

I personally don't see the need for owning an assault rifle other than just to collect it.

I have heard that Obama is waiting till after the election to use regulations and executive-orders to essentially outlaw private gun ownership.

I take it you would never in a million years vote for a gun hating communist like Willard, correct?

I "hear" a lot of things, but nothing I've ever heard has led me to believe that ANY elected official wants to outlaw private gun ownership. I've heard plenty that want to put restrictions on ownership, but not to outlaw ownership outright. That's ludicrous.

Romney a Gun hater?
"I believe we need to focus on enforcing our current laws rather than creating new laws that burden lawful gun owners. I believe in safe and responsible gun ownership and that anyone who exercises the right to keep and bear arms must do so lawfully and properly. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all federal approach to gun ownership because people keep and use firearms for different reasons. Law-abiding citizens have a right to protect their homes and their families and as President, I will vigorously defend that right."

President Obama
“I think it’s important for us to recognize that we’ve got a tradition of handgun ownership and gun ownership generally. And a lot of law-abiding citizens use it for hunting, for sportsmanship, and for protecting their families. We also have a violence on the streets that is the result of illegal handgun usage. And so I think there is nothing wrong with a community saying we are going to take those illegal handguns off the streets. And cracking down on the various loopholes that exist in terms of background checks for children, the mentally ill. We can have reasonable, thoughtful gun control measure that I think respect the Second Amendment and people’s traditions.”

That's not working at all, from the street gangs in his state is it?
 
Knee-jerk reaction to violence with a weapon is to control the sale of the weapon. OUTLAW the weapon.

Numbnuts that propose to prevent bloodshed by outlawing certain weapons (or attachments thereto) fail to admit is that outlaws do not pay attention to laws.

I have military style weapons that I use on the range quite often. They have other purposes besides the military. They're very good for ridding your property of ground-hogs.
