May the NRA be with you.

Because reason is gone.

 

[OriginalShroom]

I see some Democrats finally come to their senses.

 

[BreezeWood]

The final vote was 54 in favor to 46 opposed with two Republicans joining most Democrats in supporting the compromise.

That is just as well for an inept attempt - to say the least.

No need to waist any more political capital, the NRA will be sinking in the mud by its own weight soon enough.

1# We all know that expanding them will do little to stop the slaughter.
2# What right does the congress have to do this in the first place?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Excellent.

Polls don't override the Constitution.

More innocent Americans will die because of right wing stupidity, many of them innocent children.

More innocent Americans will die because of right wing stupidity, many of them innocent children.

And even more Americans will be alive because they used their personal firearm to save themselves from the criminals who laugh at the idea of following laws in the first place.

Don't worry! The Dems are working on a bill to regulate Pressure Cookers instead!

That should make you happy.

Where is the credible totally independent source to verify that allegation. The NRA has obstructed all meaningful gun crime statistics therefore there is none.

Dem Senators DON'T want to gun on Gun Confiscation?

Wowzer

I thought they had a winner there

The Argument Sketch

M: Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of any statement the other person makes.
(short pause)
A: No it isn't.
M: It is.
A: Not at all.

 

[Antares]

LOL, only fools think this would have changed anything for the better.

Specifically what would this bill have done? Anyone read it?

Glad to see your concern.

With this chapter over, you might direct your empathy in the following direction:

"What would you say, though, if I told you that this “good thing” that the government is forcing on us in the name of “saving the environment” is responsible for no less than 2,000 deaths per year?

Back in 2002, the National Academy of Sciences did a study on the effects of CAFE. They found that over the three decades CAFE has been in effect, downsizing of cars and trucks for fuel economy has cost us about 2,000 lives per year.

Less steel framing and smaller size equals more miles per gallon. It also means you’re rolling down the road in a vehicle with much less crashworthiness, making you more vulnerable to every stationary object, to that semi behind you … and to the guy in the normal-sized car.

This death toll figure was arrived at long before President Obama recently upped the CAFE standards by 30% and more. The death toll going forward will be even higher.

That is an absurd conclusion to draw from a defeated law that does NOTHING to protect children.

Such gullible tools

 

[koshergrl]

That's okay, Obama will work it through the treaty door.

We're still going to be disarmed.

Don?t be fooled. Gun confiscation has already begun in NY « Hot Air
