Ten Gun Bills Proposed on Congress' First Day
http://reason.com/24-7/2013/01/04/ten-gun-bills-proposed-on-congress-first


Members of the 113th Congress introduced 10 bills on Thursday relating to gun violence, most of which came from Democrats seeking new restrictions on gun ownership.

The flurry of legislative proposals show that members are likely to push the issue in the wake of the December shooting at a Connecticut elementary school that left 20 children dead.

Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.)...introduced four of the bills. The congresswoman has vowed to seek changes in federal law in response to the school shooting.

More:


H.R. 137 and 138 from McCarthy would require people prohibited from buying firearms to be listed in a national database, and would prohibit the transfer or possession of large capacity ammunition clips.

McCarthy's H.R. 141 would require criminal background checks on all firearms transactions at gun shows, which would close the so-called gun-show loophole. Her H.R. 142 would require face-to-face purchases of ammunition, the licensing of ammunition dealers, and the reporting of bulk ammo purchases.

Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill.) and Rush Holt (D-N.J.) each proposed their own bills tightening firearms licensing requirements — H.R. 34 and H.R. 117, respectively. And Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) proposed H.R. 65, which would raise the eligibility age to carry a handgun from 18 to 21.

Rep. Jim Moran (D-Va.) reintroduced his bill, H.R. 21, to require background checks for all gun sales, and to require gun owners to report when their guns have been stolen. Moran argued in December that while the National Rifle Association objects to these changes, members of the powerful group support them.

Tell Congress to Reject the Feinstein Assault Weapons Ban


Our Constitution -- the Supreme Law of the Land -- included the Second Amendment provision to "keep and bear arms" to ensure that the new American government could not disarm the people.

The right to bear arms is an essential part of liberty and a free society. George Washington said that firearms "are the people's liberty's teeth;" and Jefferson stated, "Those who hammer their guns into plows will plow for those who do not."

Our forefathers knew the importance of an armed citizenry as a check against big government and tyranny. Further, they knew that individuals should always be free to protect themselves, their family, and their property.

Why has this become so controversial today?

The Second Amendment states, "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed."

I ask you to reject the reinstatement of an Assault Weapons Ban and its goal to restrict the purchase or transfer of military-grade weapons, for the Second Amendment protects such.

I want you to understand, care about, and protect the Second Amendment. Consider Thomas Mullen of the Washington Times' comment:

"Having weapons of war on the streets is the whole point of the 2nd Amendment. The amendment wasn't drafted to ensure that Americans could hunt. It wasn't drafted so that Americans could protect themselves, although the natural right to defend one's life was never as compromised as it is in the modern gun control era.

They weren't out to confiscate hunting rifles, 'fer squirrels and sech,' either. They intended to confiscate a store of arms that would outfit the average colonist with weapons roughly equivalent to the average British infantryman.

That's why the 2nd Amendment was written, to ensure that the government's army would never have superior firepower to the people."

Yes, the Second Amendment protects all weapons, even so-called "weapons of war." Again, this is not controversial -- it is simply what the founders gave us to preserve our free society.

I will not permit bad, utopian ideas that suggest society can abolish violence, aggression, and death by simply removing guns. Such an argument even child wouldn't believe - and I hope you don't. I stand for my right to keep and bear arms defensively, and I stand for my neighbors' rights to do the same.

As your constituent, I demand that you refuse any and all attempts to disarm Americans through Diane Feinstein's coming "Assault Weapons Ban" or any other gun control bill Obama or your colleagues may propose!

STOP Feinstein's Second Amendment Assault!

http://www.nagr.org/feinsteinvideo.aspx?pid=c




Oppose the McCain package and support the Paul amendment

The Blaze reported recently that Vice President Joe Biden "guaranteed" to ailing Boston Mayor Tom Menino that sweeping gun control legislation would be passed by the end of January.

How sweeping?

A quick look at Feinstein's semi-auto ban legislation suggests that up to 75% of all handguns currently in circulation would be banned, along with as much as 50% of all long guns.

Depending on its configuration, the AR-15's already in circulation would be treated like machine guns. The owner would have to be fingerprinted, background checked by the FBI, and undergo a six-month license application process to keep it. And when he died, the government will seize it.

If the owner didn't get an NFA license, he could expect the SWAT teams to descend on his house.

Gun owners are aware that the question of whether this legislation could pass the Senate depends on whether the Senate changes its rules so that it could pass a gun ban with only 50 votes (plus the vote of Vice President Joe Biden) -- or whether it can write the gun ban in a House-Senate conference committee on a must-pass bill.

And this is where the Senate rules change proposals come into play.

In particular, the rules change proposals being negotiated by Arizona Senator John McCain and Michigan Senator Carl Levin would make it much easier to pass draconian gun control into law.

The first McCain-Levin rules change would make it impossible to fight a motion to proceed to gun control legislation. Remember ObamaCare? Our last real shot to kill ObamaCare was by filibustering the motion to proceed to it. Once the motion to proceed was adopted, the bill became amendable and Harry Reid could play "let's-make-a-deal."

The second McCain-Levin rules change would make it easier to add gun control to a bill in conference. Currently, senators can block a conference. If the McCain-Levin proposals are adopted, a must-pass bill could be sent to conference ... amended in conference with a draconian gun ban ... and then sent back to the House and the Senate on a take-it-or-leave-it basis.

McCain will try to tell you that that would be outside the "scope of conference." But "scope of conference" rules are never followed. Gramm-Rudman was written in conference from the ground up.

The third McCain-Levin rules change would block any amendments except for those offered by Leader Mitch McConnell and Manager McCain proposed. All other senators would be out in the cold. This McCain-Levin package must be stopped.

In addition, I insist that you support the rules amendment being proposed by Senator Rand Paul, which would require a two-thirds vote in the Senate before any anti-gun measure can be passed.

Please write me letting me know your position on the McCain-Levin package and on the Paul amendment. Know that gun owners will regard a vote for McCain-Levin or against Paul as a vote on the semi-automatic ban itself.

According to a Dec. 27th posting on Sen. Feinstein's website and a draft of the bill obtained by NRA-ILA, the new ban would, among other things, adopt new definitions of "assault weapon" that would affect a much larger variety of firearms, require current owners of such firearms to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act, and require forfeiture of the firearms upon the deaths of their current owners.

A Widow Woman; that's a very special class of woman. Discretion!

http://able2know.org/topic/139594-1

All I can tell you is be patient and don't push her!
[]
My advice? Give her a wide berth. You may have to let her go way outside of your relationship to get her back.
[]
They just can't"or don't want to accept the reality of the situation.


http://www.widow.com/dating-and-socializing/dating/

The key to discussing any issues regarding a deceased spouse when dating a widow or widower is to be thoughtful. Try to tackle one issue at a time, and do so with tact and understanding. And if the grief and anxiety seem to be too strong for the widow/widower, be willing to step away and give them space.


http://itsyourtechnique.com/2010/06/12/how-about-dating-a-widower-what-should-i-know-q-a/

They want to be touched and comforted, and they long for attention, but they aren’t prepared to really commit to a relationship, no matter what they say to the contrary.


http://www.hreonline.com/HRE/print.jhtml?id=533328550

we made it clear that we would only talk to the widow,


only negotiate with her, on (our) very controlled, rational and civilized terms.




...its the shoulder thing that goes up...

- Widow Woman













No offence to widow women, all due respect to widow women... always treat widow women w/ kids gloves!


But keep in your back pocket:

If you need to be treated with kids gloves to do your job, then you don't deserve that job

I promise to preserve, defend and uphold the [KEEP AND BEAR] Constitution



Their swords and every terrible implement of the soldier are the birthright of Americans.

Tench Coxe 1788




God bless her,
God bless you and yours,
God bless all the deceased husband's and wife's back to eternity.



God bless the 2nd Amendment.

Feinstein’s New Gun-Ban Bill Likely to be Introduced January 22



Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.)–author of the federal “assault weapon” and “large” ammunition magazine ban of 1994-2004–has said for weeks that she will soon introduce an even more restrictive bill. Leaders in the U.S. Senate have stated that January 22 will be the first day on which new Senate legislation can be proposed, so that is the most likely date for the new, sweeping legislation to be introduced.

On Dec. 17th, Feinstein said (http://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=28d0c499-28ec-42a7-902d-ebf318d46d02), ”I have been working with my staff for over a year on this legislation” and “It will be carefully focused.” Indicating the depth of her research on the issue, she said (http://www.c-span.org/Events/Democratic-Senators-Respond-to-NRA/10737436852-1/) on Dec. 21st that she had personally looked at pictures of guns in 1993, and again in 2012.

What a fucking idiot. She'll look at pictures... PICTURES!?! Hopefully someone will slip in a couple of futuristic images of weapons that do not exist so she can look even more the idiot when she bans the lightning gun.
