CSPAN Live right now (link) Feinstein announcing firearms ban legislation...!

[tangent4ronpaul]

Exactly so Angela - they are going for broke and all they need to get what they want is that MOMENTARY lapse. Long enough to get the vote in and signed. After that, the "people" can whine about it all they like as the jackboots kick in their doors just a couple at a time. It is all they need.



That is insufficient. They would have to repeal 9A and 10A as well.

POWER GRAB! 9'TH AND 10TH WHAT? THAT AIN'T IN MY JBT HANDBOOK! - UP AGAINST THE WALL MF!

When is the vote for this?

[Acala]

How many of those congresscritters would exchange a vote on a watered down Feinstein ban, for a big increase in MIC, and promised cuts to future increases of welfare spending?

Quite a few, I'd imagine.

The gun lobby is powerful.. but so is the MIC. And there are countless other deals that could be arranged as well

It's a gamble for many of them. Gun owners really DO get even. More than any other group I can think of. And no deal does you any good as a congressman if it costs you your seat. Unless it is a deal to set you up for life in a cushy position in the "private" sector. But their really isn't a crony-capitalist gun control lobby.

With gun related tragedies being propagated daily on the MSM the tides are turning quickly to a majority supporting a AWB as well as magazine size/ammunition restrictions.

Where do you see that? The polls I have seen show the opposite. There was a little blip of increased support right after the murders and then a slow decline. And the opinions are polling as "strongly held". The media has been hysterically pushing it and getting nowhere.

Harry and McConnell reach filibuster deal...

She replaced Harvey Milk after he was assassinated.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. +1. She replaced San Francisco Mayor George Moscone after he was assassinated. (Milk and Moscone were assassinated at City Hall at the same time by disgruntled former San Francisco Supervisor Dan White) I recall Feinstein bringing up this tragedy a few times.

The mentally challenged/Mental Health have practically no voice in Washington DC. Oh wait, let me rephrase it, what's the lobbying totals say, compared to; MIC, NAB, NRA, PHARMA, MPAA, PNAC, AMA, or AIPAC?

When the country's monetary system fails and despotism reigns... they realize those with nothing, have nothing to lose. Their actions can be anything and would threaten those that have plenty to lose. So it is is power grab now, to protect those elitists and their political partners for the future.

Thomas Jefferson was dead on, Rights and Liberties won't be taken overnight, they will slowly be chipped away.

Agree - I can see dispersing into the news stream...

Harry and McConnell reach filibuster deal...

But this again, something like this is seriously SCARY!!!!
