    The fact is that if they were going about this legitimately, they'd be making noise about repealing the 2nd Amendment. I would not support that, but at least that would be honest.
    That is insufficient. They would have to repeal 9A and 10A as well.

    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

    I hope you're right. 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. I hope we are as large and as politically vocal as you think. Everyone needs to call their respective congressmen. State in no uncertain terms that should they vote for more gun regulations you will actively campaign to remove them from office.

    It's amazing listening to them bray about doing this "for the children." Very sad; very sad that such dangerous people hold such great power in this country. I think Sen. Feinstein said that since the ban was lifted in 2004, 350 people have perished from "assault rifles" in the USA? That few???? We're going to infringe on the rights of 300 million people for that? I know it's insensitive, but based on the raw numbers, this has NOTHING to do with public safety, and everything to do with a power grab.
    I think she misplaced a decimal point. 35.5? In 7 years - yeah, sounds more accurate. According to FBI stats, 2% of shootings happen with long guns, and a tiny percentage of that is with "Assault Weapons".

    TOTAL POWER GRAB!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I see it from a variety of ways. (I have yet to see definitive (i.e. reliable- I'm not quite sure how you could definitively get nonbiased poll results) polls showing sentiment increasing or decreasing) The variety of things that lead me to believe that the tides are turning on the issue of gun rights is comments, videos, MSM articles, celebrity figures speaking out, and just the general attitude I pick up when mentioning gun rights in light of these recent tragedies. Many people I speak with seem more and more willing to concede their values and take the stance that clearly only the military should have these weapons. There are seemingly daily (two to three a week) big ass headlines saying "SCHOOL SHOOTING," or, "X PEOPLE SHOT AT SCHOOL." I don't feel many people are awake enough, or principled enough, to see the problems with being able to restrict people deemed mentally ill from owning guns. This is another area that will undoubtedly gain traction. I mean, what kind of "nut job" would fight for the rights of someone who has been diagnosed as mentally incompetent to own a firearm? They would become the laughing-stock of all MSM. They can't grasp that there may come a time when they themselves are deemed mentally incompetent. Or the broader implications of having the government determining mental competency in the first place. They are limited in their foresight. And many people who are less principled than us are undoubtedly being swayed by this barrage of MSM propaganda.

    The media is clearly on the side of firearms restrictions. But they don't reflect the general public. I was at the gun range on Monday and I have never seen it so crowded. I go to a huge gun range and I couldn't get a bench.

    Not even that. Tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions of people without the right to bear arms have been murdered. They want to take this all away for a classroom of children who the government failed to protect. The even sadder part is restrictive gun laws created the environment for them to be defenseless.

    Whether this or a watered down bill passes or not, one thing is clear: the Federal government is unlawful and no longer fit to hold any authority.

    This has been true for some time, of course, but never has it been so clear.
