Seems that the NICS check bill that Toomey and Manchin have compromised on has (of course) some hooks.
Kinda like the “no fly list”, only worse.
Forget the record keeping issues, forget the “backdoor registration”. This is an ample reason to oppose this bill.
Soon, if this passes, we will all be mentally ill. Bet on it. 10 years, tops.
Spread the word. Tell all your acquaintances.
And CALL YOUR SENATORS.
Needs his ass kicked. He and Manchin have decided to sell out gun owners and the 2nd ammendment.
How much of Bloomberg’s silver did he clutch in his sweaty little hands?
Or was it even more than just Bloomberg money? Perhaps something else? What induced him to make such a career ending blunder? Photos with a goat? Perhaps a young boy? Dead hooker in the trunk? What?
You should go HERE and let him know your displeasure. I have.
And I intend to find out who his opponents are and contribute to their campaign(s). I’ll vote for a support a liberal who stands for something over a turncoat like Toomey.

makes ya think, doesn’t it?
Ya know, I have no idea of the magnitude of the grief the parents of the slain children in Newtown CT must feel. I have no children myself, so I cannot understand, not really, the grief that they must feel in having their children killed by a madman with a gun.
Having said that, I have to wonder what convincing it took for some of them to allow themselves to be used as tools by the anti- gun folks. To be manipulated by the President and his ilk. To allow the memory of their children to be perverted for anyone’s cause.
What inducements were used to get these people to allow their voices and visages to be used to promote gun control laws which would not, had they been in place before the Newtown tragedy, have prevented it from happening.
Can grief induce people to allow themselves to be used as pawns? Can grief allow them to be induced to pervert the memory of their innocent children? To allow themselves to blame the inanimate object and not Adam Lanza?
(This presupposes that the entire thing wasn’t some sort of put-up job, mind you, a fact of which I am not entirely convinced….there are as many holes in the story as there were in the report from the Warren Commission).
He is willing to sell out conservative values for airtime.
And he repeats the lie that over 90% of americans are for more gun control.
What the fuck were the folks in the GOP thinking making him RNC Chairman? He really has (and would like to) move the GOP to the left.
Again.
In my humble opinion he should be horsewhipped.
14 people stabbed at Lone Star College.
It appears that an X-Acto knife was used.Mostly just lacerations.
What if he had used a bigger knife? A chainsaw? A machete?
Not to be “blood dancing” here, but seriously. What if it had been at an elementary school? How many would be dead?
And no one had the wherewithal to hit the guy with a backpack or chair or anything? Perhaps it all happened too fast for the bystanders to react, I dunno. I wasn’t there so I cannot guess. But I wonder.
Bet on it.
Seems the Aussies have decided that that tax free retirement savings withdrawal setup (a Roth IRA like scheme) that was promised to responsible people who chose to save for retirement is now subject to a 15% tax.
Just like your Roth IRA here ins the US is promised to be tax free when you withdraw it after retirement, The Aussies retirement was supposed to free of taxes.
But the current government has changed their mind. And there is nothing anyone can do about it.
The “Bank of Simmons looks more and more attractive. Why save or do anything when the government can choose to renege on it’s promises? When they can decide to steal tax you money at whim?
I keep hearing rumors that the DNC types are looking at a similar scheme to take tax retirement accounts over some arbitrary amount (like $2million).
As the late (and lamented) Margaret Thatcher, the “Iron Lady” said:
“The problem with Socialism is the you eventually run out of other people’s money”.
She was right.
Another reason we as American Citizens need to have the Second Amendment……They can’t do anything about their rulers government down under, they are disarmed and at the mercy of those with arms….the government and the police. We can still (sorta) revolt.
Mine won’t be illegal, they’ll just be “undocumented”.
Hey, it works for Mexicans and such….
I am talking , of course, about the few firearms left after that terribly tragic canoe accident last week…….
Racial Discrimination is always the fallback. Especially of the undereducated.Yet he claims that the justice system is targeted against blacks.
But one would expect someone as educated as Eric Holder to somehow rise above such things.
If so, ONE WOULD BE WRONG.
Yet looking at his career, you can see that he was given preference over many because of his skin color….How many white folks? But that sort of thing doesn’t matter, does it?
He is as racist as he claims white people are.
Sickening.
Beretta is leaving Maryland
Can’t blame ’em either. But it is gonna hurt the state and the citizens of that state.
But actions have consequences.
420 jobs and $31 million in taxes. Plus support industries. Soon to be gone.
Hope they come to Indiana.
