Illinois Congresswoman says handgun bans are next

Illinois Democratic Congresswoman Janice Schakowsky wants to make one thing very clear … the attempt to ban so-called ‘assault weapons’ is only the beginning of the planned attack on the Second Amendment.

Schakowsky made these comments to a reporter at the One Billion Rising Women’s Rights Rally in February.

Referring to the Sandy Hook tragedy as “a moment of opportunity,” Schakowsky went on to say that “everything [is] on the table … There’s no question about it. We’re on a roll now, and I think we’ve got to … push as hard as we can and as far as we can.”

When pressed on exactly what that meant, Schakowsky noted that her choice for the next ban would be handguns, followed by allowing individual communities to deny Second Amendment rights to those who live or travel within their boundaries.

I am sure that, even now, she is being chastised by the White House for letting the truth slip. But make no mistake about it … it is the truth and it is the ultimate goal of the Democratic Party.

After all, Representative Schakowsky isn’t a newly-elected rookie. She is a member of the Democratic Party leadership, serving as Chief Deputy Whip as well as sitting on the Steering and Policy Committee which is instrumental in formulating the party platform and strategy.

So remember her words when you hear Democrats parroting the party line that they ‘support the Second Amendment subject to reasonable restrictions‘ or when your Democrat friends constantly tell you that ‘no one wants to take away your guns.‘

Because I have news for you … they do want to take away your semi-auto rifle … and they do want to take away your handgun.

And once they have taken those, then your single shot shotgun will suddenly become a ‘close quarters combat weapon’ and they will take that too.

Don’t believe me? Just ask Congresswoman Schakowsky.

She couldn't help letting the cat out of the bag. Of course we already knew that was their hoped-for end game.

I would think that it would be better to ban Illinois Democratic Congresswomen.

Incremental restrictions leading to outright bans. Like rats they chew at it, bit by bit until it’s gone. The exterminators are on their way.. God willing.

I have to give it to Janice. She articulates what Democrats want to hear. If you doubt that, listen to all of the Democrats that go against what she says. (Silence) Now you know the enemy of freedom and liberty.

I wonder if violating the oath of office or the Constitution are grounds for removing someone from office?

Malfeasance is hostile, aggressive action taken to injure the citizen's interests.
Is malfeasance grounds for removal from office?

I detest this ugly shrew. My state can’t seem to get anything right.

She is apparently the most left-wing member in Congress. Socialist / Communist.

“I am sure that, even now, she is being chastised by the White House for letting the truth slip.”

Maybe, but at the same time they all know the msm will do whatever they can to neutrilize that comment, so the damage will be minimal.

BTW, I notice Schakowsky regards Sandy Hook to be an ‘opportunity’ to nullify the 2A. There are more than a few people who suspect the Newtown, CT murders to be a ‘false flag’, or at least something is seriously amiss.

These types of off-the-cuff comments lend credence to those suspicions.

There are plans to ban politicians just like yourself in the works, too, lady.

How handy, huh? Vile, evil people, the whole lot of them.
