Gabby Giffords Visits Chris Christie to Push Firearm Confiscation Laws

On March 18, gun control proponent Gabby Giffords met with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie (R) to discuss new firearm confiscation laws for the state.

In August, Breitbart News reported that Americans for Responsible Solutions (ARS)—the gun control group founded by Giffords and her husband Mark Kelly—began pushing temporary confiscation as part of its bid to find something that would resonate with the American people and give the group some traction.

At that time, the Arizona Republic reported that ARS was pushing for “Gun Violence Restraining Orders” which would “authorize law enforcement to remove access to guns, with court oversight and plenty of protections to prevent abuse of this authority.” They also wanted a prohibition barring “persons involuntarily hospitalized [from] purchasing or possessing firearms.”

So on March 18, Giffords was in New Jersey to discuss Democrat proposals for expanding gun prohibitions on firearm possession so that it not only covers those who are guilty of domestic violence, but also those who might be under a restraining order while awaiting trial for domestic violence...

I had no idea that the Bill of Rights was so conditional.

Did her puppet master carry her in?

Only on the stuff liberals don’t like.

Somehow there’s a constitutional right to abortion in there. I can’t find it.

Yet the clear and concise amendment #2, which says SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED,...

I think Mark was out buying another AR-15 so he could turn it into to the local sheriff’s office.

Well, at least he wasn’t sicking his dog on baby seals.

Gov. Crisco knows by now he hasn’t a prayer for the Republican nomination in 2016.

He might as well go full Cuomo on guns & bleep you America!

Hey Kids! It’s the Goofy and Gabby Show!!!

I’m imagining overbearing LEO’s “involuntarily hospitalizing” folks as a pretense to confiscating firearms.

A conservative would have politely declined.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

During Nam, I was a Nuclear Weapons Specialist and thus no combat experience.

...nor, any sense of fear.

She needs to go into Mexico to recover all of H0lders gunz.

Do you glow in the dark? ;-)

[ThunderSleeps]

But remember folks, “NO ONE IS COMING FOR YOUR GUNS! THAT IS JUST THOSE GUN NUTS!” That is, not until we are coming for your guns. But trust us, it’s only a temporary confiscation. .. for now... this time.

[Paladin2]

The children need your gunz......

[bigbob]

a little less room in which he can push them these days

[dalereed]

Sue the guy that shot her for being a bad shot!!!

[Liberty1st]

Gun confiscation: I'm sure that idea would REALLY "resonate with the American people". (BARF!)

Someone needs to tell Giffords, "Have you ever heard of the phrase molon labe???"
