Sen. Chuck Schumer D-N.Y. asserted on the Senate floor this afternoon that the Second Amendment was “not absolute” comparing restrictions on assault weapons to restrictions on child pornography.

“No amendment can be absolute,” Schumer said. “I believe you can be pro-gun and pro gun safety, just like you can be in favor of free speech but also against child pornography.”

Schumer proposed an assault weapon bans for civilians arguing that it would be an acceptable restriction on the Second Amendment.

“We can come together,” he said. “There can be a way of moving forward in the middle.”

EQUALS

Republicans and those who cherish freedom capitulating.

Democrats NEVER move and never compromise.

Forget assault rifles, the most dangerous thing in Washington on a Sunday morning is to get between that libtard Up-Chuck Schumer and a camera.

What an embarrassment that guy is to the few rational people of New York. Just shut up and go away. You don’t understand our Founders, Up-Chuck.

Then we should compare Chuck Shumer and Diane Feinstein’s fixation on them to porn addiction.

Chuck has admitted to having a carry license so by his own description, he is a NAMBLA perv?

I’d be willing to bet old Chuck knows more than a little about child pornography, but that drooling lackwit doesn’t know the first thing about firearms.

Every time we “come together” with liberals it is an loss for us and they still aren’t satisfiied and we keep doing it until we’ve lost everything, that’s a big part of the reason we’ve arrived at where we are, our “Conservative” and “Republican” leaders have compromised until we have lost our country. I remember in the Sixties Sen.Everett Dirksen (R)Il. saying “Republicans and democrats had the same goals just a different way of arriving at them” I knew that was wrong, I was a Goldwater Conservative Republican And I knew the democrats were socialist, today they don’t even hide it and the media doesn’t care, wasn’t there another obama appointee last week or so that is proudly a communist?
