Would be nice if someone were to mention the “Police being the only ones who are trustworthy enough to own guns... while said shoot up pickup trucks that obviously aren’t the ones they are looking for or road rage the citizenry while shooting said citizenry.”

I know that Lindsey Graham doesn’t have many fans here but he just did a great job at this hearing for protecting us from Feinstein’s gun grab.

Let us know when Little Lindsey or ANY republican has the -—— to bring up the fact that Diane and her husband Richard Blum are ARMS DEALERS ALL OVER THE WORLD and during the last ‘assault rifle’ ban, they got a waiver from the Clinton Admin to import thousands of Chinese assault rifles. If I know it, they know it.

They had a shooting in Delaware yesterday at the Federal Courthouse. EVERY cop had either an AR 15 or Mini 14. The same looked to be true of the cops in LA looking for Dunbar.I’ll be damned if I would let them take my SEMI AUTO weapons if I had any while they can go playing around with their full autos.

I'm sure that like so many inside the Beltway, Graham won't go that far due to fear of reprisal. There must be plenty of the usual dirt on him, but the near total silence suggests that a larger threat has been communicated.

So it's up to the people to see that these factoids are communicated. Click the link for one idea (and consider how many programmable roadside billboards now exist).

One thing during the hearing that stuck me is Dick Durban. An anti-freedom witness talked about her brother, who was shot and killed during a robbery. When she finished, Dick, offered his most sincere condolences.

The next witness was Dr. Suzanna Hupp (I believe). She was in the Luby’s massacre in Texas in ‘91. She told the story of how she lost her parents that day, and that she blamed the legislature for not allowing her to carry her weapon into Luby’s that day. When she finished testifying, Dick, didn’t say a single word to Dr. Hupp.

I guess he only cares about deaths of anti-freedom people.
What a ..... Dick.

Here is some recent discussion on FR about it.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2986270/posts?page=72#72

Dianne’s hubby, Richard Blum, got a waiver from the gun ban from the Clinton admin to IMPORT THOUSANDS of Chinese assault rifles. That’s what the BLUMS do...supply arms all over the world! They sold the govt. arms for the Iraq war as well.

Details...most of them seem to be ‘missing’. We did months of work on this subject when it happened.

There is some on the web, it would take a good investigative journalist with more contacts than I have.

Here’s a bit:

I do remember that scandal —the ATF called it Operation Dragon Fire, and it was in 1996, or so.

DiFi’s husband had and has connections with Poly Technologies (which is simply an arms division of the ChiComz), and the scandal primarily centered on importation of 2,000 fully automatic AK-47’s into the US:

The intended end-users were STREET GANGS in Los Angeles. They wanted to make money while sowing violent chaos in our country.

Few realize that the scandal also involved ANTI-AIRCRAFT MISSILES, and that we narrowly missed arresting either a major Chinese or Diplomat who was then inside the USA and handing the biz on this side of the Pacific.

The scandal got so huge that the State Department deliberately tipped off the guy, and he fled the USA. Thus the State Dept succeeded in heading off the then-impending Diplomatic crisis.

I remember that it was Blum’s connection with the ChiComs that permitted them to store the AK’s at some port facility in Long Beach, which was later also sold to the ChiComs.

DIANE FEINSTEIN HAS MAJOR CONNECTIONS TO CHINESE ARMS SUPPLIERS.

That woman hates, “AR’s” but apparently loves AK’s.

She is a hypocritical insect, loaded to the gills with Chinese money, and her SF house is totally amazing.

They keep talking about Heller vs- and self-defense in the home- what a bunch of crap! Do they not know that the words "home" "self-defence" do not appear in the Second Amendment?

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

There are no geographical limits on the Second Amendment.

My 7 CIVILIAN ancestors who fought againt the Tyrant`s troops at Bunker Hill and the Battle of Saratoga II marched all the way from Massachusetts carrying THEIR OWN WEAPONS to shoot any ENEMIES who would INFRINGE IN THE SLIGHTEST on their them of their right to bear arms and ammo...

With bloody battles against a tyrant already echoing fresh in their minds, Our Forefathers did not have any "home-defense" in mind when they wrote those words, but actually OFFENSE against any and ALL TYRANTS, anywhere,anywho anyplace, with any kinds of weapons TO MATCH THOSE CARRIED BY THE MILITARY THEY WERE FACING IN that time and against all future military, which means any automatic weapons, any weapons that the tyrant`s military has, in order not to be out gunned by the tyrant`s military or civil defense cadres..!!!

PERIODDDDDDD>~!!!!!!

I also am ready to march against any Troops the Tyrant has with weapons to match those of the Tyrants` troops as my ancestors did in 1777-

ANY TIME ANY PLACE ANY TYRANT!!!!

The Second Amendment IS FOREVER!!!

C`mon you SOB`s!!! Come n Get It!!!!.

Ding ding ding we have a winner !!

Actually if the libtards learned to read, the would find that D.C. vs Heller explicitly justifies private firearms ownership for MILITARY PURPOSES, specifically quoting Federalist 29.

Furthermore, D.C. vs Heller preemptively finds any ban on commonly used military firearms such as the M-16 to be unconstitutional !!!!

I am surprised someone from our side has not yet brought this up yet ...
