Last night, Congressman Jim Moran (D-VA) hosted an anti-gun townhall panel event at Washington-Lee High School in Arlington, VA.
With the help of the Arlington Falls Church Young Republicans club, hundreds of constituents from Virginia’s 8th congressional district-mostly Second Amendment activists-came to the event to express their dismay with Congressman Moran’s support for anti-gun policies.
The event, “Preventing Another Newtown: A Conversation on Gun Violence in America,” featured five gun control speakers:
Omar Samaha – Advocate with the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence; family member of gun violence victim in Virginia Tech tragedy David Chipman – ATF Special Agent (retired), advisor to Mayors Against Illegal Guns Josh Horwitz – Executive Director, Coalition to Stop Gun Violence Earl Cook – Chief of Police, City of Alexandria Jonathan Lowy – Director of the Legal Action Project, Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence Karen Marangi – Advisor to Mayors Against Illegal Guns and Principal, the Raben Group
“Our nation’s gun problems go far beyond these mass shootings…People are shot on a daily basis,” Moran said.
During the Q&A section portion of the townhall event, young conservative activist and gun owner Celia Bigelow confronted Moran about supporting female victimhood.

Why would he listen to gun owners? He just got re-elected didn’t he?
He’s not going to care what gun owners think and that’s the point.
I can think of six right now whose getting shot wouldn’t break my heart.
Exactly. There could have been 10,000 there and he wouldn’t have listened.
Like the thousands in new York who are not being listened to, or the thosuands in Maryland who are ignored.
The Government Of the liberals , by the Liberals and for the Liberals could care less what a Patriotic American wants.
hey
you fools elected this maggot who is trying like so many others to take away your rights and ability to protect yourself, family and things.
live with the results
Exactly.
Statement from Chris W. Cox, NRA-ILA Executive Director, regarding inaccurate NBC story alleging that NRA won’t oppose background check bill
An article appearing today on NBCNews.com is falsely reporting that NRA will not oppose legislation being negotiated in the U.S. Senate that would mandate background checks for all gun purchasers.
The story posted on NBCNews.com alleges that NRA will not oppose expanding the background check system to include all private firearm sales, “provided the legislation does not require private gun sellers to maintain records of the checks”. This statement is completely untrue. The NRA opposes criminalizing private firearms transfers between law-abiding individuals, and therefore opposes an expansion of the background check system.
The NRA supports meaningful efforts to address the problems of violent crime and mass violence in America, through swift and certain prosecution of violent criminals; securing our schools; and fixing our broken mental health system.
Little weasel would NOT even attempt to answer her question!
They do seem to live a long life.....makes one wonder.
What they don’t understand is that this life we are now living is just a “drop” in the bucket.
They seem to have no concern about what happens after. They probably sold their soul without any thought or belief as to what they have actually done.
Thanks for the ping. This is a must FB share.
