My RINO senators (Chambliss and Isakson) would have to clear any action with McLame, Light in the Loafers Lindsey, and of course their new friend, Barry. Besides, a filibuster might cut into their tee times, and Happy Hour.
Assault Weapons Ban / Magazine Limit - DOA
Money for School Safety - Probably will pass (politicians have a hard time saying to this "for the chilun'" crap.
Increase Penalties for "Straw Purchases" - Probably will pass.
"Universal Background Check" - Probably won't pass, at least in it's current form with the registration scheme, however this is the most dangerous piece of legislation that is still breathing and the gun grabbers are really putting all there cards into it and portraying it as a "sensible and reasonable" common sense solution that a majority of American's support, when really it's little more than a Trojan horse for gun registration.
Mental Health Records (Veterans Ban) - This hasn't really been discussed much in the media or by the politicians so it is sort of a wild card. My gut feeling is that it won't go anywhere because of the anger from Veterans on the Right and Privacy/Patients Rights groups on the left.
“When They Pry Them From My Cold,Dead,Hands”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
While these rat bills are utter abominations, it might be wise to let them have their precious anti-2A bills...
Consider: Rats voting for these bills will be extremely vulnerable in the ‘14 election. There are a bunch of them, so many that I doubt these bills would pass simply because of their fear of being thrown from office. Remember, the ‘94 landslide was caused in part by the Clinton Gun Ban. A repeat landslide would be nice, and would send a rather clear message.
Of course, the problem would then be the gutless, spineless “leadership” in the House. But, I simply cannot see the rank and file House Rep going along with passing such legislation. If they pressed the issue, Boehner and Cantor might be thrown out. Bonus all around!

Certainly we should support any roadblocks to keeo the bills from coming up for a vote. But we should also try to make sure that there are enough votes in the House to kill these bills.
They need House approval in addition to Senate approval. And even McCain indicated the assault rifle ban, among others, is dead in the Senate.
At the same time we are fighting battles on the local and state level against these demons from hell.
I have NEVER heard so many mass shootings in the news as recently. I find it hard to believe the Obama Adminsitration is not behind engineering some of them. If he can engineer a 2% decrease in the RATE of increase of the Federal Budget into a situation where significant impacts are felt by the public, the Bastard and his minions are capapble of anything - as we saw recently with that witch in Ohio who voted 6 times for Obama.
Sent my letter to Lindsey Graham and Tim Scott for all the good it will do.
FU Lindsey!
The fact that such an egregiously anti-gun bill has gone from committee to a vote is dangerous and bordering on treason. It makes me sick that we’ve come to this point in this nation.
100 years ago, the sponsors of such a bill would be driven out of DC tout de suite.
