It is not much to celebrate when the votes were as close as they were.


I agree. The fight goes on.

He can't. EO's do not have the force of law. To do that it would have to be an actual law.....

Oh, please . . . Rule of Law is soooo pre-obama. That isn't how this country roles anymore.

"Assault Weapons Ban defeated 40-60"

That's encouraging, since it's a worse defeat than the rest of it.

The only way this could be better is if Feinstein, like a female Rumpelstiltskin, stamps her foot so hard that she creates a sinkhole and falls into it, never to be seen again.

OK, so let’s say The Won (can I presume sufficient familiarity to just call him “The”?) issues an EO requiring you to involve an FFL and get a background check for private transfers. Supposed you then make a private transfer and don’t comply. So then they arrest you. Your indictment has to list the law they say you broke...what, do they just type in “Dissing the Lord High Obama” where the indictment wants to know what law you broke?

They can always find some law that you broke. After the SSWAT team comes in, they can look for others. Remember that you are already the worst form of terrorist in their eyes by being a conservative. I'm pretty sure that “Dissing the Lord High Obama” will soon be one of the worst crimes that one can commit.

GOOD!!!,

The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

IMO, there should be no background checks.

The criminals will get the guns illegally anyway. It won’t stop gun violence nor will it keep guns out of the hands pf those who plan violence against others.

That may be true, but their peckers can be cut off so they can no longer screw us.

Arlen Specter wxt dream was pushing gun registration on the masses just as is his now owned protege’s, Pat Toomey.

He has always been connected with the so called Harvard NYC elites and corporate welfare sap suckers who want nothing more than to push gun control on the backs of average Americans. Their single goal is to whittle away at the 2nd Amendment and turn Americans into serfs.
