Feinstein: Buy a shotgun to defend yourself from terrorists
Washington Examiner ^ | April 22, 2013 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 04/22/2013 7:29:17 AM PDT by theruleshavechanged

Feinstein cited the Vice President Joe Biden’s promotion of the use of a shotgun for self-defense.

“[Y]ou could use a 12-gauge shotgun and have a good defensive effect and there’s the element of surprise,” she added.

They (the left) must have determined (or just feel) that a shotgun wouldn’t be very effective in resisting leftist tyranny.

I wonder if Feinstein and Biden realize that the Columbine shooters both had, and used, a 12 gauge shotgun?

Probably not, or they’d be adding *those* to their idiotic gun control bills too.

It’s all part of their incremental approach to getting rid of guns. They don’t really care which is safer or more effective. They just focus on what they perceive as the most dangerous (to tyrants) of weapons, currently modern rifles, and tell us, “See, you can still have your shotguns”. Next would be handguns, as they already know that most gang killings are with handguns. Then they will say it again, “You can still keep your shotguns!”. Even if they could somehow get rid of every weapon but shotguns, then guess what...there would be killings with shotguns, and that would be the end.

What "element of surprise" is unique to a shotgun? Except maybe "hey, it is surprising that the terrorist has a military firearm, hundreds of rounds of ammo and plenty of explosives while I am forced to defend myself with just this measly bird gun!"

What hideous ignorance and idiocy coming from a person with her fingers on the levers of State power. Why do we put up with this?

Element of surprise?

The element of surprise is always with the attacker, who picks the time and place. Sometimes they lose it, but that’s tough luck.

Feinstein can kiss my Obama.

She’s a dope.

No, she's not. She is evil - she is trying, and has been for 20 years or more, to remove any effective implements of defending ourselves and our liberties.

She is EVIL. Repeat, EVIL. Don't lump her in with the merely ignorant, she's out after all of our guns.

Think about why the feds generally don't show up with shotties, but with rifles (semi- or full-auto).

EVIL is at work here, not ignorance.

Did she say what type shotgun? single shot 12 gauge? She’s on record for prohibiting many self-defense shotguns. I believe she’s also on record for stating that her “assault weapon” ban was just a start and she was for getting all firearms out of the hands of the citizenry.

And I’m sure this is understood on their part as well.
And I’m wondering why the push for “buy a shotgun”.

They must not think a shotgun is useful for defending oneself against commies in position of power.

People like Feinswine need to be constantly asked

“what do you want to do after the people are disarmed that you can’t do before?”

So one type of weapon is ok?
All fire projectiles. Shotguns are also simiautomatic.
Depending on the round all are deadly!
So it’s ok to kill, and own a shotgun for defense?
Stupidity reigns supreme in liberal la la land!

Perhaps Senator Feinstein should lead by example and tell her security detail that they can only carry shotguns.

Boston police fired more than 200 rounds from semi automatic weapons at two bombers and didn’t kill either one of them. She wants to limit me to 5 rounds or less in a shotgun?

How magnanimous of her, she is allowed as one of the special class to carry a concealed hand gun, but she will allow us to have a shotgun! When the elite surrender all of their weapons and armed security I might consider listening to them. Then again no, I never did like clowns.

If we're talking about this bad boy, I don't disagree with her.

Load it up with .00 buckshot, and you can really reach out and touch someone.
