Yeah, and that 95% showed up at that anti NRA rally yesterday. Do these azzhos really think people believe them?

Just wait, democrats will make sure more poor people die to get their point across. Question is, who will the dems plant death upon next to make their case?

Hey dems, you might get more pity if you attack the humane society.

Democrats and gun control is like a Boa Constrictor,
every time you exhale it gets another grip until
you can’t breath any more, then it unhinges it’s
jaw and starts working you down.

“Unfortunately, tragically, regrettably, there’ll be other incidents of gun violence that we will remind you of how much is at stake,” said Sen. Richard Blumenthal, democrat.

We know that the Democrats are hoping for another Newtown to exploit so that they can wade through the blood trolling for gun control support from the sheeple.

‘As Tasteless As It Gets’: Democratic Sen. Finds Opportunity in Newtown Massacre
Apr. 12, 2013 5:35pm Becket Adams

Connecticut Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal on Thursday cited the Newtown shooting massacre in a fundraising email to supporters.

From an editorial in the New Haven Register:

“In the wake of the horror of the December 14, 2012, massacre of 20 beautiful children and 6 dedicated educators,” Blumenthal is asking supporters to send money to his 2016 re-election campaign!

Democratic lawmaker: To get gun control, Obama must ‘exploit’ shooting

The Washington Times

Friday, December 14, 2012

A veteran Democratic lawmaker believes the nation will go along with stronger gun control laws if President Obama “exploits” the Newtown, Conn., tragedy and nudges Congress to action.

Rep. Jerrold Nadler, who represents portions of New York City, said he was encouraged by Mr. Obama’s statement on Friday afternoon that the mass shooting, which claimed the lives of 20 young children, requires “meaningful action” by Congress, but hopes those words turn into concrete legislation.

“These incidents, these horrible, horrible incidents ... are happening more and more frequently. And they will continue to happen more and more frequently until someone with the bully pulpit, and that means the president, takes leadership and pushes Congress,” Mr. Nadler said during an appearance on MSNBC’s “The Ed Show” with Ed Schultz.

Mr. Nadler was asked whether the Newtown tragedy could be the turning point in many Democrats’ longstanding struggle to enact stronger gun laws.

“I think we will be there if the president exploits it, and otherwise we’ll go on to the next” incident, Mr. Nadler said.

Another Newtown is nothing compared to what the infanticidal Obama would be planning if we gave up our guns.

What’s 20 murdered children compared to 20 million?

“They want another Newtown?? What for, when they already have Chicago?”

Shssss. Be quiet.

That is the hometown of the Messiah.

Thou shalt not speak of that.

Democrats play to win, republicans don’t even dress for the game. The jihadist attacks in Boston at this point in time gave the right an ample supply of ammunition to destroy amnesty and gun control. They have done nothing. Nothing. Calling them incompetent just does not cover it. They are eunuchs with tiny brains.

Then GOA, NRA and liberty lovers everywhere better do the same thing.

... a ‘Next Newtown’

We still haven't learned everything that happend in the Old Newtown:

- What was on Lanza's computer?

- Lanza was addicted to violent video games which have multiplayer abilities; did he connect with unsavory characters online?

- Lanza had an altercation at the school the day before the shooting. What happend? Why was he allowed back in the building?

Get ready. The next AR-15 shooting will be horrendous. Say in a maternity ward or a baby nursery. Then Obama will parade the parents around to elicit emotion.

Some things about Sandy Hook were just not right. No one will convince me otherwise.

Maybe Putin and Li told Hussein that they won’t send their “peacekeepers” to protect him until he disarms US Americans. When the dollar falls 350% from it’s pre-Nov2008 value and our dictator declares Martial Law, the big cities will become prisons with the unarmed middle class sitting on “economic death row”. No good can come from Wahusseington. Unseal his Pandora’s box and let American’s see why thousands of his documents must be hidden!

Toomey claims only 5% are vocal? What BS. His office never took my name when I called so how would they know. The more I hear from this guy the more I think he is a POS.

"The next Newton is inevitable if you do act. What is being proposed does nothing to stop the next one and may in fact encourage it. (I've seen, but not seen sourced, something like mass school shootings have gone up by 500% since "gun free zones" were instituted.)"

Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., the other chief architect of the bipartisan compromise on background checks, suggested last Friday that the legislation would have proven “much more acceptable” if it had been on the floor in January. That’s when emotions still ran high after Newtown and the gun lobby was more divided.

Traitor Joe is deliberately dancing in the blood of dead children. He is a disgusting puke.

If the pubs weren’t firmly in bed with these traitors,
they’d use the “inoculation” technique that the rats always use -

get out in front of it, get on record foretelling their behavior, accuse them of desiring it to advance their agenda, and then when they do try it, point out that you predicted this behavior and that no one should fall for it.
