A hot mic at a May 9 New Jersey Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee hearing caught state senators mocking gun owners after the meeting ended.

The Senators had just finished discussing new gun control legislation when the hearing adjourned. Then a conversation that "appears to be among Sens. Loretta Weinberg (D37), Sandra Cunningham (D31), Linda Greenstein (D14)," and an unidentified member of a senatorial staff, took place. It began by mocking gun owners for fearing confiscation and ends by talking of how gun owners say they want to keep guns out of the hands of "the bad guys," yet they won't support any new restrictions to do it.

The first line of the conservation was, "We needed a bill that was going to confiscate."(continued)

I doubt if this was unintentional at all. They're putting the peasants on warning that this is what they're about to do.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Uppity, low tier public servants.

[2ndDivisionVet]

They’re state senators (law-makers) and their aides, not hirelings at the DMV or food stamp office.

These people are the real face of the Democrat party.

They’d be happy to limit you to riding your bike (or public transportation with gang-bangers) too.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

The first line of the conservation was, "We needed a bill that was going to confiscate."

Did this person "Hawkins" mean 'conversation'?

[Frank_2001]

In other words, they are in WAY over their heads! DMV is where they BELONG!

Someone can then be heard laughing, and another voice says, "They want to keep guns out of the hands of the bad guys, but they don't have any regulations to do it."

Ummmm. Hello?! McFly! Just how many regulations already EXIST that haven't done squat to bring in criminals?
