Giffords: Oregonians Should Have To Pass Same Background Check My Attacker Passed
ammoland.com ^ | 4/3/2015 | AWR Hawkins

On March 27 215 Gabby Giffords backed Oregon Democrats in pushing all future Oregon gun purchasers to pass the same background check Jared Loughner passed to acquire the firearm with which he attacked Giffords and eighteen others in Tucson.

The legislation–SB 941, sponsored by [longtime gun banner] state senator Floyd Prozanski (D-Eugene)–would require a background check for every gun sale and/or transfer in Oregon–whether retail or private–except for sales between “close relatives,” which would continue to be a privilege the government allows.

Yeah, right. We need more infringement on our rights like we need another hole in the head. Ooops.

I guess she doesn’t understand that it didn’t help. Her reasoning is impaired, sadly.

Background checks are not required for any others of The Bill Of Rights. Thus, politely Giffords, Eff you.

Did she say that or did her handler/hubby mouth the words to her?

Looked at the article link. Still didn’t see anything like a video that proves SHE said whatever. Show a video or audio or STFU and we can assume it was her handlers (husband et al) speaking “for” her.

My point exactly. Nothing in the link that shows conclusively she did anything other than be posed for a picture with her fist up in the air. A puppet for others until proven otherwise.

She is a liberal, after all; "The law/policy/regulation has failed, so we need more of it".

Remarkable. But still pretty dumb.

In my wandering of articles, etc. since her unfortunate debilitation by a liberal-minded madman, I have never seen or heard (mainly heard) anything from her that makes me believe she is of full faculty now. It is my opinion she is a mentally disabled puppet being used by her husband and the interests that fund him.

Why?

Is she implying that Oregonians are going to attack people like her attacker did?

What Gifford, or her handlers, fail to mention, is that the wacko little bastard who shot her and killed others, was in fact notified to the police. Who was culpable? The local chief who ran to get up in front of the Media to deflect from his failure. They could have taken the nut case in for a 72 hour evaluation in any of the calls.
The dude was/is a full blow looney.

But dont worry, there are only an estimated 3 million of these loose on the streets.

Incrementalism.

"These standards have been proven to be insufficient, we need MORE regulations and background checking!"
