They can do it because brain dead libs love gun control.

Dems appear to have given up on winning the House.

Gun control doesn’t play well in swing districts.

This is all about pandering to the hardcore lefty base.

I’m no fan of Paul Ryan, but I got to give him credit for this one, instead of caving and giving them a vote, he just adjourned the House and he and the rest of the Republican left town and left the Democrats looking silly sitting in an empty chamber demanding gun control votes from an empty podium.

I don't give him any credit. He allowed John Lewis to stop the business of the House by ignoring the rules of the House.

Ryan couldn't maintain order so he had no choice but to adjourn the House. He lost complete control and allowed the inmates to run the prison.

He should have given them a warning that if they did not stop their tantrum within 10 minutes they would be forcibly removed.

i am coming to the view
that
the problem is
people without any morals
do not ever
feel embarassed
by
their idiotic or harmful or offensive conduct

the enables them to keep on attacking other people and other peoples’s rights.... over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over....

being a communist or IslamoNazi “D”
means
never having to say you’re sorry
to anyone you hurt or threaten

Worthless RINO allowed Democrats to filibuster the BOR.

He should be embarrassed - where he capable of showing it.

they would be forcibly removed.

Yup, those visuals would have gone nowhere at all. I'm sure the network news would have told the story straight.

And they should be facing a majority reprimand and loss of privileges when they return. It’s not funny, it should be illegal, and it should be responded to.

Catered food and pillows at a sit-in? Wow, the lengths the Democrats will go to fight for their constituents, a good many of whom are responsible for many of the gun crimes in America in the first place. Were they protesting their own voters?

After the cleaning crew refused to give them smokes and would deliver beer they decided to go on holiday after all.

“What has gun control done in Chicago?”

Left decent, law-abiding Blacks without any real form of protection!

1. Chicago gun control has made it easier to buy guns on the street BECAUSE there's not a legal market...

2. Chicago gun control has made it possible for an eight year old or twenty year old criminal to buy a gun - with no background checks BECAUSE street criminals don't give a damn about anything beyond the cash.

3. It's handed over a multimillion dollar industry to Chicago Street Thugs... and the mob....

4. And it's increased the number of deaths of innocents because they can't defend themselves... I'm sure there's more...

These are just the kind of shenanigans that thankfully at least 50.01% of the voting public finds childish, juvenile and cliche’d. Not a winning formula acting like it’s 1968 all over again. The Democrats know what some of us do, they are about to nominate another loser. This time they are going to be really humiliated by someone they despise.

Maybe it IS a big success in Chicago. Just think what the carnage rate would be without it.
