Gabby Giffords, Mark Kelly Target Arizona with New Gun Control Group
breitbart.com ^ | 3/17/2017 | AWR Hawkins

On Thursday, Gabby Giffords and Mark Kelly announced their newest spinoff, Arizona Coalition for Common Sense, which will be in place to push more gun control on Arizonans.

The Arizona Coalition for Common Sense follows the Veterans Coalition for Common Sense, the latter of which is currently fighting for a gun ban for military veterans.

Giffords and Kelly’s main gun control group, Americans for Responsible Solutions (ARS), is currently fighting against national reciprocity for law-abiding citizens and is also fighting against deregulation of firearm suppressors for law-abiding citizens. As part of their fight against suppressors, ARS suggests the devices do not reduce noise enough to protect hearing while simultaneously suggesting suppressors reduce noise so much that “active shooters” can use them to avoid police detection.

Heads up MarkTwain. Guess the current puppet show isn't providing enough income for these two assclowns. But hey, at least they support the 2nd amendment right? Uh, except, wouldn't gabby "normally" be prohibited from firearms since she has a diminished mental capactiy?

The NRA has an article out exposing the anti-silencer propaganda from the ARS.

While they get some traction in Tucson and in Flagstaff, there is little support in the bulk of AZ. Down here in Phoenix, a Glock 19 is the state flower.

= = =

Can’t offend the hearing of snowflakes. They should approve.

Active shooter can bump them off one by one and the rave party noise will cover. They won’t experience panic or fear (just ‘merciful’ death).

Just remembered, Mao did not like the noise of guns anywhere near him or his different houses.

AZCDL is a very active 2A group that I’m a member of, I’m sure they’ll counter any astro-turf nonsense the kellys try.

Screw this clown Kelly.

SOB comes from Jersey where only gangbangers have guns.

Arizona is a place where kids still go up to Redington Pass on a Saturday morning to target shoot. And nobody gets excited about seeing a 14 year old carrying a 22.

Kelly is a FedThug who thinks only his little gang should have guns.

I'm tired of Mark Kelly "Mansplaining" everything.

Why doesn't Gabby step forward and say something for a change?

She just needs to go home and vegetate, along with her overhyped, low-intellect husband.

Instead of “targeting Arizona”, why not target the criminals or the mentally ill? I know, rhetorical question.

Kelly is an unindicted felon. That should change to indicted.

“Comprehensive immigration reform” always is always bull$hit for amnesty.

“Commonsense Sense” gun laws always means cutting 2A rights.

Spare me the BS Gabby.

Mark Kelly actually did help gun safety - in a crazy kind of incompetent liberal way.

...the store will return Kelly's money, donate the rifle to the Arizona Tactical Officers Association to be raffled as a fundraiser and make an additional contribution of $1,295 -- the value of the rifle -- to the Eddie Eagle GunSafe Program.

Gun store rescinds Mark Kelly's rifle purchase, questions his 'intent'

I think she has said that being able to re-use Mark's old astronaut pants is one of the things she enjoys about her new life as a sentient aubergine...

Any time you hear the words ‘common sense’ from these people, you know there will be none.
