COMMERCE TWP., Mich. (FOX 2) - A town hall on gun control featuring Congresswoman Haley Stevens ended early as tempers flared and the arguing turned to shouting Tuesday.

It was held at the Multi Lakes Conservation Association and organizers were not transparent as to what the town hall would be about when it was booked at the club. Many of the members did not find out until recently that it would be about guns and gun control.

The video is a must see.

I have a Milford address, but I'm just outside this district. Multi Lakes is a very well known gun club in Western Oakland County. I think the democrats tried to sneak something here to try and split the firearms community. It didn't work. First term Rep Haley Stevens lost her temper, and showed that she was just another feminist democrat harpy with her claws out.

Hopefully there's a good candidate running there to make her a one termer.

"...organizers were not transparent as to what the town hall would be about when it was booked at the club..."

I don't know why, but this just made me laugh...I am sure being the Leftist she is, she probably thought if she could get everyone at the table, everyone could talk calmly and rationally, find a middle ground, and everything would be just hunky dory!

Most conservatives don't have any problem with rational dialog and middle ground, but in a cut and dried situation where they want to take away your Constitutional rights or murder unborn children, we tend to cut that person off at the pass.

And rightfully so. What a turd. Not transparent...it would have been a lot of fun to see if they HAD been "transparent"...:)

Hahahahahahaha...you are so right, that was “must see”.

The frikking idiots. Idiots. Then, to yell back at the people in the room.

That guy was a real leftist pussy “We are not opposed to guns, we are opposed to gun violence”

As if we are for gun violence.

They can’t even open their mouths without lying. They are opposed to guns...period.

Well, that was a wake-up call to all gun clubs — vet ALL events booked by outsiders.

Since they are out to overthrow the Constitution, let's get rid of the 5th, 6th and 8th amendments.

Then, we can try Democrats at 2am, arrest them at 3am, and set them over a slow fire, to die, screaming, at dawn... It's for the chirrens...

Hmmm? Isn't that what these Commie f#$ks want?

That would be Robert Wittenberg. He represents the Ferndale, Berkley, Pleasant Ridge, and Huntington Woods area. Gays, hipsters, liberal yuppies.

just another feminist democrat harpy

Yes, reminds me of that famous Helen Reddy song, "I am woman, hear me whine, complain, gossip and nag." It was a best seller.

"...rational dialog and middle ground..."

Yep! What is the "middle ground" between:

"Middle ground", arrived at through discussion or debate, is how the Nation lost the Constitutional Republic and, subsequently, nearly every "right" that the Nation was created to serve and protect...

In terms of the vast control of almost every detail of our private lives now under absolute control of the federal and state governments, one could make the case that the country was far more free and better off under King George than we are today...

Even the Soviets,at their peak of power, didn't have as much detailed control over the serfs as our government masters now have over us...

Yep! 100-years of "discussion and middle ground" have done lots of good... Just not for the serfs and their former freedoms...

“Passions ran high Tuesday evening, stifling the opportunity for meaningful dialogue on one of the country’s most pressing issues.”

No leftwad bucket of dog crap is capable of engaging in “meaningful dialogue.”

The principle is that no leftwad should ever have any voice in anything: never, ever, ever.

How can anyone have an “honest debate” when the dhimmicrats lie even to book the room?

My response would have been “you realize that we are going to kill you all right?”.

Meeting adjourned.

Just wanted to be sure-you do know I was describing that Leftist mindset there, right?

That is what THEY always think all the time-that all the ills of the world could be solved if people would just sit down and talk to each other.

They don’t believe that some people are just plain evil or bad.

Have read it twice, over the years...
