'We are raising a nation of young people...with PTSD': Rep. Gainey appeals for statewide ban on assault weapons
(The Post-Gazette appears to be trying to compete with the Daily Mail for title length)
‘We are raising a nation of young people...with PTSD’
That’s the plan, isn’t it?
If not weapons, then global “warming”
Anything to terrify the kids into being dedicated to The Party, and slaves to the state.
Ed Gainey is a smelly Obama
It is the media tramentizing everyone
They’re coming for our guns, Pennsylvania Edition.
Combined PING! and BANG! (for the bang_list).
It’s amazing how they allow gangs to rule Chicago, but place the blame for PTSD on the guns, and not hoodlums.
I realize Gainey isn’t there, but by example Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation. How did that stop gang violence? Well, it didn’t.
Now he wants more laws for Pittsburgh that hoodlums won’t abide by.
The goal is clearly an unarmed populace so that the local to federal government can walk in and abridge our rights at will.
Gainey is another person that can’t think himself out of a paper bag.
My hope is that we take the House back and issue some laws that deny cities, counties, and states the right to infringe on OUR Second Amendment.
I also want a national conceal carry no city, county, or state can object to. Watch the crime drop then. The Left will be totally flummoxed.
“It’s for the chilluns!”
There must be a ton of lemmings in Lincoln-Lemington.
Wait, he's actually their medical examiner? (He's certainly not a deer hunter.)
Maybe not, but what does that have to do with the second amendment?
The lawmakers also said hunters in Pennsylvania don’t need the added firepower of semiautomatic rifles, including AR-15-type weapons,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wow, that’s a whole lotta stupid in one sentence.
First, unless it is the rare .50 caliber AR-15 with the high magazine clip, a .223 is not allowed for deer hunting around here.
Second, a .223 round is just a powerful coming out of my Ruger #1 single shot as it is in a semiautomatic.
My AR works well shooting a running coyote with my laying hen in it’s mouth.
I need my AR.
It is a tool like a hammer.
Until they convince the coyotes to leave my chickens alone, leave me be.
Every single shot, lever action, bolt action, and semi auto rifle on the market today were fashioned after a military firearm.
Is it too much to ask for some on the left to kick their politicians in the ass and educate them about firearms.
They are semi-automatic rifles intended for the civilian market, and, according to FBI statistics, ALL rifles, including semi-automatics, cause fewer deaths per year than hammers, fist, feet, etc.
So pound sand, Gainey.
Really? Such information is paid for by the taxpayers and should be made public. Is it?
Another idiot lawmaker who thinks the 2d Amendment "allows" us to hunt.
