In a statement to the press, the National Rifle Association says that it opposes the new legislation. “Expanding background checks at gun shows will not prevent the next shooting, will not solve violent crime and will not keep our kids safe in schools,” says the NRA.

Too many stupid people. It’s not about guns. It’s about people whose “value system” allows them to murder.

Are they talking about fixing up value systems in the Senate?

You forgot to post hte rest of what the NRA said- they said soemthign along hte liens of “They need to concentrate on MENTAL HEALTH Evaluations” ()Which as we have seen in NY means the govenrment WILL have the unfettered right confiscate guns WITHOUT due process and WITHOUT aNY actual mental health diagnosis- if you have been on anti-anxiety, anti-depressents, anti- psychotic drugs at
ANY pointi n your life- be prepared to have your guns illegally confiscated

And the NRA is su[pportign and pushign for this? Way to go NRA! Nice to know the people’s money has goen to protectign their constituinal rights- oh wait- no it hasn’t!

“This amendment won’t ease the pain ... but nobody here, not one of us in this great capital of ours in good conscious could sit by and not try to prevent a day like that from happening again,” Manchin told the press at today’s announcement.”

The only thing great about the Washington D.C. is its corruption & apatite for unbounded power.

As for the postulation that that they have “good conscious” I suppose only in the eyes of the devil.

Once again, the last thing the Senate wants to do is "solve" a problem.

They want problems to continue, even to get WORSE so they can take MORE freedoms and MORE money away from the public.

Less than a month after the Stimulus was passed, there were already rumblings that it wasn't enough. Same with the tax bills passed to avoid the Fiscal Cliff. And the same with this gun bill.

Nothing in the bill prevents another Sandy Hook, Repubs say. And the Dems agree. So it's obvious they'll be debating this issue again soon, and from a much worse position freedom-wise.

Guess that's how imcrementalism works, right?
