Hey I know! Lets vote more GOP into office. That’s a real good plan. Because if we don’t the dems will...

Oh wait...

Of course he’s open.

They’re going to disarm us.

The Constitution only protects them - it doesn’t protect us.

Now go pay your taxes - your hard working government needs the money. :)

I am SHOCKED! He was great when he was my rep. I guess they all go down the sewer at some point.

We are in BIG trouble, because Gingrey has NOT been a "RINO". He consistently has rated between 92-100% on the ACU scale. Here is Nat'l Journal's 2012 listing of "Most Conservative" House members...

Most Conservative
1st (tie)
Diane Black, R-Tenn.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Stephen Fincher, R-Tenn.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Phil Gingrey, R-Ga.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Doug Lamborn, R-Colo.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Bob Latta, R-Ohio: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Jeff Miller, R-Fla.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Tom Price, R-Ga.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Ben Quayle, R-Ariz.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Dennis Ross, R-Fla.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)
Lynn Westmoreland, R-Ga.: 94.0 (Composite Conservative score)

Well, Jay Leno doesn’t “need” over a hundred cars and twenty motorcycles but that damned ‘free economy’ and nothing in the Bill of Rights to boot. And I’ll bet some of the motorcycles don’t have airbags ...
Idiots like this GA lawmaker are going to get a lot of us killed. And the “Why does ya need that ta hunt?” maroons.
Let’s make a deal: Keep your mitts off the 2nd amendment and we won’t give you a ‘bump-shooting’ exhibition.

Mr Gingrey....the high capacity magazines are not for target shooting. They are not for duck hunting either.

When Americans lose their powerful firearms, world order and tyranny is next. There are very very very few countries left in the world where civilians can purchase firearms freely. I think Switzerland is one of those few.

“I would be willing to listen to the possibility of the capacity of a magazine.”

To what purpose sir?
One shot will kill you. Does it matter that a magizine has more? Why?
Years back when I was in Law Enforcement one of my weapons was a Dan Wesson .357
With 2 speed loaders I could put 18 rounds on target at 25 yards before you could duck and cover.
When 20 children are murdered does it matter that it took 2 minutes instead of 3 minutes?
If no magazine had existed that held more then 10 rounds would those children still be alive? No.
Lets stop pretending that this is about guns and admit this is about people. That sir is why no solution will happen. As a nation we lack the will to do anything about people

Maybe he should go to a 3-gun shoot sometime and see how it works. I recommend that he stand downrange so he can get the full affect.

They should put warning labels on guns.

“Do not use in gun free zones”

problem solved.

Enough of this gun talk.

I need my AR to protect my freedom from you, Mr. Gingrey.

That’s all I’m going to say on this matter. This isn’t open for discussion.

What you think does not matter to me, I do not need you.

HIGH CAPACITY MAGAZINE BAN for WHAT?

If he wants to run on gun control as a Georgia Republican, he’s more than welcome. He can state his case to the people and if that’s they want, then more power to him.

Of course they don’t want that, so he’ll not only be on the losing side of the votes on this issue, but he’ll also be on the losing side of his next primary.

From the article: “There are some problems, and maybe these huge magazines even for someone who says, ‘look, I just use an AR-15 for target practice,’ but do you really need to be standing there shooting at a silhouette a shot a second or even quicker with that kind of weapon? For what purpose?” Gingrey asked. “I would be willing to listen to the possibility of the capacity of a magazine.”

Another leftist RINO, jockeying for position ahead of his next campaign cycle. Inaccurate political relativism on display for all to see.

The Second Amendment was crafted to confront and overcome the very same attacks on Americans’ God-given rights as we are presently witnessing. It has nothing to do with firing rate in practice sessions. It has nothing to do with hunting or sport shooting in any form.
It has everything to do with protecting America from an oppressive government like the one we have today.

Just another GOP person willing to “compromise” in order to not be demonized. Which we all know is stupid because they are already demonized.

...For what purpose?” Gingrey asked. “I would be willing to listen to the possibility of the capacity of a magazine.”..

hey a$$ clown when the police and military have high capacity magazines we should have them too, because 1 its our right and 2 we may need them to fight tyrants who’s mercenaries have them. even the playing field..no home team advantage.

now show me how many murderers actually used high capacity magazines as compared to hammers fists etc. should we limit people to one hammer or one arm? yeah thats the ticket make everyone cut off one arm...give me a reason not to allow them dont make me show you why I should have them...

he needs to get some response in large numbers right now...someone tell him for what purpose we should have them since he is too ignorant to already know.. let him listen till his ears start burning and smoke is coming out of them from information coming from constituents.

want a high capaity magazine ban, I want a high capacity ban on laws coming from Congress cut their days in half their pay in half and their tenure in half and restrict them to 10 laws per session....its obvious the more days and laws they pass the more damage they do so cut them off.
