McConnell: I might be open to “serious suggestions” on gun control after I meet with the FBI

All I have are the tweets from CBS right now. I’ll update with the full quote once it’s available.

In the meantime: W-w-w-what?

(TWEETS-AT-LINK)

I assume he’s thinking about limiting gun purchases by people on the terror watch list, which Democrats have been pushing for months. Hillary Clinton reiterated her support for the idea yesterday — as did the Trump campaign. When Bloomberg News e-mailed Corey Lewandowski to ask if Trump still believes what he said in November that “If somebody is on a watch list and an enemy of state and we know it’s an enemy of state, I would keep them away, absolutely,” Lewandowski said yep, as far as he knows. Defending the right of someone under suspicion of terrorism to buy a gun makes as much sense to the average voter, I’d guess, as defending child pornography, but there’s a sound reason for it. The list is enormous and there are no due-process protections governing who lands on it....

Howzabout you tell the FBI that if I slam a door to make a point to my wife, I lose my gun rights forever. Maybe an afghan saying jihadi things and traveling to the middle east, with a dad wanting to lead the Taliban should get the same treatment.

Damned congressfool.

The Turtle sounds just like the RAT he is, blaming guns,

I think if we can’t talk about the grossly disprportionate number of homicides committed by blacks in democrat controlled inner cities and radicalized islamics, we have nothing to talk about with regard to gun control aimed at law abiding tax paying citizens.

Those must be the more expensive guns you’re talking about.

If they did a hundred other things first that actually proved they care about the safety of citizens then I might envision a state that wouldn’t abuse such a list. Until then, no way. They can’t even bring themselves to profile the ones who visually are the most dangerous per actual statistics.

<< The GOPe intends to completely roll over, so as to leave Trump unsupported. >>

THAT seems to be the idea, exactly.

“Fundamental transformation” of our population means eventually our institutions will be also repopulated and transformed, and become easily open to doing away with the 2nd Amendment entirely. Then, the Constitution.

Start the clock. It seems to be a matter of time. Can we hold to November is even a reasonable question.

...Schumer: If they oppose closing terror gap, “@NRA will be in part responsible for every terror attack that involves a gun in this country....

How was this part of the “ terror gap?”
Explanations?

If McC were to step down, which the KY people won’t allow, he would be replaced by the head Volunteer, Lamar! Talk about new boss, same as old boss.

There has to be recourse to a Judge to get you off the list in 12 months time. Ted Kennedy was on that list.

After what Obama did with the IRS, and Hillary did on travel-gate, those are the last two scumbags I would allow to have this power. They would put hundreds of people on the list.

In retrospect, Alison Grimes would have been a better choice than this weasel.
