I'm surprised this poster on MGO's site got a response. I'm usually ignored. LOL.
MIKE ROGERS IN 06!!!!!
what happened to john engler up there ?
Is this really from a United States Senator? How could someone that stupid rise to such a prominent position?
And, BTW since when does a U.S. Senator call herself "Debbie"? It sounds like a volunteer aide at the local library.
You just drop one of them semi-auto sears into your MG42...
What a Nitwit!
Debbie Does Michigan?
I don't store my semi-automatic machine guns on the street. I keep them next to my nightstand.
Are they that stupid? Yes, most anti-gunners wouldn't know a pump shotgun from a M2 and since thaty know that "guns are bad" then all guns must be bad.
Do you think Mike Rogers has enough state recognition? I think someone like Candice Miller, the former Secretary of State, has the recognition and, she was very effective in cleaning up the mess that Richard Austin created. Most people who visit the DMV see a marked improvement from what we were used to. But I do agree we have to find someone to beat Stabenow and Granholm.
Not stupid, just ignorant. They will counter this (if the gaffe is reported) by utilizing Clintonesque Weasal Words.
"All guns are machines, so all guns are machine guns."
But you are right of course; semi-automatic means "not a machine gun", since each round must be fired by pulling the trigger, as opposed to fully automatic, which is a machine gun which will fire a burst with the trigger held down.
As you probably know, the U.P. is one of the last northern areas where everyone is heavily armed. I have five semi-automatic weapons in my house, and I believe that I am under the average for the Upper Peninsula.
And I state this wishing that any Federal Government lurkers may be apprised of the state of things here.
By last count I have 12 firearms in my house, which I believe is also low for the average U.P. household. Violent crime up here is virtually non-existent, due to the holding of firearms in such numbers by citizens of the U.P. Another anomaly is that many U.P. residents have been packing handguns for years, despite laws prohibiting CCW, laws which have been recently overturned. Every cop I know up here supports CCW, despite what was written in the article.
Every criminal who has had a thought in his head about committing a burglary or a carjacking in the U.P. wonders whether or not some Yooper will put a 357 round through his head, and this has been the case for years; hence the low crime rate.
We ain't Wayne County. We don't screw around up here, and we're ready and willing to kill burglars and carjackers.
This might be a thread for the HellGlock picture.
Thank you . . .
. . for contacting me regarding the renewal of the federal assault weapons ban. I appreciate you taking the time to communicate your views with me.
As you know, the assault weapons ban of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994 expired on September 13, 2004. Senator Dianne Feinstein has introduced the Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act (S.1034), which would make the ban permanent.
Similarly, Senator Frank Lautenberg has introduced the Assault Weapons Ban and Law Enforcement Protection Act of 2003 (S.1431) which would increase the scope of firearms defined as assault weapons, and also make the federal assault weapons ban permanent.
Currently, both these bills are pending in the Judiciary Committee, of which I am not a member. I share your concern about protecting second amendment rights and assure you that I will keep your strong views in mind if this important matter should come before the Senate for consideration.
Thank you again for contacting me. Please feel free to do so again if I may ever be of assistance in the future.
Sincerely,
Debbie Stabenow
United States Senator
Surely everyone knew she was stupid - isn't that you elected her?
Bump for the soon to be number three dem.
