If anybody, anywhere up the "pole" in the GOP is reading this thread, they need to know, that short of our open border problem to the south, THIS issue (blatent attempts at reducing the Second Ammendment) will turn us against them.

...and yes...they DID (even the democrats) swear to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States. For any one of them to suggest we make it any less effective is a violation of thier oath of office.

Personally, I'm waiting for the day when the constituency of a given representative takes him/her to court and sues for failure to uphold an oath of office. It "seems" to be a very clear case. It would be nasty for certain (at the least the first time), but would open the eyes of all those who were thinking about violating their oaths afterwards.

Think about it....the left uses the courts where they "should" go through the legislative bodies. We ought to push them through the courts for what we can. Violation of oath of office should right at the top of the list!

...from ALL enemies, both foreign and DOMESTIC.

When will we get rid of left-wing, anti-gun, anti-freedom, anti-AMERICAN scumbags like Lautenburg, who is, in fact, nothing short of a DOMESTIC ENEMY of the people of the United States?

Maybe the courts will work, but I doubt it.

The 'ballot box' sure hasn't worked, given the fact that this piece-of-sh*t is from the Peoples Republic of New Jersey.

What's left to us, other than the 'cartridge box'?

Hope that never becomes necessary (when, and if, our government ever becomes the Tyrannical government that scum like Lautenburg would want, and that our Founders helped arm us against), but maybe one day it will.

It should be, but somehow the CongressCritters never got around to making it a crime and the Constitution irself protects them for what they do in Congress.

Art. 1. Section. 6. The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States. They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
