--thanks--I enjoy learning something new every day--
"For 10 years, Weaver has been working to staunch the flow of "Saturday night specials" — cheap handguns that cost less than a good pair of sneakers and are the weapon of choice in the criminal milieu."
"Saturday night specials" are the cheap firearms that the poor use to defend themselves; no self-respecting crook would have anything less than a Glock, which are not "cheap" by any reckoning.
Study after study has shown that criminals want the very best tools they can get.
PS: It must really annoy Weaver that, after 10 years of her best efforts, the tide is turned against her, and the recent federal law protecting legitimate arms manufacturers and dealers is about to put her out of business.
Lying lawyer scum that she is.
Inexpensiev handguns are also the weapon of choice for law-abiding poorer citizens who can't afford more expensive pieces.
She is obviously a racist.
What an ellitist snob! Possibly even racist to boot. So poor people shouldn't be able to afford the tools necessary to protect themselves?
This whore needs to find another line of work.
Let's do a little thought experiment. Which one would have received more respect during colonial times, a guy that crafted good reliable guns, or a guy that sat in court all day flapping his gums in an attempt to abridge the rights of other people? Hmm, the gunmaker, you say. Case closed, throw Ms. Weaver out of court. She is fined court costs and opposing attorney's fees for taking up our time.
it's the Goldilocks theory of gun control:that's too small, that's too big, that's too powerful...leaving you with one that's juuuuuuuust right.(ie a spitball)
California doesn't have a gun lobby. If we did, we'd would be on par with real states for firearms rights. Can anyone honestly see this twit getting any kind of airtime in Texas? Nope, no anti-gun bias here...
