Yesterday, President Clinton outlined his proposals for more stringent, federal gun licensing requirements.

His proposals include:

* prohibiting non-citizens from buying guns; * requiring proof of residency, including photo id. and something like a utility bill in the buyers name... similar to what is required for a drivers license; * making cop killer, or Teflon coated, armor piercing bullets illegal; * and requiring child safety locks on the weapons of all Federal Officials to prevent these guns from ever winding up in the hands of children.

I applaud the President's proposals, and I will support them any way I can.

I only hope that he is right, and that Congress is finally ready to recognize that the vast majority of Americans want more gun control.

UH-OH! what are the Rooty-bots going to say??

And they didn’t tag Kamal a terrorist until 10 years later when the shooter’s daughter fessed up.
Law enforcement was so focused on gun control, they chose to accept the bogus cover story initially given.

SHHHHHHHHHH...................

While he was the “Republican Mayor” of New York City he appointed more than 60 men and women to the Civil, Criminal, and Family Court benchs. In all of those judicial appointment only two were Republican.

All of his other judical appointments were either registered Liberals or registered Democrats. As the “Republican Mayor” he had appointment power over more than 70 full commissioners in more than 50 City agencies, yet at no time during his administration did REPUBLICANS account for more than 10% of those appointments.

He even appointed Chuck Schumers wife as the City’s Department of Transportation Commissioner.

“Cop killer, or Teflon coated, armor piercing bullets”?


Hell, they’ve never existed, any more than “bullet proof vests” do.
What Rudy wanted to ban includes all reasonable hunting calibers. Was Rudy too ignorant to be aware of this, or just dishonest? How about both? Anyone who parrots Sarah Brady sure doesn’t deserve the presidency.

“I know many people argue that keeping and bearing arms
is a federally guaranteed right as stated in the Second Amendment of the
Constitution.But even in the Second Amendment, it refers to firearms in the
context of a well regulated militia, and well regulated is what we’re
trying to accomplish.” [Los Angeles Times, 9/27/06]

He said the exact same thing in 1997 as he is saying today.

That gun banning drag queen hasn’t changed one bit.

Citizens don’t need guns... only police should have guns (according to Rudy, that is)

Washington Post - Nov 29, 1993 (citing Giuliani’s appearance on NBC’s Meet the Press.)

New York City Mayor-elect Rudolph W. Giuliani said he advocated a “uniform licensing system with real teeth in it,” including background checks, lessons, tests and required renewals every two years to “show you’re stable, you’re healthy, you’re able

Great find. Too bad he didn’t correctly identify the problem as Islamofascism — he could have proposed citizen-safety-locks on terrorists.

Instead, a terrorist act was used as an argument to further infringe upon the rights of law-abiding citizens. It reminds me of a Mark Twain quote:

We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it - and stop there; lest we be like the cat that sits down on a hot stove-lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove-lid again - and that is well; but also she will never sit down on a cold one anymore.

~Mark Twain, Pudd’nhead Wilson’s New Calendar, Following the Equator, 1897

Rudy was fighting big inner city chaos, a far different problem from POTUS fighting terrorism. And you know it.

Maybe you missed this part:

and of the Federal Government to promulgate more rigorous gun purchasing requirements nation wide.
