Not only does Dingell support gun rights...
I recall hearing him doing a “purple-faced rage” speech about some
Fed law enforcement group (BATF?) and yelling at the top of his lungs
that they were Jack-booted Thugs.
I think this was a bit after Ruby Ridge and the Branch Davidian event.
(I do note there’s no mention of the jack-boots in Wikipedia article:
never speak ill of fellow Democrats/Liberals/Socialists/Communists, I guess)

“
An avid sportsman and hunter, he strongly opposes gun control,
and is a former board member of the National Rifle Association.
For many years, Dingell has received an A+ rating from the NRA.

Yeah, a DEM SAID it FIRST, a Repub, W's dad, repeated it, and the left-wing media assigned the ORIGINAL quote to W's dad, NEVER mentioning the dem who said it FIRST (like Rush calling Obama the "magic Negro", somethoing that was ORIGINALLY quoted by Al Sharpton, I believe).
As far as Henry "Nostrilitus" Waxman (the UGLIEST creature in congress) goes, it sounds as if the deck is being stacked in congress AND Hussein's admin for a BIG push for more Draconian gun control than we've EVER seen before, including 1968.
BUY GUNS, AMMUNITION, AND MAGAZINES NOW, WHILE YOU STILL CAN.
