Today, Michael Bloomberg's coalition against illegal guns placed a full-page ad in the Washington Post urging lawmakers to prevent suspects on a federally maintained "terror watch list" from being allowed to purchase guns.
"500 mayors agree with the Obama and Bush Administrations: stop terror suspects from getting guns," the ad says.
It's also been an issue that Rahm Emanuel voiced support for back in 2007, according to this video clip.
"We got to make this a number one issue, as a test vote, and take it into the election." He added, "If it's between that terrorist list and the NRA, I know where America is going to be every time."
Bloomberg said closing this loophole was his "number one priority." He also offered the following description of why gun control critics have been so successful in blocking this kind of restriction: "There's extremists in the pro-gun movement who threaten our elected representatives around the country, whether they're in the legislature or executive side with working to get them removed, to remove them from office if they don't support the line that the extremists want: no reasonable restrictions, no enforcement of federal laws, elimination of federal laws. And we've just got to say 'we're not going to take it anymore.'"
Folks like these are planting the seeds for a new revolution.
OK, let's try this.
Stop stomping all over my Constitution and ruining my country. Stop implementing the Saul Alinsky playbook! Stop the Cloward-Piven movement! Remove the Marxist regime currently usurping our federal government! Throw out every last member of Congress. Throw out every scrap of unconstitutional legislation (starting with gun control), every unconstitutional policy, and every unconstitutional government department. I'm not going to take it anymore!
Yeah, that felt pretty good. Shout it from the rooftops. Or, if you're a traditionalist, every blog on the planet. All together now...

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
Another step on the road to our serfdom...
Except that the first word isn't "BACK"...
We may already be on that list.
Americans who want assault weapons should join the military. We have lots of them.

Well now, let’s see... what to do, oh what to do?
-We have been attacked by terrorists.
- Thanks to the failure of Obama and the dems, we are likely going to lose the war on terrorism.
-Our boarders remain wide open. Our country is being stolen before our very eyes.
-Obama and his corrupt administration are trying their best to break our country’s financial back and redistribute the wealth.
-Obama prayed with a white hating racist for 20 years.
-There are millions of desperate people out of work and there is no end in sight.
-My constitution say that I have a God given right to have my firearms.
I could go on and on about the dangers of the world we now live in.... we all know them all too well.
So to those that want my firearms... come and get the damn things, but ask yourself this before you do.
~~~~~~~~~~ Do you want them as bad as I intend to keep them? Are you willing to pay the price that I require?
Frankly, I almost look forward to their attempts to crush our constitution... let’s just get it over with once and for all. I am sick of arguing over something for which there is no argument.
It is already happening.
I don't think that there is anything that the GOP could do for next tears' midterm election for Congress that could hurt the rats as much as the rats going after Second Amendment rights of Americans and the NRA while the rats are giving acknowledged terrorists Constitutional rights!
Thanks for the ping!

500 is approximately 2.8 per cent of the total number of mayors.
I would be embarrassed to brag about only 500 mayors agreeing with my plan.
But it looks good in print on the front page of pravda.

Hmmm, a misleading claim on a paper with a misleading name. Fitting.
It is like 1994 all over again. The socialist Dems never learn, thankfully.
