So does this mean we head to the nearest WalMart and stock up again?

If they don’t have the stones to face armed constituents, its time for them to retire.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Apparently, the RATs in the House haven’t heard that they lost the November election.

[HKMk23]

Gun-rights groups said they believe McCarthy’s bill is unlikely to pass in a House controlled by Republicans.

It'd be even MORE unlikely to pass in a house controlled by AMERICANS.

[Scanian]

OK, GOP freshmen, earn your pay! Deal with these threats to the Constitution.

[Steely Tom]

Threatening a federal official. I can't wait to see how that language plays out in practice.

[ExTexasRedhead]

I hope We The People note that any politician with a D next to their name wants to steal our freedom and put themselves in as dictators.

[CedarDave]

If Sheriff Dipstick had been as serious about doing his job as he has been demonizing Rush, talk radio and Fox News, he might have discovered Loughner was threatening people, including the Congresswoman.

However, thanks to our current way of handling certifiable nutcases, they are as likely to be out on the street as in an institution. Can’t have their civil liberties violated, can we. When I lived in Phoenix 50 years ago, the answer was 24th and Van Buren, the state mental hospital.

[cripplecreek]

Yeah I’m sure the nutjob would have changed his mind about shooting Gabby Giffords. After all he wouldn’t have wanted to break the law or anything.

[ZULU]

Carolyn McCarthy is certifiable. In addition, she is a Brady Puppet.

The other guy, well, I guess he would have approed of the Alien and Sedition Acts.

Don’t take this for granted. There ARE anti-gun Republicans.

Write your congresscritters and ureg them to oppose this.

[Winged Hussar]

“Among the symbols Brady seeks to ban was one posted on the Internet by former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin that showed Democratic congressional districts, including Giffords’, with the crosshairs of a rifle scope superimposed over them. “

It would make MORE sense to ban the name Lee, noting:

(1) Lee Harvey Oswald
(2) Ronnie Lee Gardner
(3) Jared Lee Loughner

and also middle names, noting that every deranged mass murderer (e.g. John Wayne Gacy) seems to have one.

[13Sisters76]

Never let a good crisis go to waste- right?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Interesting that the Fort Hood shooting by Moslem fanatic Major Nidal Malik Hasan that killed 13 US troops and wounded 30 others was not met with a similar reaction.

They must approve of Americans being killed by Moslems. It's only when they are killed by non-Moslems that there is a problem.

[Deo volente]

Rep. Robert Brady, D-Pa., will introduce legislation that would make it illegal to uses threatening words or symbols or incite violence against a lawmaker or federal official.

How would one define "threatening" for the purposes of the legislation? This is a vague word that opens up all sorts of possibilities for prosecutors, and all sorts of grief for freedom-loving Americans. Would ALL political speech that incorporates war or military metaphors now be outlawed? Who decides what is "threatening" language?

What about a candidate who talks about "targeting the seat" of an opponent? Or,"we have him in our sights, now go out and get him!". I could go on and on.

[TruthConquers]

IF the left doesn’t aim this AT THE PRESIDENT,

Then,

they,

ARE

HYPOCRITES!!!!!!

Lying sacks of #$^%$&%^#&%$#!!!!!

[Sacajaweau]

Billions of filthy and violent and I hate whitey videos...and we simply put an adult sticker on them.

Chicago violence Wins!!

Then there's Reverend Wright....

The there's "They bring a knife, we'll bring guns"...."Get in their face"

[texmexis best]

Run the clock out on this. It wouldn’t protect anyone.

All that I can say and will continue to say is:

Molon Labe MF’ers!

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances." - 1st Amendment

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." - 2nd Amendment

I wonder what part of shall make no law or shall not be infringed they don't understand? Or, could it be that they just choose to ignore it???

Maybe we need another Congressional reading session.
