Dianne Feinstein announced Wednesday that shes re-entering the battle over gun control during her keynote speech to the California delegates to the Democratic National Convention.
Feinstein was president of the San Franciscos Board of Supervisors on what she calls that citys day of infamy in 1978, when a former colleague shot and killed Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone. Since then, Senator Feinstein has been one of the most vocal proponents of gun control on Capitol Hill.
She promised California delegates shed return to Congress to reintroduce an updated assault weapons bill.
At the delegates' breakfast, she said that, "Weapons of war do not belong on our streets, in our classrooms, in our schools or in our movie theatres."
Feinstein co-sponsored an assault weapons ban signed into law in 1994, which expired 10 years later.
Sounds like the Dalai Lama nailed this one. Feinswine = Epic Fail.
LOL!
Dianne was down the hall And armed when the shooting started at city hall and did NOTHING to stop it.
Why would she have done anything? She was going nowhere fast politically with Moscone in the way.
Him getting whacked A.) made her mayor, and B.) launched her political career in the big leagues.
Romney isn’t stupid. Should he get reelected in 2016 then there might be something to fear, but there is no way he would bring back the so-called Assault Weapons ban during his first term.

I seriously doubt Romney would sign the ban back into law during a first term. The consequences with the base would be too great.
The real danger would be Sup Court picks. This is why it’s so important to take back the Senate too. If the GOP can take the Senate, then Romney would have no excuse to nominate a ‘moderate’ (i.e. liberal) in the mold of Sandra Day O’Connor or David Souter. Doing so would risk a revolt like Bush experienced with Harriet Miers.
You think Romney would be anti-Second Amendment. Maybe he would, but then again maybe he’d surprise you. With Obama there is no question or mystery. He would sign the ban if presented to him. And he will appoint a fifth anti-Second Amendment vote to the Sup Court if he gets the chance.
Since they've already moved so far to the left anyway, they may as well let all the single-issue weirdos get their air time. It won't matter much when the dust settles and the Obamas are in exile, but they will have locked in the Neo-Commie vote.
” Dianne was down the hall And armed when the shooting started at city hall and did NOTHING to stop it.”
I wouldn’t want Diane in my foxhole.
She doesn’t know what an “assault weapon” is: Submachine guns are already banned.

File charges and throw this bitch in jail. If the above won’t stick, charge her with accessory to every murder her gun control idiocy helped happen.
I suppose she’ll be seeking another waiver on ‘assualt’ rifles for her husband, Richard Blum, the arms importer?? They got one under Clinton to import from china!
If you make yourself look like food, why the surprise when something tries to eat you?

All CC laws are redundant.
The 1st ammendment is enough.
It’s all about politics and control.
Oops, 2nd
I heartily support the Right of all people to carry/keep/collect/responsibly use any type of "arms" they wish to employ. Pistol, rifle, shotgun, laser, full auto, muzzle loader, sharp edged, lead filled, crew served, multiple impact re-entry vehicle, etc... that they can afford to buy and safely use without infringing on the equal Rights of others.
I just think it's stupid to look weak and an easy mark.
Back in ‘01, January in DC, had a taxi driver named Aziz from Afghanistan.
He said I have a tank, my neighbor has rockets.
So there is peace. Heh.
