Along with a whole lot of other mischief with Petraeus this bizzy ditch is trying to push this.

[skeeter]

I hope the NRA drives ol’ Feinstein to the brink of dementia.

I mentioned this to a gun-loving buddy of mine the other day and he mocked me, saying it’s never going to happen, he’s bought plenty of assault rifles and he’s never had a problem.

But he didn’t remember the last ten year ban either.

It’s coming, this was entirely predictable.

[gundog]

Original AWB didn't make an attempt at obviuosly un-Constitutioal ex post facto ban.

Finally, even IF she introduces a bill, AND it passes the Senate, AND it makes it out of committee in the House, it still needs to pass the Republican held House before it makes it to the president’s desk. All of which is highly unlikely. Chances are, just like most crackpot bills, it will die a quick death in a Senate committee.

Not that Obamacare went this route, but I seem to recall lots of "ifs, ands, and buts" to reassure us that wasn't going to happen either .... and it DID. By hook or crook ... they'll keep trying to get it done and one of these day, they just might.

She can always quote Mitt Romney.

“Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts,” Romney said. “They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people.”

When asked by a reporter if he supported the renewal of the federal “assault weapons” ban and if he had spoken to the senators about it, Governor Romney replied that it was not really his job to lobby on federal legislation, but that he shared Senator Kerry’s and Senator Kennedy’s position on the issue!

The only way this could happen is if the Repub lose control of the HR in 2014. I know there will be some alarm and price gouging before then, but we are probably safe until then. Of course, we must be vigilant that the weepy-one does not cave on this issue before then.

[SirLurkedalot]

Come and take them.

Added to the banglist.

“By hook or crook ... they’ll keep trying to get it done and one of these day, they just might.”

You are absolutely right. How many other outrageous things have come to pass that sane people have said, “Oh, that’ll never happen.”?

[MissMagnolia]

Way too many ... Obamacare being a really horrible example.

[Travis McGee]

[Windcatcher]

That should go on billboards across America.

[absalom01]

Yup. Be ready.

[Obama_Is_Sabotaging_America]

Just wait until 0bama's push to CHANGE OUR FLAG starts. The reason? Puerto Rico as the 51st State! ..or is that the '58th State?'.. Before the CHANGE comes the EXCUSE for the CHANGE.

Will Americans tolerate some YELLOW in our new flag with a crescent shape too? YES.

[Travis McGee]

I have tons more.

And to think, in 1962 Thomas J Dodd and Emaual Cellar proposed the first federal law on common firearms.

1962; “We don’t want to an your firearms, we ONLY want to register handguns! Rifles and shotguns will not be affeCted”.

1964: “We only want to register all your guns, not ban them! Only Army surplus guns will be banned.”

1968: “We only want to register your guns, and ban “Saturday Night Specials” and small foreign handguns along with army surplus rifles!” (They got the ban on 5 shot army surplus rifles and handguns and small foreign pistols)

1970: “We only want to ban Saturday night specials! large handguns and rifles will not be affected!” There was also a call at this time to ban all private possession of ALL GUNS.

1976: “We only want to ban all handguns! Long guns will not be affected!”

1981: “The NRA should give up their handguns, and they can keep their rifles!”- Lee Grant on GMA

1984: “We must ban “assault Rifles, unsuitable or hunting!”

1989: George Bush bans import of foreign made “assault rifles:.

1992: Assault rifle ban passed by Clinton.

2000: first calls to ban single shot .50 cal rifles...

and so it continues.

They lied to us in 1962.
They lied to us in 1964.
TheY lied to us in 1968.
They lied to us in 1970.
They lied to us in 1976.
They lied to us in 1981.

AND THEY ARE LYING TO US NOW!

Once again “Thank you California!”

I hope this bitch dies from a long dibilitating disease. She can rot in hell with the rest of the traitors of this country.

I will weep no tears for ANY of them when they die.

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking:  What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?  Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?  The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!
