The U.S. Congress must examine what can be done to respond to the Connecticut school shooting, including possibly new legislation, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said on Monday.
Reid told the Senate he agreed with President Barack Obama that no one law could erase evil, but added we need to accept the reality that we are not doing enough to protect our citizens. The remarks were significant coming from Reid, a Democrat from Nevada who during Obamas first term opposed reviving a ban on assault weapons.
In the coming days and weeks well engage in a meaningful conversation and thoughtful debate about how to change laws and culture that allow this violence to continue to grow, Reid said. He said every idea should be on the table as lawmakers discuss how to keep Americas children safe.

No they didn’t support Reid. But, because he got them some federal pork to build a shooting range in Nevada, the NRA didn’t support Angle. They supported no one in Reid’s last election.
That is why I cancelled my membership with them.
“Dont forget, the NRA wrote the 1968 gun control act.”
I let my longtime membership in the NRA lapse a few years back. I give to GoA now and used to belong to JPFO, a membership which I need to re-establish.

Just sayin'. :)
All the .223 ammo on bulkammo.com is gone. Poof.
Interesting aspect. Why would Reid not back a revival ban on assault weapons during Zero's first term but now he does....?
There are some Nevada companies who specialize in the import of Russian AK's. They bring them in, customize them to meet US specs, and then market them.
Wonder if Reid had anything to do with them...?
Harry POS Reid ALERT!
The Bonus army died in a hail of gunfire from two companies of US Army Regulars, as anyone else that shows up in DC, armed, surely will too.
The Chinese have absolutely nothing on the US thugocracy.
SHOOTER 2.5 got the zot cannon for his bullcrap a long time ago.
Why doesn’t somebody ask the question why all of that education money spent doesn’t go into better security for the schools?
Uh Oh! Here goes Harry’s NRA rating to what it should have always been. He’s losing his pro-gun pose. The mask is coming off.
All of you who don’t already belong to the NRA please consider joining. It may not be perfect but it’s the only voice we have
Why do I get the impression that "The Second Amendment Is An Example of Natural Rights And Is Thus Inviolable" is NOT of the "all" options on the table?
Round up all the Children and put them in Camps. They will be safe there, really.
They can build them next to the Camps that hold the Evil Rich and the NRA Members.
I just wanted to touch base with him in case he was lurking or somethin...
Join the NRA, after having been a past member and witnessing their prostitution to Harry Reid and his ilk, knowing what would come of it at the time it was happening?
I've got to admit that recent events have moved me back into the "I'll think about it" category.
No promises.
You mean like in Libya?.....
No one knew he was a nutcase until he became one..........
