If I understand the strategy, clown and his operatives in RAT Senate are going to use mob rule to enact these new “policies” - another campaign for the low information voters to swamp the Capitol switchboard with. The GOP will again cower under their desk.

I am not sure this is what the Founders had in mind for amending the 2nd Amendment.

“allow the rights”? Sorry, you asshats don’t “allow” rights. Your job is to protect our rights. What don’t you understand about that? How friggin’ arrogant. But fitting and in compliance with the rules and regulations of ignorant radical left wing extremists. If you aren’t doing your job as you swore to do then it is required of you to resign your position for the good of the nation. Yeah, I know, good luck with that happening.

Molon labe.

Share the lead.

"On the face of it, this statement is a violation of her oath of office. I move for her immediate impeachment and removal from office."

Sounds like the PRC ruling politburo wrote it.

Exactly. They had it all in 2009-2010 When did Hasan shoot up Ft Hood?

Where were you then, cowards?

If only that were true, Jim. We'd have less to concern us. Thing is, Feinstein is not an idiot, and she knows exactly what she's about. She has a vision of the world that demands the elimination of people like ourselves. She's just another will-to-power driven monster; a killer without conscience.

One of the very practical things we can do is look at all the Senate Blue-dog Democrats that are up in 2014. Regardless as to whether you have one of them in your state, we MUST band together and work to defeat every single one of them!

For some of us, we can give money directly to good, Conservative candidates.

To others, we can actually travel to neighboring states to physically help out removing those people from office.

Some people might be able to donate money and campaign time.

We must remove Democrats from office in 2014 and regain control of the Senate. This will all but render Obama null and void.

These traitors need to be removed. They are enemies of our Constitutional Republic. They no longer have any legitimacy to their elected offices.

Agreed 100%. traitors and enemies of the Constitutional Republic!

No, you evil hag, the correct statement is we cannot allow the strawmen of a few to override the rights of us all.

Your 90's AWB was found to be completely ineffective. Mass school shootings are up five-fold since the passage of "gun free zone" laws for schools.

Even if your statement that rights have to be sacrificed for the "greater good" (i.e., "safety") is legitimate, there is not one shred of evidence that anything you're proposing makes even one person safer.

Put simply, we cannot allow the political greed of a few contemporary political progressive elites to override the Constitutional rights of the American people thereby reversing 225 years of Constitutional history.

"Put simply, we cannot allow the rights of a few to override the safety of all."

So is she calling for the return of Jim Crow laws? I'm pretty certain that was the justification given for their creation.

>>The rights of a few...<<

I'm thinking 80 to 90 million gun owners would be a lil more than just a mere few.

Occasionally, liberals will make a mistake and tell you who they really are.

Rights vs. safety? For real?
I think it was Ben Franklin who said, “Those who would trade liberty for temporary security deserve neither liberty nor security.”

I do believe that this just may be the most blasphemous thing I have EVER heard uttered by a politician. WHY do we need "assault rifles" ? Why do we need "high capacity" magazines? Why do we need machine guns?

The answer is now quite clear. We have "representatives" who believe our rights should be nullified as they see fit. They believe the majority rules and the minority voice is meaningless to them. The have now PROVEN beyond the shadow of any doubt that individual sovereignty means nothing to them. They have shown us publicly that those tyrants we hope to never have to go to battle with are already in power and our fears are not only real, they are more than justifiable.

We NEED all of those things to fight back against Dianne Feinstain and her small army of communists. We NEED those weapons AND we want our machine guns back too, to fight against a white house that supports this shit, the same white house that controls the standing army. These people are not borderline socialists, they are outright communists... there is no longer any doubt. There is also no longer any doubt that our fears and arguments are not only theoretical, but real and most importantly, already in power.

If this does not lead to the utter destruction of the democrat party, there is absolutely no hope for us ever turning things around. The framers of our Constitution and republic wrote it the way they did SPECIFICALLY to protect us from Dianne Feinstain, and she DARES call herself "American".

Her statement is not only "reckless and dangerous" but a justification for every species of tyranny imaginable.

Our rights come from God. By Feinstein's logic, God is making us unsafe. Let that sink in for a minute.

Good. Now consider the lack of logic involved in the gun grabbers' central premise. My right to own a gun derives from my God-given right to self-defense, as recognized (not bestowed, mind you) by our Constitution.

In what manner does my right make anyone unsafe? If my intentions are honorable and my behavior appropriate, as the law presumes, the tools I choose to defend myself are of no concern to anyone, except perhaps to a person who means me harm, i.e., a criminal. And the proper use of such tools may also serve to make others safer as well, by providing them protection from people with bad intentions. And that, after all is what truly matters: intention, because inanimate objects don't employ themselves.

Simply doing what clown instructed her to do. He has an end-run around the GOP obstructionist Congress (/s) backup plan of issuing illegal EOs and sicking Erik Holder and Big Sis on the uncooperative population. It is his way of thumbing his nose at the GOP and Conservatives, and ALL gun owners and adherents to the 2nd Amendment.
