Probably not seeing the light, just looking at the floor and sensing something...

A Long Island Republican says his vote in favor of New York’s new gun-control law was a “mistake” and is now co-sponsoring a bill to repeal it.
Freshman Sen. Phil Boyle, R-Suffolk County, issued a news release on Friday detailing his change of heart, criticizing the way the bill was rushed through the Legislature. The new law—known as the Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act, or SAFE Act—violates the Second Amendment, Boyle claims.
From Boyle’s statement:
“The so-called SAFE act was a mistake. Its passage lacked transparency and public input and its wording was ill-conceived and of questionable legality. Lawmakers ...

“A Mistake!?”
Hey, Stupid! It WASN’T A MISTAKE, YOU DID IT ON PURPOSE!
Then, you found out that you were a DUMB F***K who stampeded with the rest of the herd of lemmings, right over the cliff!
Now, after the fact, you want a redo! NO MULLIGANS IN POLITICS AHOLE.
You are TOO STUPID to stay in office.
GOTCHER EFFIN “MISTAKE” RIGHT HERE!
bung faced mofo.
I met with him yesterday before the rally as did several other of his unhappy constituents. Nice enough guy. I hope he has gotten the message and will follow through. Time will tell.

Yep. When he's at lib and RINO events he can tout his vote for SAFE. When he tried to woo the conservatives he can (try to) point to this bill. Pathetic.
Precisely. This country doesn't need craven weathervane politicians! Those are Karl Rove politicians. It needs politicians with character who can be counted on to do the right thing.
Well, maybe not the hanging tree. Tar and feathering and riding out of town on a rail would be good, though.
Yet, despite all that, he voted for it. You think this indicates anything remotely approaching sound judgement on his part?
Could it be a blessing in disguise?
Maybe people will wake up and vote out these RiNO & Commie bastards.
That you, Karl?
Stupid A$$ F-——g Elitist Act, or SAFE Act
Why does every law have to have a convoluted acronym?
Consider WHERE the embattled farmer stood. Today they would stand while their “assault rifles” were confiscated and they would be jailed by the powers-that-be in Concord and Lexington, while liberals made fervent anti-gun speeches.
What an idiot.
The big angry town hall meetings that have been going on in NY the past few days is now spooking them.
Lance the Boyle.
“Another scumbag politician trying to have it both ways.”
Just where does the GOP dig up these turds? This is about as inept a man as you could find!
“bung faced mofo.”
Hey Çonrado, send this directly to this fecal matter. Just make sure you use a Zip code in his district. I do it all the time. For Texas congresscritters, I put down that I live in Swollen Groin, TX (thank you Jackie Gleason), but it still goes through!
It's New York. The state is covered with them.
Here’s his bio ( lawyer, Mc Lame supporter, member of the Sierra Club

Over my dead body. And I mean that in a very real and literal way.
I would love to see people in some state[s] tar and feather their elected congressman.
