Who, exactly do you think these “American people” are?
We’re not behind do something even if it’s stupid.
EVERYONE for supposedly being so smart and ELECTED by equally smart voters s/ fail to see the real issues. This is such BS.
I notice I haven’t heard anyone mention “3d chess” in a few weeks.
Ya think? Any such law would deserve to be struck down on 10th Amendment grounds.
Bingo! Wonder why it is so easy for us out here on the sidewalk to understand that point?
a It is misleading, no doubt intentionally so, to describe this instance as the result of a gun problem simply because the fix does not directly involve guns, rather it involves upholding existing laws.
Why weren't existing laws upheld? Because a suspect president with a political agenda to "remake America" used taxpayer funds to entice national and local law enforcement to ignore those laws.
Sure hope you’re right & DJT is playing multidimensional chess as usual.
Meanwhile I’m inventorying my stash for any shortages. In some states the flying monkeys are already revving up on the runway to go out & start seizing guns. For the children.
He sounds just like Chuck Schumer discussing Trump’s Immigration demands.
In 2012, one presidential candidate received the endorsement of the NRA and one presidential candidate had previously signed an actual gun ban into law.
If you want Republicans to fight against gun bans, elect Democrats.
True enough, but why would he say such a thing in the first place? He’s ceding the argument that gun control policies work.
Sure, he can turn around and say later national reciprocity is a condition of any bump stock bans or whatever as he did with the wall and DACA amnesty in order to kill any gun control bill, but with DACA, at least you can make the logical case that you need to stop the problem from recurring. He’s already handed the argument away to the left. Stupid, unforced error.
I like that
Sad spectacle. Wobbly Trump in action.

This is where you demonstrate the art of the deal. Leverage is where it is at in negotiations. If the gun grabbers want anything, they have to first agree to universal carry. Trade them the bump stock for universal carry.
This is quite possibly the most lame thing I have ever read. Most people, 54% according to Rasmussen, blame the government for this shooting. Just so I am clear on what you think, when the government screws up you think it is acceptable for them to take advantage of their screw up and infringe further on our rights? Have you noticed that government screw ups have been a factor in many mass shootings lately?
“Isn’t mandating a state’s reciprocity with another state’s laws a violation of state sovereignty?”
That argument went out the window with the Obergfuq decision last year. States have to issue and recognize gay “marriages” - a fake, contrived right - through all 50 states, but exercising an actual, expressed right written into the Bill of Rights while roaming from state to state might make you a felon in the wrong place?
F that. We either have one set of rules, or there are no rules.
The President is right - it will never pass the Senate.
Why do you think it hasn’t been brought up for a vote?
I support National Concealed Carry Reciprocity but I don’t think it can be combined with background checks.
Even with a GOP Senate lots of bills passed by the House go nowhere.
...What compromises are the Rats going to give? If they want to take away 100% of the guns in private hands, but agree to take 50%, what have the Rats given up? NOTHING...
This is, has been, and apparently always will be the way it is when dealing with lunatic liberals.
When is Trump going to prove to us she is wrong?
Rest assured that if the democrats pass a gun law, the anti-gun forces will NOT just turn off the lights and go home. They will be planning the NEXT STEP in gun confiscation.
At some point you all are going to have to grow up. Your knee jerk “Do nothing” dogmas are not going to fly with voters any more.
Most around here don’t take kindly to “you all are going to have to...” do anything. It is, after all, FREE Republic.
Who are YOU to tell all of us we have to grow up?
What do you mean knee jerk “Do nothing dogmas”?
What will fly with voters is a thoughtful SOLUTION to the problem of school shootings—for most here, that means protecting children in schools like we do passengers on a plane—securing the facility, NOT GUN CONTROL.
Oh, and I don’t think there are ANY REASONABLE COMPROMISES WITH AGENDA-DRIVEN RADICAL LEFTIST GUN GRABBERS.
He never said he’d accept any DACA proposal.
He never said he’d accept any DACA proposal.
Trump certainly did during the televised talk regarding DACA.
