Rememeber, it was said Brady would not be passed either. But it got the midnight vote when no one was watching and we got the shaft.
My biggest fear is some real idiot shooting up a school/post office/mall/workplace with an AW and then the cry to ban them, PERMANANTLY, will be too loud to overcome.
I hope I am wrong.
Instead of a real idiot, they will need to arrange for it to be done by AQ or other Islamic fanatics using assault guns purchased without a background check at a gun show. They'll kill several birds with one stone that way. You gotta remember: The Republicans are in charge now and pubbies are smarter than rats; they can co-ordinate more efficiently.
