So the aristocracy thinks they can travel in a bubble and make us felons as they pass buy.
It isn't just the democrats taking away our freedom people.
It's time to see what the newly elected members of congress think about this.

KneeJerk reactions is no way to govern a country. Especially a country that prides itself on its freedom.

"Kings legislation got the cold shoulder from Boehner and other Republicans after it was announced." Good going, guys. Keep standing firm for The People.

Way to go John! Put a decisive end to this knee-jerk BS from weak and ineffective leaders.

Yup, I just checked. It's still in the document:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

This wasn’t a Muslim attack on some worthless soldiers (like at Ft Hood.)
This was an attack on the Ruling Class!
Don’t you ungrateful peasants understand that?

It is already against the law to shoot people, including politicians. Adding the 1000 ft barrier isn’t going to do anything more.
If a perp is determined to commit an act, a law of 5 ft or 5000 ft isn’t going to matter.
Rep King is just trying to jump on the political bandwagon.

King, who has previously called for the removal of illegal guns from the streets, made the announcement alongside New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, one of the nations loudest voices for stricter gun laws. Um, pardon me for stating the obvious but... If the guns you are worried about removing are already "illegal guns from the streets..." then how is passing another law going to help? By making them "more illegal" ??? Maybe double-secret-probation illegal? {snort}
Instead of more laws that turn more Americans into outlaws, how about concentrating on the actual criminals themselves. Firearms don't just jump up and do bad things all on their own. Instead of coddling criminals and worrying about their right to 24x7 cable, air-conditioning, unlimited exercise equipment, etc. etc. lets make prison as unpleasant as possible and an actual deterrent to crime.

Boner might turn out better than many here think.
As for King, he needs to get his head right.

I am optimistic (cautiously) that Boehner said this. Hopefully not tearing up.
I hope he stands firm on this. I think we need to pray that God puts good strong, sound-minded people around Boehner and help him stand hard and fast against the libs and the press. I would rather not have to keep referring to him as “No Balls”, I would rather refer to him as “Big Balls” Boehner.

Rep. Pete King (R-N.Y.) announced plans Tuesday to introduce legislation prohibiting people from carrying guns within 1,000 feet of members of Congress. What happens when a member of Congress visits a shooting range?

Banning law abiding citizens from carrying guns within 1,000 feet of the feds will guarantee that the only people who may carry near the feds WILL be either criminals or loonies.

Roving, random felon bubbles.
Logistically impossible. Not feasible. You can’t just unknowingly be turned into felons because someone else gets close to you and you don’t know they’re within 1000 feet of you.
As my chef buddy said, “FORK THAT!”
