In the wake of the deadly Connecticut school shooting, Rep. Carolyn McCarthy said she has warned the White House “the gloves are off” if President Obama fails to act on the issue.

McCarthy (D-N.Y.), the foremost gun control advocate in Congress, said she spoke with White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew before Election Day and told him she will exert pressure on the White House to push for gun control legislation.

“I said, ‘Jack, I know the president is going through an election and I’m telling you after the election I’m coming out full force,’” McCarthy told POLITICO Friday. “I was just giving the White House a heads up that the gloves are off on my side and I was going to do everything I possibly could. … If that meant embarrassing everybody, that’s what I would do.”

Embarrassing the White House, McCarthy said, meant building a large-scale pu

This fall, someone here on FR noted that there were 600,000 licensed hunters in Wisconsin in 2011, and there were no hunting fatalities!!

Another on that same thread noted that if you compared those 600,000 licensed hunters in Wisconsin to ‘standing armies’ of the whole world, WISCONSIN would have the 6th largest standing army on the planet.

Hey Carolyn! You moron!!! There are already laws on the books that make killing people illegal! How’s that working out for you morons?!

[ridesthemiles]

Hell- it doesn’t even work in CHICAGO!!!

[ridesthemiles]

They didn’t ban Oldsmobiles after Chappaquiddick.

They didn’t ban Kennedys, either!!

Once TSA is unionized, they’ll be put in charge of school
“security” as well.

“it’s for the children”.

Hey McCarthy, if you’re so concerned about murders caused by guns, why aren’t you investigating F&F or Benghazi. Oh, that’s right, those guns were used by your side for your agendas, so those are okay.

[ridesthemiles]

It’s her only claim to fame.

She doesn’t have the IQ of the chain across my front gate.

Hey Carol, do us all a favor and work to end immigration and blacks-as-perpetual-victims. Your husband was shot by a racist black!

[ridesthemiles]

She’s a typical self-absorbed liberal. I understand her mindset: something bad happened to HER, so the entire nation should bend to HER will. It’s all about HER and HER suffering. F-— her.”””

F-— her.

She is already a 3 bagger. Don’t think anyone has tried to tap that in ages.

I just hope I can get my new shotgun ordered and on my boat before this war gets going.

Sweet, now open it and take another pic. ;>)

I’m not sure why they didn’t outlaw barrels, fertilizer and Diesel fuel.

"McCarthy was a registered Republican before her first run for Congress. She has "[d]evolved over the years into a reliable Democratic vote. She has voted with her party 98.1 percent of the time during the 111th Congress."[9]

Or timers. Or watches. Or matches.

"The police only serve to investigate the scene after the crime has been committed."

The Police also remove some of the bad guys, eventually. That's a big plus.

Now we see who the more ruthless one is.

[vox_freedom]

We've always known that Obama is anti-2nd Amendment, and just like with most other "controversial" matters he hides his true feelings in order to manipulate an outcome that can be favorable on his terms. Healthcare was a huge example of how he can be successful.

Now that he is a lame duck for four years he can act with impunity on his preferences -- wiping his feet the Constitution, ignoring Courts and "on the books" law and Congress when it suits him. He's already abused current drug laws, spit on the Defense of Marriage Act, and spent without legislative approval, implemented Don't ask, don't tell, etc., etc.
It's all gonna be brought forward and it is an aggressive agenda.

Watch out folks, it's gonna be a rough ride.

“”I can’t help but wonder if Rep. McCarthy owns a handgun of her own, or has a security person by her that does???””

I think it’s a pretty safe bet that the ones we’ll hear screaming the loudest for MORE gun control have personal security and the only way to shut them up is to single them out and call them on it!!

[Flycatcher]

bringing loaded firearms into an elementary school is aleady against the law

And so, if I'm not mistaken, is the murder of innocent children.

No, that's legal.

Codified by Roe v Wade.
