I'm still not relieved. Exactly what IS in their "gun control" bill, then?

Doesn't matter. For the next few years, the Dem message will be: "In 2013, we were this close to having an assault weapons bill -- but the Republicans blocked us at the last minute!!"

It’s something the red state ‘rats can vote on to infringe on our freedoms while saying they opposed the Feinstein bill.

Good question. I’ll wager money it doesn’t increase gun freedoms.

Dang it!! I had hoped to see, at long last, the definitive statutory definition of that illusionary “assault” weapon.

As with amnesty: Put out a scare scenario (Fienstien ban) then “Obay the will of the people keeping AWs, but ADDING a few more ‘little’ ‘common sense’ regulations.
Rinse
Repeat next year.
Incrimentalism. Anf the GOP is going along with it willingly.

The words “assault weapon” have been repeated ad nauseam. Maybe it didn’t work quite like they planned. So, no doubt they will ban guns using some other Orwellian terminology, instead, without giving us time to ask just what they mean by it.

The Democrat definition: Any firearm which, when the trigger is pulled, projects anything out of the barrel other than a flag bearing the word “BANG!”

I like the picture of Dianne Fineswine that Drudge has posted. That one eyed cyclops is really losing it.

No compromise, not on extended mags, nothing! Any Republicrat that agrees to ANY “compromise” should be singled out and hounded from office!

You got it. They always use distraction and slight of hand.
Just like a Con Artist.
They NEVER Do What They Say.
Or Say What They DO.
To: Falcon4.0
They always use distraction and slight of hand. Just like a Con Artist. You are probably correct. Fineswine was just the designated foil in this deception.
Now, she has to keep playing the part of the "victim" to keep up the lie.

I must have missed the Republican's counter-proposal to remove all unconstitutional infringements on weapon ownership....
