No they didn’t. At best they put a little hot sauce in the Vaseline.

[Mr. K]

Oh and jes’ don’ throw is in dat ol’ briar patch too, that would be jes’ awful...!

Alan Gottlieb, too clever by half.

[Vendome]

Ha e no idea what that idiotic popup was on their website.

Note to self:

Don’t go to WA Times again

"Mr. Gottlieb said that despite claims to the contrary, the amendment that would expand checks to sales online and at gun shows is “not registration”

A distinction without a difference. BATF computer transaction records remain in cyberspace decades after the gun purchase is cleared, just waiting for the data mining necessary to commence confiscation. The law abiding citizen is punished, and, through administrative "fees" must pay for the means by which this punishment is delivered. The criminal continues to obtain and retain his weapons, unfettered by "the law." Somebody tell me again, why is this comprise a "victory" for gun owners?

[Timber Rattler]

Not buying it.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I guess I haven’t figured it out yet either.

Just a different set in the Washington DC Kabuki Theater.
Or maybe just a different skit in the Burlesque that is Washington DC. Strippers are next, then we get the final blackout. At that time we will know what they know now.

Rush Limbaugh was right last week when said that we don't need more laws. He pointed out that the murderer of all those children broke the laws-many of them.

Rush was correct.

All of these so-called law makers have imo failed to protect the innocent.
Imo they need to realize that they have enabled mass murderers by restricting legitimate gun owners ability to protect themselves, and share the blame for things like this when they happen.

Of course none of them have the balls to stand up and say so.
Instead they run their little dog and pony shows, and work to create even more laws that will further help another mass murderer.

Shame on all of them that allowing this happen. They're a bigger disappointment than they realize.

Okay, this is becoming very confusing to follow as what is the true wording of the supposed new law. So, we have a good bill now and the left were snookered into making a stronger bill. Does the physician still have a role in this. If this is true, why did he tip the leftist off. If the bill is solid, why did the NRA put out a public statement they were opposed to this bill while having NRA representatives in the meetings with the politicians involved. NRA, in on the snookering? It seems we all are being pushed in a political box of who to trust. Wouldn't it be something, if this bill were stronger though to be honest I wish they never had their hands on the rights to the Second Amendment. I am so sick of these gangs of 6/8 deciding what they know best and worrying me and all others.

[Little Ray]

Apparently they missed the tendency for the current regime towards “selective enforcement.” The Obama will only enforce the parts they want to, and will ignore the rest.

[Gator113]

If the words “shall not” appear in any of these laws, I will ignore them.

[Atlas Sneezed]

Someone please tell me the current “problems” this bill solves in a way that benefits gun owners.

[moovova]

The basic question...

Was the noose loosened or tightened (even if just a little bit)?

[zeestephen]

What bunk!

Whatever “concessions” this man dreams he has written into the law will be ignored by Left Wing prosecutors, unenforced by Left Wing police chiefs, overruled by Democrat judges, prohibited by bureaucratic agencies, challenged by Blue State governors and Blue State Supreme Courts.

Can someone explain to this guy that the Democrat Party has one, and only one, goal - the political destruction of Conservatives.

This man is a political illiterate!

[Darren McCarty]

Gottlieb’s usually good, but I don’t get this at all. I read the amendment, and frankly, I think it sucks. It’s contradictory, and the good parts have so many loopholes you can drive a truck through it.

[Billthedrill]

“We win rights back like crazy.”

Hogwash. Enumerate them or shut the hell up.

What has become clear in all of this is that certain political representatives have come to regard our most fundamental Constitutional rights as suddenly negotiable, proper subject matter for back-room dealing and alcohol-fueled horse trading on luxury yachts. That's disgusting enough when it involves political pork such as highway funding; here, however, we're in what a certain Texan friend of mind calls "hanging territory."

It is a mistaken assumption that nominally conservative members of the ruling class will act like anything other than members of the ruling class. This topic never even should have come up. I am not particularly grateful for these people bartering our rights and "winning", if in fact they have; I'm furious at them for bartering our rights in the first place.

[[“we snookered the other side — they haven’t figured it out yet.”]]

Yep- mr brilliant ‘snookered’ them alright- ooops- there’s still time for the left to catch on ESPECIALLY after you spell it out to them- Doh!”

[Tzimisce]

Sounds like another liberal front group (which would be why I’ve never heard of this bunch).

I’m sorry - how does massive new oversight and regulation make things more free?
