The Wall Street Opinion Journal alerted readers to this story today.

[Politically Correct]

It's difficult to stomach so many lies and misrepresentations in such a short piece.....bump.

[bvw]

This is "a salvage what we can" defense. The Constitution-wreckers, fem-socialist whinners and gun-grabbers are back on their heels and in for worse -- and they know it.

[Lazamataz]

This guy is such a lyin' sack. Claims he believes in the Second Amendment but has NEVER voted pro-gun. NOT ONCE.

[techcor]

What kind of idiot believes "the original intent" of the Constitution is found over a hundred years after it is written?

[Billthedrill]

This decision wasn't made after discussion, debate, and open dialogue. It wasn't made in consultation with Congress and the states.

Hmm, Chuckie, sounds like what were saying about the Clinton administration's expansion of the Assault Weapons ban. What goes around...

[aomagrat]

Not to put too fine a point on it, but if New York City had Arizona's gun laws, Times Square would look like the OK Corral.

[Hard Case]

I couldn't even finish reading this raw sewage. I wouldn't even let that jack-ass (Chuckie Feinstein Boxer) drink out of my toilet.

[spodefly]

"But I'm also of the view that there are limits on those rights. Just as you can't falsely shout fire in a crowded movie theater, you can put restrictions on who can own guns and how, when, and where they may be possessed.

I wonder which part of " ... shall not be infringed" Schumer doesn't understand.

[sport]

There is a fishhook in there somewhere.
If schummer supports it, it is not good for us.

There is an old saying that goes something like thus: "Beware of a Greek Bearing a Gift"

If schummer is supporting it, look out, things are not as they seem!

[Gritty]

Schmuckie Schumer is a Putz Head.

But he also is a canny politician who sees the handwriting on the wall and wants to put forward this cramped version of the 2nd Amendment so he doesn't look so abysmally stupid when his real views get rammed down his miserable, chicken-necked throat by the Supreme Court.

Just because he is a fool doesn't mean he wants to look like a fool. But, a fool he surely is!

[Redbob]

""Not to put too fine a point on it, but if New York City had Arizona's gun laws, Times Square would look like the OK Corral. And that's not OK."

Not to put too fine a point on it, sir, but I've been to the OK Corral, and I wouldn't give you one Tombstone, Arizona, for 10 Times Squares!

[MileHi]

...you can put restrictions on who can own guns and how, when, and where they may be possessed.

And every time he gets a chance to vote he votes for no one, no how, no time and no where.

Lying peice of crap.

[T. P. Pole]

How can somebody be so close to the truth and yet miss it by so much?

[MileHi]

Nonsense.

[Leto]

Well let's see, Chuckie the rat has reinterpeted the advise and consent rule tradition when it comes to approving judges but throws a hissy when the administration reinterpets the right of an individual to own arms, ROTFLOL

Hey Chuckie, put some ice on it!

[Charles Martel]

This guy is such a lyin' sack. Claims he believes in the Second Amendment but has NEVER voted pro-gun. NOT ONCE.

Agreed... he is the heir to Metzenbaum's anti-gun bile.

Schumer is only pro-gun where political contributions are concerned - I still won't own a Colt because of Donald Zilkha's donations to Chucky.
