Pelosi wants a *compromise* on the AWB

Recommended Posts

Seems Pelosi wants to compromise by making illegal to transport certain firearms across State lines.....

 

The ball is in Congress's court to craft a compromise in reinstating regulations on assault weapons, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) acknowledged Tuesday.

 

During an interview on ABC's "Good Morning America," Pelosi said that the Congress will work to find some middle ground between the previous ban, which expired in 2004, and the precedent laid by the Supreme Court in a ruling enumerating more concrete gunowners' rights last term.

 

"We have to find some level of compromise," Pelosi said, citing 53 victims of gun violence nationwide in less than a month. "And we have to rid the debate of the misconceptions people have about what gun safety means."

 

"Yes, it is," the Speaker said when asked if the ball is in Congress's court now that Democrats control the White House. "And we are just going to have to work together to come to some resolution."

The Speaker also expressed displeasure at the attachment of a gun rights provision to legislation that would grant Washington, D.C. a voting member of Congress.

 

"Right now, we have the debate in Congress over the District of Columbia wanting a vote on the floor of the House, something we all want. That's a civil rights issue," she said, pledging to find "middle ground" on the issue. "And, yet, they want to put a gun

Can someone please just as Pelosi if she would support NRA Eddie Eagle Gun Safety classes being taught in every school, since she is so interested in gun safety?

So now they're going to stop humping on dead kids, their families, wounded politicians who need to have their heads examined and start to use monthly and annual deaths to justify their mis-guided, gun-grabbing proposed legislation. Screw 'em. If the don't stop, they'll wind up with nothing. That wrinkled old sea hag needs to get laid.

Note the shift in language from "handgun control" to just "gun control" to "gun safety."

 

In my opinion, when people keep changing the name of something over time, it's because the thing is inherently undesireable, so any name gets tainted with use and eventually needs replacing.
