You mean the next president?

Where did you get this animated gif of me?

Hi Artie!!!

So this is how liberty dies... with thunderous applause.

Obama's presser is getting the gun owners with actual gun rights supporting politicians out in force against an AWB. Places outside of the NE USA, or coastal CA, away from the Feinsteins, Liebermans and Bloombergs. The 'red state' folks for lack of a better term are getting woke up. AWB2 is NOT a done deal, people MAN UP!

No, Diane Fienstein was very proud on Sunday to say that she's been crafting this bill for a year. This isn't going to be a re-hash of the '93 bill, it will be a whole different animal.

 

On a related note, the fact that DiFi has been working on this bill and NOW she will introduce it suggests that she was merely waiting for a big enough pool of blood to stand in to drum up support. She's a f'ing disgrace.

 

+1. Great post.

I can't see the NRA rolling over on mag capacity, they have said repeatedly that 30 round AR mags would qualify as "in common use" under the Heller ruling.

 

If they are going to concede anything (and I'm not convinced they will), it would be eliminating FTF sales or at least requiring NICS check for them.

 

My prediction is that they are going to push for mental health care reform.

If the NRA compromises to much, trying to "not look like assholes", it's membership will plummet and their lobbying power will be gone. Bend over once = bend over always. The "compromise" worries me very much.

 

If the AWB ends up being no more than the last one, I'll consider staying a member. If it's worse, buh-bye NRA for me. I've learned I can't trust other people to look out for my concerns. There will be point no being a member of a virtually powerless (apparently) organization.

 

I haven't given up on them yet, but I've not been happy with their "compromising" in the past, so I'm not expecting much.

 

In the end, it won't matter.
