as i read this article, it appears to say that it's not quite dead, it's just not part of the overall package, which means it STILL has a shot at being passed into law..

additionally, they plan to vote on magazines...

the AWB, and the mag legislation should just be binned...infringement is infringement...there are no degrees, and no "reasonable restrictions"...

i also find it funny that this stupid cow keeps referring to an AR15 as a "weapon of war"...god, what i wouldn't give, to be able to debate this idiot live, on national television, for an hour or two..

i've seen the exchange between cruz and feinstein posted here several times, in different threads...has nobody noticed that piece of crap, durbin, saying that "none of those rights are absolute"? i mean, i honestly find that to be one of the most disturbing and dangerous things i've heard come out of an elected official's mouth in a long time.... he should seriously lose his senate seat for that...

why is a victory to have these kinds of weapons in existence?


it is not a victory...


if we are to evolve as a species we need to stop with the animal like thoughts and behaviors...


there are tribes, groups, peoples on this world who have no need/ for "assault weapons"


in my opinion the tea party people are the lowest consciousness group in politics, they are like rednecks on crack in a bad way, lol

sorry, but truth is truth...

please wake up...

you will waken soon and throw that yoke off..

I know, I was once pro-war, machine gun loving, etc.etc...

then I woke up one day and had no desire for such things...

now my days are full of love & light...magic, good times


your thoughts do create your reality and who you choose to be and who you choose to be with and where you choose to live...

we are all spiritiual beings living as humans for this time, time to learn,,,

to remember...

twenty three from 1850-1900, one was done by native americans where they showed up and killed a bunch of kids, then a few where students tired of being spanked and or caned showed up and shot a few of their teachers,then a few where kids shot each other accidentally or intentionally(kids used to bring their pistols to school) then a few jilted lovers and failed engagements leading to shootings.and in 1868 a teacher shot a kids parent then the parents kid poped the teacher so yeah they did happen but nothing on the scale of modern times en.wikipedia.org... so its not a new phenomenon but something that has always happened but of note in relations to your comment most of those were back east with a few in ca so even then the school shootings wernt exactly happening in the "old west" but they did happen back in the day

Just because you feel the need to have a knee-jerk fear reaction to things you obviously have no understanding of, don't expect the rest of us, who actually have the capability of being rational to bend to your whims and those of your ilk.

We're all spiritual beings blah blah blah !
Your thoughts create your reality blah !
Truth is truth and you wouldn't know if it hit you between the eyes.
Big gigantic problem with your cockeyed free ascending spirit ideas:

The only ones they want to keep weapons from, are the people who keep getting met with brutal, merciless, violence, every time they exercise their constitutional rights. Sure we had a revolution, but as far as exorcising the bill of rights and promised liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Tyranny really hasn't missed a beat all the way back to the french revolution. And it is way passed time to take some heads again.

They know it themselves Einstein ! That's why they don't want you having a weapon.

And how do you expect to throw that yoke off? By putting a dunce hat on Obama and his ilk and putting them in time out? I swear...when did humanity start contradicting itself so heavily. Don't like guns? How great for you, but that does not detract from the fact that until the paradigm changes (which it will not btw), they are a necessary evil. You might as well pull a rock over your head and isolate yourself if you think anything is going to change without the application of force.

What good would that do? The people that would commit mass murders could just take the gun out of their locker, and the people that don't commit mass murders wouldn't need the locker in the first place since they're not a danger to anyone.

You know, I would love to live in a Utopia-type civilization where there were no weapons and everyone grew/raised/ate food from their own land and had a fresh well on site. Natural resources were free and there were no misunderstandings in communication. And most importantly, nobody contained the will to rule over others.

However, that last part is the crux. As long as there are those that wish to rule over others and impose their will based on ego and greed . . . there will be a need to defend ourselves against these monsters. So, if you want to start the revolution, simply convince the leaders of world to give up their positions of power and means to secure it and join you . . . at that point, I'm sure the rest of the world will follow.

As for advancing as a species . . . evolution tells us that higher intelligence comes in the form of higher brain function. Higher brain function must be fueled with a large amount of energy, in the form of food. The only way to get the required amount of fuel is to eat other living things. The amount of fuel needed to keep our primative brain (if we are not advanced) going and continue to develop intelligence is large and is significantly aided by eating food that has a vast amount of energy in the smallest package attainable. Meat contains more "energy" per pound than plant material, because plants only get their energy from the sun and animals get their energy from the sun and eating plant material (or other animals). The more meat . . . the more efficient the fuelling process. If our intelligence is to increase and we are to "advance" . . . where is all that fuel going to come from? A lab? Eating buckets/pounds of fish a day? A ton of grass? It would work the same for aliens as well . . . so if they are "advanced" intellectually, they would be need even more fuel to develop and maintain higher intelligence . . . what if that meant eating us? Would they still be advanced? Wouldn't you want a gun then?

Senator Dianne Feinstein is anti gun for many reasons. along with being antigun as a Sierra Clubber she is anti hunting anti offroading.
Getting rid of guns gets rid of a lot of hunters and leaves less reasons for people to need Vehicles off the pavement.

This opens up land "from" multiple use for the elite treehugging hiking only.

I will guarantee bows will be next after guns.

She needs to get some help for her PTSD from way back when Mayor Moscone and Harvey Milk got shot by Dan White. That was the start of her Progrom and the beginning of our plight.

Every time she comes forward like a crusader to ban guns. Wars on alcohol, poverty, crime, drugs, terror, all of these have failed miserably. She'll never get it, she's been traumatized.

The woman needs a term in therapy, not another term in office.

Using the label "Assault Weapon" for everything that is semi auto is ridiculous. There is a big difference between a semi auto and a full auto. Bans on clips is also the most retarded thing ever. Instead of having 2x30 round clips I must have 6x10 round clips. Oh wow you saved a whole 5 seconds time between magazine swap. A rifle that's scoped and dialed in and being used by a skilled marksman doesn't care how many bullets it has, as it will only take one. I can thumb flip out my knife just as fast as a switchblade does that make it a assault weapon?

If we're going to outlaw anything, can it PLEASE be alcohol or all these pysch meds that turn lunatics into delusional lunatics with a grudge against gov/doctors/society for being poisoned and made into even more of a monster?


Lastly I really love how the media and our congress cant seem to grasp the idea that CRIMINALS AND MASS MURDERERS most of the time are ***not registered gun owners** i repeat, registered gun owners generally have a smidge of common sense and morals. Also they're aware that the gun they have registered is on record, and can be tested in the event of a crime. You'll also notice I said generally because we've all seen those videos on the net of dumb radnacks having fun and ending up shooting emself.


When I was a little child I was always angered when effected by the actions of others, John Q Smith shoots a neighborhood cat with a BB gun and now for a 4 block residental radius children are scolded for the actions of one douchebag child. It's essentially the same as Sire Obama & Co blanket gun owners with shame because of some small fringe elements who should of never been issued or allowed near a firearm -- or any weapon for that matter is absolutely absurd and a step backwards.

But they must be real fun to take for target practice, right?! Great for pictures!!! And mass murders.


With all due respect to everyone in here....

It was like Senator Cruz threw a bucket of water on her and she melted. Maybe her winged ugly Obama can fly off and be crowned king of the liberal munchkins now.

WASHINGTON — To advance a cause that has defined her political career, Sen. Dianne Feinstein brought the father of a child killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School to Capitol Hill, where he talked about the last time he saw his first-grader alive.
www.latimes.com...

Once again, using Sandy Hook victims to further her agenda for disarmament. I'm glad her sick and twisted game to further her agenda has been brought to a halt. I'm sure she'll try again though.



And she spoke grimly as a veteran of the gun wars.

"There will be another event," she said. "Mark my words."



Oh really Ms Feinstein? And you KNOW this because....?
