So it begins: Senator drafts new gun control bill in wake of Colorado shooting. Will the democrats use any excuse to restrict our second amendment rights?

The-Powers-That-Be have manipulated conservatives and liberals against each other, when the real enemy is our own government and the evil hands that control the government. No matter your view on guns or gays or religion or whatever, the citizens must unite against this wicked rule. And as someone who primarily associates with democrats, let me tell you guys, we don't want "no guns"-- just less automatics. it's a lot more reasonable than "take away all the guns!"---- even us "pussy" liberals think that would be a terrible idea, because then how could we protect ourselves against the real enemy, the government? Believe it or not, liberals aren't out to rob you of your rights or stomp your liberties-- we just want a better world for all humans. And in the coming months, when the Elite begin to truly instill their fascist regime, liberals and conservatives must realize that ultimately, we play for the same team. If we don't unite now, it may already be too late, and our only hope for unity will be inside a FEMA camp.

The liberal gun grabbers are always looking for an excuse to disarm us.

Let it cost them their jobs.

you can not put a gun on the table and tell it to shoot a person in the other room.

nobody needs assault weapons. Hand guns and Hunting guns should be fine . Anything over that needs to be in the army only.

Lautenberg shouldn't even be in the senate... if not for Democrap games

The Democratic Senate probably keeps a ready-to-go copy of Gun Legislation taped under the podium. First Democratic up there gets to pull it out, fill out the date, put their name on it, and call it his/hers.

They don't need an excuse. They'll try to do it ayway.

We don't need gun control! We need people control! The Constitution as we have known it is a thing of the past under Obama. So is Law Enforcement in Major Cities like Chicago, LA, Detroit, New Orleans, Houston, thanks to gangs consisting of people who get subsidized to make bad choices, ad generatum, ad nauseum, ad infinitum. Wake up America Marxists like Obama are destroying fabrick of America's body politic. Just wait to see what "solution" will be presented if he gets another term. If you think Hitler's "Jewish Problem" was deplorable, wait until you see Obama's take on White Upper Middle Class American Taxpayers! Arm yourself while you can.

I believe that a man has the right to bare arms if he feels it is necessary, however the NRA has to make some kind of effort to get guns out of the hands of "FREAKING INSANE MENTAL CASES!!! I believe that gun control should be for mental cases only, oh and certain people from New Jersey.

But more people believe in the Second Amendment than they did 20 years ago. So they're going to play hell getting it passed!

Poll: Fewer Americans support stricter gun control laws
http://articles.cnn.com/2009-...

Like this is the first mass killing? All gun control will do is send more guns underground. Just as they have no control of drugs. Making it more difficult for law abiding citizens to be able to protect themselves is so wrong as we have the right according to the Constitution!

they will loose...

How ridiculous! The theatre was a gun free zone and thats why so many were injured. Restricting gun laws only remove guns from law abiding citizens not those who wish to inflict damage.

If they restrict too much they will find themselves smack dab in the middle of a revolution.

None of the above.

If you're going to follow the constitution, you should read the whole thing. It specifically states that gun rights are to be well regulated.

"banning, prohibiting and otherwise TRASHING the Second Amendment is another"

Yeah, but that's not what this article said. This article said RESTRICT.

The only guns that need to be banned are automatic assault rifles. There is no need.

No. That is not what it says. It says the militia is to be well regulated.

A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Incidentally the SCOTUS has upheld that the 2nd amendment does apply to private citizens and has repeatedly upheld the citizens right to own and carry firearms.

See Heller vs. District of Columbia

Samuel A. Alito Jr., who wrote the opinion for the court's dominant conservatives, said: "It is clear that the Framers . . . counted the right to keep and bear arms among those fundamental rights necessary to our system of ordered liberty."

So, yeah. The Supreme court sees it my way.

Any excuse.

Instead, why don't these ass hats introduce tougher penalties? I'll print this idea again. Take this case in Colorado. If the guy is caught red handed, and proof of his despicable act can be proven beyond a reasonable doubt, based on evidence and eye-witness testimony, then fast track his/her sentence! Take the perpetrator out immediately, tie them to a pole, blindfold and execute them. Rids us of a piece of evil and saves the American taxpayer thousands and thousands of dollars in housing etc.

I am willing to bet that those who plan such heinous events will think twice.

There is already hundreds of laws on the books, so why more, just enforce the ones there. Also, as an example, I believe each state should impose their own gun laws. Why should a California Senator or a New York Senator have imput into what gun laws should be in Montana or Missouri, or Oklahoma.....

Is anyone surprised at Frank Lautenberg? Even during a food fight the man would blame guns.

He's a hypocrite. He lives in his protected gated community and is out of touch with reality. Maybe he needs to live here for a while.....

Democrats will not win regarding gun control . Gun Control does not work. When our own Government gives away weapons to the Mexicans that get to kill our own citizens they will not win the argument to control guns for bonafide citizens as we all know that the bad guys will always obtain guns. Go Home Obama

What's really needed is making it easier to get a concealed carry permit. Criminals and lone nut cases like the one in Colorado will always be able to get a weapon so qualified American citizens should also have easy access to a weapon. Not only does that give us the ability to defend ourselves and protect our family it also puts fear in the minds of cowardly criminals who want to prey on the weak. When they don't know who's armed they are reluctant to commit a crime of violence. In every state where CCP are easily obtained violent crime has fallen. Gun control means one thing, hitting your target.

The gun did not pull the trigger a man pulled the trigger.

The problem is tha they ignore the Constitution is all of these Bills they present. They do not really want to sol;ve a problem but just play to an audience they hve created..... Thanx Democrat SCUM/ Either change th Constitution with a specific usage of "HOW TO CHANGE THE CONSTITUTION LEGITIMATELY or go home like they always do when required to do something legitimate. These Democrats are pure Filthy SCUM.....and need to be replaced by real Americans.....
Ok go look at the requirements if you can find an old Constitution text.

The American People need to all be the mandate to wear their firearms from now on. People lik the Clown from Colorado will not last a minute in a hail of gunfire. He might not even fall to Earth with Arms or head/

The Senator from NJ should retire and go find a good rocking chair. I believe he is about 90 or close and is a wealthy (1%er). His thinking in many areas leaves a lot to be desired. All they have to do is ENFORCE all existing laws. We do NOT need more laws that are jamming th system.

You left out senile......

Thank you. There are others in the same sinking boat and they are not all Dems. Time to clean house and bring some fresh air and sanity to Congress. The first two that should but we can't do it now....Nancy and Harry.

we should never go into making laws and having political views from the heat of the moment, it's how people like Hitler can take hold

To the democrats ( and I am still registered as one) and Obama.

FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS BOY!!!!!!!

All the sane people are fleeing the democratic party. You better get out while escape is still possible.
