Feinstein introduces sweeping
ban on military-style weapons

The Hill [Washington, DC], by Alexander Bolton

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 1/24/2013 12:09:29 PM

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and a group of Senate Democrats on Thursday introduced legislation to ban the sale and manufacture of more than 150 types of semi-automatic weapons with military-style features. The legislation also bans magazines holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition and requires people who already own assault rifles to use secure storage and safety devices and bars them from selling high-capacity clips. “No weapon is taken from anyone,” said Feinstein. “The purpose is to dry up the supply of these weapons over time.”

Comments:
And so it begins. I´ve never felt more unsettled about what is happening in our country. It´s terribly distressing.

For those of us with Dem/socialist/fascist Senators up for reelection in 2014, now is the time to write and call their office. We need to be sure there is bipartisan opposition to this nut job’s bill.

This is not a good bill. Gun contol is not intended for public safety. It is intended for politician safety. Because her bill is so wrong headed, it will probably pass. Our prevailing political climate is toxic.

"Dianne Feinstein was first elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1969. She won one of her elections by campaigning late the night before election day at sado-masochistic bars. She got the whip vote and was smart enough to it so late that the news media could not get the story out to the voters. This was at a time when the SF Coroner’s office admitted that 10% of all unnatural deaths were the result of sadists cutting off the circulation of their sexual partners. The coroner ran classes to educate the sadists as to the correct methods of tying up people. Establishments were set up with doctors and nurses on call so masochists could receive immediate medical attention. Unfortunately for America she defeated Quentin Kopp for President of the Board of Supervisors in 1978. On November 27, 1978 Mayor Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk were assassinated by ex-Supervisor Dan White and she became Mayor of San Francisco. Mr White used the Twinkie defense and was convicted of manslaughter as opposed to murder. He served less than two years of a 5 to 7 year sentence".

One seriously has to wonder about the ´brain power´ of a career politician now supposedly an ´authority´ on firearms...

...who hasn´t quite figured out that a double-barrel 12 ga. shotgun loaded with 00 buckshot could do about as much damage in a classroom full of kindergarten kids as an ´assault weapon´. Real smart Feinstein - guess you missed the class on ´projectiles per cartridge´ at the San-Fran S&M gun club...

Game on, DiFi. Democrats are so dishonest. What they really want is to abolish the 2nd Amendment. Sorry. You can´t amend the Constitution by statute. We don´t need our weapons just to shoot targets and deer. We need them to protect ourselves from Democrat tyrants. Democrats are the biggest enemy this Republic faces.

Besides taking away the historic constitutional rights of hundreds of millions of law aiding Americans based on a few criminally insane actions perpetrated by mentally ill people, who are dangerous to themselves and others by banning just about all modern semi-automatic firearms produced and sold in America today, this liberal Democrat bill is designed to put most of the conservative oriented US small arms and related industries out of business, as they could not survive by bidding for a diminishing number of military contracts in the future. If that happens, the liberal Democrats will also be destroying tens of thousands of well paying US jobs in those industries.

And if all these evil "assault" weapons disappear as she wants, it will drop the annual murder count by such a miniscule amount as to be nearly unmeasurable.

The goal is to take advantage of a shocking emotional event to further the next step of killing the 2nd amendment, not to actually do anything productive to prevent a recurrance of the original problem.

When this doesn´t work, it will be on to the next step, ad infanitum.

Pass what you want......I will proudly defy it. And they better stay out of Texas if they want to enforce it. The only place they will be welcomed is Travis Couny, what we call San Francisco on the Colorado.

Otherwise, the law will not be worth the paper it is printed on. Here in Texas we can read the U.S Constitution just fine and have no need for a liberal judge to tell us what it says.

"Hadiya Pendleton was me, and I was her," said the first lady. "Thousands of children in this city live in neighborhoods where a funeral for a teenager is considered unfortunate, but not unusual; where wandering onto the wrong block or even just standing on your own front porch can mean putting yourself at risk," Michelle Obama told the Chicago crowd, according to a transcript provided by the White House.

Left-wing magazine Mother Jones made news this week with a report based on a secret recording of a Feb. 2 meeting of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell with campaign strategists. Federal and state law prohibits publication of information acquired through secret recording, but a 2001 Supreme Court ruling gives publishers like Mother Jones a get-out-of-jail-free card. But whoever taped the private conversation can’t wiggle off the hook so easily. Whoever bugged the meeting room or secretly placed a recording device will be in serious legal trouble — unless he or she was one of the strategists.

A Michigan high school canceled a speech by former Sen. Rick Santorum after teachers became outraged over his opposition to gay marriage and threatened to stage protests and a possible work stoppage. Santorum had been invited to deliver a upcoming speech on leadership by the Young Americans for Freedom chapter at Gross Pointe South High School. But the speech was canceled on Monday after the school district’s superintendent heard from angry teachers. “It’s a sad day when liberal educators are allowed to influence young minds – extending free speech rights only to those who share their liberal views,” Santorum said

Cruz´s comments come as Congress debates passing a set of gun control measures meant to reduce gun violence and prevent shooting massacres similar to the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

Using two email accounts for work isn’t a new practice, and was also done under President Bush, Jackson said.

Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius conceded Monday that implementing the Affordable Care Act has been more complicated and frustrating than the Obama administration expected, largely due to Republicans who have opposed the law´s state-based exchanges and Medicaid expansion. "The politics has been relentless and that continues," Sebelius said. "There was some hope that once the Supreme Court ruled in July, and then once an election occurred there would be a sense that, ´This is the law of the land, let´s get on board, let´s make this work.´"

Myron Ullman, Johnson´s predecessor at JCPenney, takes office as CEO. When Johnson was initially wooed by JCPenney, it was to serve as CEO with Ullman as Chairman. In January 2012, Ullman was unceremoniously removed from the board. Gone with Ullman was any control the Board of Directors had over Ron Johnson and his control of JCPenney resources.

The state of California is reportedly considering legislation that would force group insurance policies to provide infertility treatment for gay and lesbian couples. Two men who have sex with each other for a year and do not produce a baby would be considered “infertile” under the proposed legislation. So would two women having sex. Since biology does not allow those without a uterus to conceive or those without a penis to impregnate, every year-long gay couple in California would potentially be covered by this new provision of California law.
