Clueless From California

Chi-comm Feinstein takes the handoff from POS Anti-American Eric Holder...

http://feinstein.senate.gov/public/inde ... f46ed11984
Washington, DC – U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), indicated that she plans to introduce legislation to reinstate a federal ban on assault weapons after the U.S. Senate voted on Thursday to repeal gun ownership restrictions in Washington, D.C....

“I am prepared to wage the assault weapons battle again and intend to do so. I have been quiet about this because there are many other pressing needs of this Nation. But with the help of the President, the administration, and the people of this great country, we do need to fight back against these kinds of amendments,” said Senator Feinstein, the author of the original assault weapon ban enacted in 1994...

Price of POS stamped out military junk guns with big clips is soaring, the economy is beginning it's turnaround right downtown at the local beer bait and ammo store.

Stock up while you can, and get them turned around in the next year before the market is saturated and the demand wanes.

You don't even know how to fire a gun, much less own one.....that broom stick you drilled with at El Cid probably won't fall under the restrictions currently being discussed by your fellow hymie and lover, Feinstein....

SAY WHAT??

Yes, POS Anti-American Eric Holder now is alluding that the failure of the U.S. to prevent "resident", I.D. required sales of semi-automatic weapons is fueling the Drug-v-Police/Governement war in Mexico... :roll:


(Pssst...POS...climb up out of your rabbit hole for a minute. Come closer...closer...


"EVERY DEVELOPED NATION (RUSSIA, U.S., CHINA, BRAZIL, FRANCE, CZECHOSLOVAKIA) HAS BEEN SHIPPING MILITARY GRADE, SELECTIVE FIRE AND FULL AUTOMATIC FIREARMS TO CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICAN COUNTRIES
FOR DECADES!!!!!!!!"

But no, POS Anti-American Eric Holder is going to suggest that those full automatic weapons the cartel thugs use to murder the police are converted semi-automatic firearms lawfully purchased in the U.S., undoubtedly at a gun show, by a card carrying NRA member, driving a gas guzzler, who then takes the firearm home, pays a lawless gunsmith several hundred or thousand dollars to convert it to a selective fire or full auto weapon, then smuggles the weapon into Mexico to sell to Drug Cartel soldiers. :roll:
Seems I'm not the only one who's challenging the (former BATF's) alleged statistics on U.S. weapons in Mexico...

Ain't it wondwerful? The truth is that Obama is only taking guns from white folk and that he is personally going to place a confiscated weapon in the glove box of each free Cadillac that he's going to give to every African-American in the country next month.

Watcha packen that your worried about?

I'm not worried, but here would be mine.

Winchester Model 100 .308 semiautomatic
Image

The .308 Winchester is a rifle round and is the commercial version of the military 7.62x51mm NATO centerfire cartridge. The .308 Winchester was introduced in 1952, two years prior to the NATO adoption of the 7.62x51mm NATO T65, Winchester (a subsidiary of Olin Corporation) branded the cartridge and introduced it to the commercial hunting market as the .308 Winchester.Winchester's Model 70 and Model 88 rifles were subsequently chambered for the new cartridge. Since then, the .308 Winchester has become the most popular short-action big-game hunting cartridge worldwide. It is also commonly used for civilian target shooting, military sniping, and police sharpshooting. The relatively short case makes the .308 Winchester especially well adapted for short action rifles.

Is Pelosi's call for gun registration the first step in Obama's gun confiscation scheme?

EDITORIAL: 'We want them registered'
Democrats are going after guns

Monday, April 13, 2009

http://washingtontimes.com/news/2009/ap ... istered39/
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, announced last week that she wants to register guns. Her next move will be to try to confiscate them.

The speaker picked a television show with a viewership of 4.6 million to float the Democrats' coming gun-control push. Questioned on ABC's "Good Morning America" about the prospect of new gun-control laws now that "it's a Democratic president, a Democratic House," she responded, "We don't want to take their guns away. We want them registered."


Politicians and bureaucrats routinely claim that registration helps solve crimes. If a registered gun is used in a crime and left at the crime scene, registration supposedly lets the police trace the gun back to the criminal. Though this turn of events might work on fictional TV crime shows, it virtually never occurs in real life...

...Despite what Mrs. Pelosi might think, those who use guns to commit major crimes such as robbing and killing are unlikely to respect her request to file paperwork so the government can catalog the tools of their trade.

Numerous examples disprove gun-control propaganda. Hawaii has had licensing and registration of guns for about 50 years. After all of the administrative expenses and inconvenience imposed on gun owners, police there cannot point to a single crime that has been solved as a result of those programs. Given Hawaii's remote island geography, this should be an ideal place to keep track of guns because movement in and out of the state is limited and legal importation is controlled. If registration is going to work anywhere, it should work there. Unfortunately, criminals seem to be able to get their hands on guns virtually anyplace in the world.

Other jurisdictions with a history of strict handgun bans, such as the District of Columbia and Chicago, have even required registration of hunting rifles and shotguns for more than 20 years. Neither the District nor Chicago can point to any crimes that have been solved using registration records.

The same rules apply across the border. Canada, which has imposed registration of handguns since the 1930s, does not have much to show for it. In 2006, when the Liberal Party under Prime Minister Paul Martin controlled the government, it was admitted in parliamentary debate that just three crimes in 70 years had been solved as a result of registration. A couple of those cases were debatable because other independent evidence helped solve the crimes. According to the Canadian Ministry of Public Safety, just 4 percent of Canadian handgun murders in 2005 and 2006 were committed with registered handguns, and none of those were registered to the people who committed the crimes. As for long-gun registration, at least as of 2006, not a single violent crime had been solved through registration.

Because registration doesn't help solve crime, it is important to ask why government wants to register the people's firearms. History provides the answer. In countries from Australia to England, registration has been used to create lists of guns that later were confiscated by their governments. Despite Mrs. Pelosi's assurances to the contrary, Americans' fear that registration will lead to confiscation is well-founded. Indeed, Mrs. Pelosi's own state of California already has used existing registration lists to confiscate so-called assault weapons just a half-dozen years ago.
Pretty accurate.

T-man,
This crap just chips away at your formidable credibility. Not because of the issue itself, but because you're so boorish and hateful in your presentation, man. You're worse than that Limbaugh asshole, even. Going to illogical, ridiculous extremes.......

Jesus, take it easy and stop hating people.

Serious, dude.

P.S. I bet you don'te even own a single fvcking gun, too.

You're not getting it, T. Your question is meaningless because there are already millions of guns out there that aren't registered and never will be. Millions.
