Here they are, the leaders of the “compromise” movement. Which, when it involves Chuck Schumer, is not a compromise movement at all. It is a choreographed surrender.

Time to call them / write them / Tweet them / post on their Facebook pages letting them know that any compromise that takes away the right to possess STANDARD, common-use magazines (30 being the standard for the AR-15 platform, and that platform being the most popular rifle platform) or that backs a universal background check that ties increased mental health accounting by the government to a national gun registry through the 4473 form, which is the only means by which a universal background check can be enforced, will be treated as the sacrificing of our unalienable second amendment rights on the altar of “bi-partisanship,” and meet with driven opposition.
Not only that, but inasmuch as such a sacrificing of our natural right gives the Democrat gun-grabbers the cover to adopt the preconditions to build a registry, and sets the stage for confiscation somewhere down the road (once they are able to stack the courts, say), it is an abrogation of our legislators’ oaths to uphold the Constitution — and a signal that they are more than willing to sell out their base for some favorable notice by the liberal media and the opportunity to “prove” that they, too, “care about the children” and “care about gun violence.”
As I noted on NRA radio some time back, “gun violence” that results in a dead attacker and a saved family or family member is good good violence. So it makes no sense to take on gun violence; it makes sense to take on criminality and protect first responders, we, the people.
By allowing the left to control the language, we’ve allowed them to set the terms of the debate, and cowardly compromising appeasers like John McCain or Eric Cantor or Scott Rigell — political animals of the worst sort — will always choose cheap grace and a show of bipartisanship over principle if they believe it politically expedient. Which is why they watch polls, and why the progressive media is constantly weighing them and then churning them out.
We must rid themselves of such legislative cancers. Give them a piece of your minds.
It’s bad enough to pre-emptively surrender when public opinion is against you, but when it’s on your side and you STILL give up without a fight there’s something seriously wrong.
last night i thought I heard a noise in my bathroom so I fired four shots through the door blam blam blam blam but it was just the turtles
but the peace of mind of knowing i had 24 more rounds ain’t something I’m a wanna give up I don’t think
I think that CA assistant DA is missing you, hf. Perhaps you should go back to hanging around his place and spouting stupid shit.
you’re rude
but I was there already this morning spouting stupid shit if you must know
Sometimes I find it hard to believe that you are from Texas.
do i tax your credulity?
We truly get the government we deserve. We elected these spineless maggots.
Staunch!
I’ve told you a million times already, happyfeet. There isn’t a conservative bone in your body. If you have no use for something, you don’t care if it’s banned. And if you’re for something, you don’t care how it’s enacted. Worse still, you adopt the techniques of the left to ridicule and demonize those you disagree with. Though to be fair to the left, most of them don’t do so using baby talk.
We see you!
i love guns more than pickles but I tell you what
I like it how fascists like Meghan’s coward daddy and eric young gun cantor are finally coming out of the closet and and bringing closure to this long drawn-out process of hopelessly defiling the republican brand
time for chapter the next
It isn’t surrender if they wanted it in the first place.
*We* don’t want it (except for the trolls), but they do. What do they care? They have bodyguards.
The Bill of Rights is not negotiable. It is not to be given away for…. I’m sorry, what were we gaining in this “compromise” again?
A comprise no one but the idiot “elite” are demanding. And still I feel the day drawing closer when the government, especially the right, will beg us to help them fix the problems they created for a future that they were super sure would happen because they constantly talked about it.
Boy will they have demonized egg on their faces.
andoh and also my first comment was just a fun blade runner reference not some kind of snide anti-gun commentary
I love guns more than pickles and I like having them widely dispersed amongst the populace
also I hate fascists
Missouri GOP Rep. Turns the Tables on Dems: Introduces Bill That Makes Proposing Gun Control Laws a Felony
if you’re for something, you don’t care how it’s enacted
you’re talking about Prop 8
which was a silly little plebiscite held *after* the legislature of California approved the gay marriagings quite properly and legislatively
and then we were treated to a nice steaming helping of what?
Majoritarianism. And this is precisely why the founders had the wisdom to recognize unalienable rights and form a republic, where the rights of the minority could not be taken away by temporary coalitions that form a majority.
I was sort of hoping you’d give the DA your exclusive presence, hf.
Rep. Mike Leara (R-St. Louis) has boots John McCain is unworthy to lick…
propositions are a proggtard thing you could look it up
Democracy is in principle evil. Why? Because democracy is of necessity stupid. You could look it up.
Except there’s no right to “marry the person to whom I share a love that dare not speak its name” in the Bill of Rights. And what was done legislatively and properly was secure for Californians a proposition ballot initiative to keep the legislature in check. It’s a federalist thing (albeit one I don’t really tend to agree with. And yet!).
Other than that, sure. Whatever.
Staunch!

In case you haven’t seen it yet, The Firearms Policy Coalition has an easy way to contact the gun manufacturers to encourage them to stop doing business with States and agencies that are anti-Second Amendment (h/t Resistor in the Rockies):

The legislature never did any such thing. In fact, they did exactly the opposite.
There are no words for this. None:

Proposition 8 was a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT you zero-information Pokemon.
Speaking of McCain, there’s a great picture of him on Yahoo getting toasted by his constituents over immigration.
This guy needs to get kicked to the curb SO HARD.
So, Cass Sunstein, freed from the restraints of federal employment (Heh.), has moved past Nudge: Against Autonomy: Justifying Coercive Paternalism
In short: “Your rights? Kinda stupid. You really don’t need those. You know what you need? Me. Running your shit for
meyou. I got this, dipshit. Trust me.“OMG! “Paternalism?” TRIGGER ALERT!!!
Oh, wait again, this is the good kind of Patriarchy!! Carry on! John Edwards rules! /Marcotte
The serious me says that is all kinds of fucked up.
The me that needs help wonders where the one of the middle aged surfer dude and the newspaper delivery women are.
It’s good to see Sunstein didn’t misunderstand his tutors, Rawls and Dworkin.
It’s always the tutors, like Dewey. And Bill Ayers, obviously.
I didn’t know that there was a Constitutional right to keep and consume drugs. There must be. Joe and Joe are living testimony to it.
“I loved the D.C. Circuit… and I could’ve stayed there. But I think I got maneuvered into this job. And then I had a really bad interview.”
Said Clarence Thomas
isn’t it normal for targets of friendlies to get flashed up for so the intrepid agents learn to only fire at bad guys?
or is this one of those happy watches too much tv things?
no you big goofy proteins the california legislature okayed ssm twice
but the douchebag maid-fucking austrian piece of shit vetoed it
BUT, the legislature’s action lit a fire under the h8rs asses to endrun the legislature with another stab at a constitutional amendment, which they majoritarianly did
but someday soon there will be another vote and the constitution we be remendered and gay people will be able to marry in California and even Marco Rubio won’t be too upset cause he thinks states should be able to decide these sorts of things by themselves and I agree with roobs about that
“Majoritarianism. And this is precisely why the founders had the wisdom to recognize unalienable rights and form a republic, where the rights of the minority could not be taken away by temporary coalitions that form a majority”
By hook or by crook, but not by the consent of the governed.
And you should admire Schwarzenegger, the second time the people spoke, even he flipped off the voters.
Schwarzenegger is trash I don’t mean to be judgey I just think he’s a sad classless piece of hollywood shit
just a disgusting person
That is what’s normal. These are targets of what would normally considered friendlies, little old ladies, young mothers, young children, all holding guns and designed to be shot at.
They are called, “No More Hesitation”, to apparently discourage agents from having second thoughts about shooting these types of folks.
holy crap
plus they’re all white people
like me
Targets are always white people.
oh. Nobody tells me anything. You’d figure they’d be statistically balanced by census data.
Shoot (and keep shooting govrmnt drones!), it sure looks balanced in the sense that ObaZma uses balance in his fiscal aims — so following him, balanced simply. The way ObaZma balances the fate of the nation in the palm of his hand, or so to say, earthward bound.

Sounds a bit like:
FWIW
Right now. Glenn Beck is savaging VP Viden’s stupid ‘DERRRR I told my wife to got outside with a double barreled shotgun and fire it into the air and you’ll never have trouble, And AR-15’s are hard to shoot’ nonsense.
It’s funny that Biden doesn’t trust his wife with anything but a breakaway. Because defending the home is just like bagging ducks while a park ranger/game warden is watching. That old movie where the old man fires off his double barrel on the porch and the biker kids run away is REAL. and the only way your home could ever be invaded.
