Remember Before the Election - Obama Won't Go After Guns/MagJ

[motg9_6]

there is a bill being pushed through before fiensteins bill that restricts ANY magazine over 10 rnds. look it up.

the media will loose interest but that doesn't mean that its dieing down. media barely covered fast and furious and they didn't correctly cover the embassy massacre so people didn't know what really happened. when a president should have never been reelected the media covered it up. you cannot go on what the media portrays at all.

This bill only passes if these two conditions are met:
1.  The Republicans in the House *censored* out as usual.
2.  The bill gets watered down in such a way that it has no real teeth.

Feinsteins bill outlines what they want in a perfect world.  You can analize that one and make a case that the way it is worded bans all guns, something about "weapons that have a military use", pretty vague and would include revolvers and pump shotguns.  What actually gets voted on will be a feel-good, do-nothing bill.   

So, what you seem to be saying is "nothing to see here. Everyone can go home". Sorry, but that's not the case. We need to continue to pursue our legislators and nail down their positions. Complacency will bring more restrictions, I guarantee it.

I would assume that for most of you, the choice to vote Republican wasn’t totally easy either.

Easiest decision I ever made. . .

I didn't like all of the positions that Romney/Ryan took, but the decision was simple. The was absolutely nothing for me to justify voting for our idiot President. The recent push for gun control, using the lives of little children as fodder for his campaign, has convinced me that I was completely correct in my choice. He has no ethics and will do absolutely anything to achieve his personal goals. As is the mantra in far left liberal dogma, the end always justifies the means.

Guys, no name calling. Keep it civil or I'll nuke your posts. I've edited one response.

I had to go through and censor the profanity, please clean up the language, I am another topic closer to implementing bans for profanity.

Wenatcheejay is 100% correct in that it is mags and his like who bear a much greater responsibility in waging the upcoming battle. I am doing whatever I can from sending money to the NRA, and contacting my federal and state reps. But it those who were warned about the ramifications of supporting Obama and his ilk, yet did so anyway who have to take a more active role in this battle.

Mags, it seems I may have been offensive to you, moderators and owners and if so I apologize. I am taken back by it to be honest. But I yield and removed my other posts on this thread.

It seems the future of this Nation and the Constitution will rest with people like you. I truly believe the Republicans and all those who follow them are to weak minded to deal with the new political style of Democrats. I hope to be proven wrong but fear I am not.

To be honest, I give up.

The important thing is those that did vote Democratic to call Senators and Representatives. Explain they voted for them for "x" reason, but that gun control measures are non negotiable and will result in a loss of their vote. Many of us cannot do that, but those that can NEED to.

Also, don't take your eyes off the state. While the state senate has republican leadership, that's due to democrats voting with the republicans, mostly for financial alliances. In actuality, both house and senate in WA are democratic.

To be honest, I give up.

IMO, that right there is the problem. 

WJay, I agree with a lot of your posts, and in person I think we would get along pretty well.  Please don't take this personally, but that attitude is exactly the problem.  People get sick of the anti's whining and constant attacks, assume they will loose something even if it's just a "feel good, little thing", and give up.

That can never happen.

It's like waves crashing on the shore, removing one grain of sand at a time from a beach.  Folks, it's time to stop being the beach.  That little beach just keeps taking it, and eventually loses everything, because like a weak and whiny little beach, she just sits there and does nothing and never fights back.

Personally, I'm not gonna be anyone's little beach.  I'm gonna be the ocean.  I choose to be one of those who pounds relentlessly, slowly eroding every threat and blockage to liberty and freedom.  Wave after wave of constitutionally supported efforts to return the rights and liberties we have already lost, bringing our little beaches in government back down to size from the giant sand hills they have become.  Like an ocean, we must never tire of the efforts necessary to maintain a proper balance.  Remind politicians that their oath of office was to uphold and defend our constitution, and to serve the best interests of this country and her citizens.

Now is not the time for anyone who believes in our freedoms and liberty and 2nd amendment rights to quit.  Don't choose to be the little beach.  Choose to be the ocean.

ya we need to watch our states as well.

FishStiq, I would agree with you that it is vigilance and incremental change that makes the Dems success full, and most Republicans fail. Honestly the only way many conservative states are going to survive is by being PRO active and put 2nd amendment,Hunting farming rights etc into their State constitutions. The bar has to be set VERY high to surpass a 2/3rd vote. I only wish that some of the republicans in this state had thought of being proactive back in the 80's
