But our elected representatives need to hear from every mom, loudly and clearly, that we support this bill and that we will keep pressuring them until it is passed and signed into law.More insipid and baseless "gun show loophole" crap. And the pathetic thing is, GOP presidential hopeful and NRA Annual Meeting speaker John McCain agrees with her.
Getting gifts on Mother's Day is wonderful. But imagine if every mother in America joined together and persuaded Congress to close the loophole that makes gun violence against our children so prevalent.
Any bets that polite applause will rule the day?
If you have the stomach for it, and warning, you'll need to have, go take a look at how evil government regimes treat defenseless mothers. It's graphic, it's ugly, and unfortunately, it's true.

Asking woman in America to hold hands to save life is the oxymoron of oxymorons. 3 in 10 babies in America never see the light of day because their mothers kill them by having an abortion.
OK girls join hands with the rest of the girls after your visit to the abortion clinic. Oxymoron and I'm sure these hand holding woman don't get it.
My mother loved her Smith and Wesson .38. She was a good shot; never felt afraid even when she had to go into some unsavory parts of the city. She bought that one on-paper at a gun shop, but I'm sure if she had had time she would have enjoyed getting one at the gun show that the government would never know she had. She was ahead of her time.
Joe, people make mistakes, and then sometimes they make another mistake to "fix" it. It's sad, but we can't decide for them any more than we want them deciding for us. No woman I know who's had an abortion can remember it without tearing up. They felt it was their only choice at the time. They might have done differently with a little more love and a little less condemnation.
The photos at the "take a look" link are tame compared to some, and intentionally so, I'm sure.
It's good to remember that the civilian disarmers have NO CLUE and queasy stomachs. Rosie "I don't care if you think this is America and you have rights -- if you have a gun you should go to jail!" O'Donnell objected to lyrics in the Broadway musical "Annie Get Your Gun," such as "I can shoot a partridge with a single cartridge" as TOO VIOLENT and cruel.
Words in a song.
I wish I could erase from my mind's eye some of the atrocities visited on the disarmed.
Closer to home, in distance and in time, there's the "Waco Holocaust Electronic Museum."
Go there on an empty stomach.
Defender, I do agree that people make mistakes but allow me to make my point more clear. The woman behind this farce are the very woman behind abortion. From the time of Roe v Wade this country has murdered 50 million babies, 3 in 10 babies never see the light of day in American today. More babies are killed in one week then people are killed by other people using a firearm. Do the math and you will see an unAmerican agenda being spewed to the sheep.
Joe,
I REALLY try to just skip past your anti-abortion diatribes because I disagree with what I interpret as your underlying message. Instead of opposing what you are saying, I respect your freedoms and keep my mouth shut. OTOH, I wish you would do the same.
I get that you are opposed to abortion. However, you appear to want that opposition to be embodied in law. Defender just stated that by doing so you would in effect be forcing your will upon others. Just like the gun control activists are trying to do where guns are concerned. You rail about unborn babies being killed in the thousands and they rail about grown babies being killed in the thousands. Why is either viewpoint more valid?
Some people have abortions because childbirth would constitute an unacceptable risk to the mother, the child in question would have no quality of life due to mutation, or other disorder, rape, etc... Personally, while I tend to be against abortion, I think that those uses are valid. Just like my views on the use of deadly force. I am typically against shooting someone. However, if they are threatening me or mine then it is a valid use of deadly force.
Please stop vilifying the women who have abortions as you are not God and you do not know why they are going to that extreme.
Try to use love, caring and understanding and just maybe you can help save a few women who thought they had no other choice.
I do believe he was talking about abortion for convenience's sake.
Everyone has a right to protect her own life, and I would be the last to fault a woman who faced that choice. But, you cannot explain how an auto accident in which a fetus dies is suddenly human life and the at fault driver can go to jail for unlawful homicide, while the prospective mother with $75 dollars in her pocket can kill the kid and it is neither human or life, therefore no harm, no foul.
He makes a valid point in that we do not count abortion as the ending of life even though more life is lost to it than any other single cause.
There is a disconnect there that I do not intend to be politically correct enough to ignore. NOr should anyone.
SA,
Is aborting a Down's baby a "convenience"?
Who chooses what is or is not a convenience? I am not PC. However, I am most assuredly pro-choice. The thing is, I firmly believe that the people who decide to abort will live with the consequences of their actions. Just like those who choose to not abort must live with the consequences of their actions. However, people who push for anti-abortion legislation quite often are able to escape the consequences of those actions. The consequences are forced off onto the shoulders of distraught women, many of whom feel that they have no other option. Yes, yes there is a minority of serial abortionees. However, they end up having their own set of consequences which can include scarring of the uterus and an inability to either conceive or carry to term if they end up actually desiring to keep a child.
