Can you punch out to your groups? This is Schumer's way of stopping McConnell's vote against Obamacare, and I can see the Dead Elephants saying "the symbolic win on Obamacare is worth the ire of the nut-job community."

VA-ALERT: URGENT ALERT - Federal Magazine Gun Ban!
Taking a quick break between "Project Gunwalker" posts to pass along an urgent alert from VCDL, passed on to me. Sorry, no time to purty it up:
Get a Bill Number on that, the only aviation bill I could find is HB 1422, which doesn't say anything about firearms whatsoever. Some house morons who don't know what barrel shrouds are might be talking about putting it in the bill, but it would not get out of the rules committee if she somehow managed to get it in there. Can anyone confirm or deny this is HB 1422?
ReplyDeleteI always get a nice letter thanking me for my comments, and an assurance that they will balance our rights with the need for security and public safety.
ReplyDeleteBut... once more into the breach.

ReplyDeleteA lawyer's suicide by cop after an alleged "domestic." Word is he CAME OUT OF HIS HOUSE to shoot at police after letting his wife and daughter leave.
The Slimes-Disgrace says he has two actual submachine guns -- an H&K MP5 and a Thompson -- along with more usual guns (including a semi-auto M4gery). He was a gun dealer. No doubt they were legally owned.
The local TVs called it "a large stash" of guns. Sounds like something a ... a CRIMINAL would have, doesnt it?
He was also taking Xanax (generic) which is used for anxiety and panic disorders.
Oh, goody.
1/4 of Americans are taking SOMETHING. Life is discouraging.
The last paragraph seems to indicate he had STOPPED taking his medicine.
Let the blood dancing begin.
Sorry, read it wrong. Looks like he took twice the Xanax he should have, plus maybe with beer.
ReplyDeleteLike Brian Aitken, someone was WORRIED about him and called the cops.
THE COPS.
