Democratic senators offer gun control amendment for cybersecurity bill

O'rly?!

The trusted protectors of the people are allowed to posses these 'murderous devices of mass destruction'... even retired anointed ones, but the common man isn't?

FUCK THAT SHIT

Lets see the gum-flappin, gun-grabbing, blow hards put their money where their mouth is and propose an across the board ban.

But... they'll never do something that would upset or anger their blue legions because its always sound political policy to say to the public, "this common sense, much needed legislation has the support of our brave men and women in uniform... blah...blah.. blah... etc... etc...etc...".

It also looks impressive to have a few 5 star, badge wearing, dick wads with a stick up their asses
standing on the podium nodding in solemn agreement when you try to sell the public this steaming pile of shit.

Across the board bans or no bans at all.

Especially if they're exempting retired cops. What the fuck? Trying to create special classes of people much?

Has the NRA released a condemnation statement yet?

The Intertubes aren't going to be threatened by a Glock magazine that holds 11 shots instead of 10.

that security comes in several forms, safety from crazies with
machine guns being one of them ....

...and the band played on.

When we play your games.

Ridering additional, unrelated causes onto every other bill's enough of a problem as is.

Reid knows better than to embarrass rural Democrats in an election year.

This bill is going nowhere fast, despite the usual (urban) suspects advocating for it.

I know so many people who were softening because they were feeling confident that this sort of thing was not going to happen after all and then this.

Not many of us rural Democrats left!

Damn sure enough 1st and 2nd generation repugs though!

I'll hold the ball so you can kick it...
