Following Wednesday's filibuster in the Senate led by Connecticut Democrat Chris Murphy, Republican leaders have agreed to hold votes on two pieces of legislation: expanded background checks and allowing the attorney general to prohibit gun sales to people on terrorism watch lists.
California Senator Dianne Feinstein introduced the ban on gun sales to suspected terrorists in December, following the mass shooting in San Bernardino. It failed 45-54.
In American culture, the Second Amendment means something different than what it means in court. |

| Only gun control dealing with the criminal element can make America safer. No gun control of responsible citizens has yet had any net positive effect. Today, I hear only lip service chat of managing immigration. It doesn't appear that our bureaucratic so called public servants have the desire, much less the will, to address it. We've long ago given up on throwing the rapists, illegals, drunk drivers, burglars, pedophiles, and all the other miscreants; who use or possess firearms, into jail with appropriate sentencing. The need for gun control could be null and void in 30 days anytime our public servants regained a sense of duty in providing safety for the average citizen. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. — Ronald Reagan |
