Updated: The Washington Examiner is reporting that on Wednesday at 12:15 p.m., House Democrats led by Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Minority Whip Steny Hoyer will demand a vote on gun control by holding up photos of “victims of gun violence” while they stand at the microphone to ask for action.
Described as a “protest,” the action is a political shot at the Republican leadership, and sure to get some air time on the afternoon news broadcasts from coast to coast. Democrats are making gun control a central issue in their campaign, following the lead of presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham Clinton. |

| Nothing the Dems propose would have done anything to prevent any of the past mass shootings or terrorist attacks. They know this. What they're after is a vote down so that when another attack occurs, which inevitably it will, they will point to the down vote and say "see, this is all the Republican's fault." |

| These people do not use rational thought so its no use explaining the facts. They are stuck on stupid and will vote for it to find out what's in it. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
