"During a July 26 appearance on CBS News’ Face the Nation, Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) acknowledged that [the] alleged Lafayette gunman ... did not do 'anything wrong' in the way he acquired his firearm, yet still posited a need to 'use the weight of the government' to bring about better gun control." ...

Submitter's Note: "Nothing wrong"? Seriously? How about the felony the shooter committed in lying on his 4473 or the multiple felonies he committed being a "prohibited person" in possession of a gun and ammunition? |

| Seems to me the senator already has what he wants. It just doesn't work, as we've had ample examples of already this summer! Like most progressive elites he'd rather write legislation than enforce existing laws or work to correct their faults. Not much bandwidth in being a repairman, I suppose. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
