Even now, the paranoid gun-haters are readying more so-called "gun control" legislation, taking advantage of the shock and fear created by 20 first-grade children and six adults murderered by an insane criminal in Connecticut.

Never mind that similar legislation in the past, has failed every time it's been tried, and that the murders have gone right on, and even gotten worse.

"Gun Control". It's not about guns. It's about control.

The Assault Weapons Ban Didn

The Assault Weapons Ban Didn’t Work Then and It Won’t Work Now

by Doug Giles
Dec 30, 2012

Senator Dianne Feinstein is queuing up come January 2013 to retable—yet again—an Assault Weapons Ban (AWB) in order to “severely mitigate the possibilities of another Sandy Hook atrocity.”

Great idea, Dianne, as the first AWB that Clinton signed into law worked wonders in schools from 1994-2004. It was awesome. It panned out wonderfully aside from the following:

* November 7, 1994: Wickliffe, Ohio: (Wickliffe Middle School shooting) Keith Ledeger, 37, a former student at the school, shot and killed custodian Pete Christopher and wounded four other adults.

* January 12, 1995: Seattle, Washington: A 15-year-old Garfield High School student left school during the day and returned with his grandfather’s 9mm semiautomatic handgun. He wounded two students.

* October 12, 1995: Blackville, South Carolina: (Blackville-Hilda High School shooting) Anthony Sincino, 16, killed one teacher and wounded another before committing suicide.

(long list of other murders and assaults detailed, see above link for full list)

In addition to the AWB not really stemming the tide of gun violence in the public school systems, it sure didn’t calm things down in the “gun-free” Windy City, as Chi-town racked up a whopping 7,636 murders during the Clinton ban.

Speaking of Chicago, this year alone 446 kids have been shot where guns have been verboten, and just this week Chicago hit 500 murders that have now occurred in the “gun free” Toddlin’ Town for 2012.

It appears as if our former AWB and our current “gun free” zones don’t work.

One might think they would learn.. But they don't and at this point i don't think they can........ learn.... period.

They should have learned bans don't work. They should have learned something about guns in the past 50 years. They didn't.

They should have learned what gun laws there are, but didn't.

Why we have gun owners (reportedly) that have no clue what a 4473 form IS.

(allegedly) they filled these out to buy guns..... but yet have no recollection , but will call the 4473 a registry LOL

The can't tell what is a assault rifle from an assault rifle nor have a clue about anything other than what's in their pants and if you ask me even that is debatable at this point.

But what can we expect for a shemale anyway?

All the left has really done is make living life very shallow... Life these days is about having every want, better if someone else has to pay for it and pretending we are all equal.

Feinstein is apparently finally ready to get this pig of a bill onto the Senate floor.

Don't people like her, ever learn?
