Exploitation involves two parties.

They are just as guilty for allowing themselves to be exploited.


Dog and pony shows in DC is nothing new but we now seem to thrive on it.
Logic and reasoning has gone out the window in favor of emotional gut reaction.

I don't see where any of them have been forced by Obama or anyone else into supporting the gun bill.

Unless you have evidence to the contrary?

Besides, losing your kid to a loon with a Bushmaster pretty much gives you the right to support the legislation.

People suffering intense grief are easily led. These people were led. By the nose. They feel extreme guilt, misplaced, of course, but guilt just the same. Their heads are filled with "what ifs".

And now we have Blabby Giffords pizing and moaning. Her head isn't filled with anything.

I'm loving it!

There are already BG checks in place and criminals still aren't prosecuted when they fail them. The bottom line is that EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS that any form of gun control or registry will do little to stop gun violence. The only solution would be to make it a death penalty if you are caught with one. Wanna bet a few liberals in here would have no problem with that?

Even Canada has stopped their long gun registry because IT DID NOT WORK, and cost them nearly $4,000,000,000.00 to learn their lesson. The same lesson gun grabbers can't seem to wrap their heads around.

So why spin your wheels arguing moot points?

I just wish we could recover all the tax money he blew flying his gun grabbing road show all over the country, and flying Sandy Hook parents to the capitol on Air Force One.
He also pretty much said "We will catch those responsible",

Still waiting..

Good attempt, but far fetched.
