What??? What is misleading? I said when the House is adjourned, C-span stops broadcasting.

Of course, unless there are people on the thread who don't know the Speaker adjourns the meetings.

Do you mean the Speaker adjourned the House because of what the Dems were saying? I guess if that's the case, then yes, I suppose broadcasting can be manipulated.

This upsets me. I feel this is theatrical and misses the real issues going on in America. When will Congess address issues regarding mental health and healthcare in the US. Mental Health services in the US need finances to grow and provide adequate care to those in beed. In addition, we need a reform to provide better mental health care in the US. We need to endure everyone has access to healthcare.

They are taking pointers from Black Lives Matter thugs. They think I will actually work for them. Makes you wonder who the idiots are that voted these clowns in. Big speeches about staying ti a vote is taken, and then they run for home to go on vacation. Its like watching a whole troop of Clowns.

Yes. That is precisely what the Speaker did.

I actually passed Civics, so I know that the House of Representatives can't vote on any bill and make it Law without the Senate Vote.

This is about unelected Faceless Bureaucrats having the authority to put anyone they please on a "List".
The Devil is always in the Details and these particular 'devils' have no problem lying to the public about the "rules" in their bills. They have no problem Targeting Political Enemies - IRS Target Program & Shredded Hard Drives.

This is nothing more than a Kabuki Theater well organized Occupy event. They brought pillows & blankets, they brought signs and batteries for their electronic devises. They brought Posters and pre-printed signs, they visited with Hillary before they started. They arranged catered meals.

And they are constantly Fund Raising and now asking the public to "Occupy" all Republican Representative's Offices. This isn't even about Guns, this is about an Election this Fall.
Well said!
And THESE are the buffoons y'all keep putting back in office.

Last week, conservatives tried to say that the FBI didn't do their job, but this week they're saying that even if the FBI was relentlessly on the murderer's trail, nothing should prevent him from being able to purchase firearms. Do you see a disconnect there?

I also find it ironic that the same people against restricting gun sales to suspected terrorists are simultaneously fine with throwing rules and rights out the door and propose anything from internment camps to torturing suspects or potentially violating rights of people of a certain religion or ethnicity.

I'm fine with guns but we have far too many people that think they're own warped interpretation of the 2nd Amendment is the only or paramount right to our existence. We can and do have some rules in place to ownership and use, for good reason.

This research, however, shows that the court does not agree with the government's assertion: https://www.aclu.org/blog/speak-free...oples-freedoms

https://www.aclu.org/legal-document/...nion-and-order

As far as torture, I do not support it.

Finally, for the item under discussion, this is more about the 5th and 14th amendment, once again....due process of law is needed to remove a person's rights, than it is about the 2nd.
TS is right. the bill the dems want to put up for a vote is one that does an end run around several amendments to the constitution. and the really bad thing is that if you get on one of these government lists, you have to force the government to remove you from the list, AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE. and that too is wrong.

do we really want to live in a society where you are guilty until proven innocent? to we really want to subvert the constitution even more? do we really want to live in a society that fears the government?
