Whether the Semi-Auto Ban Passes May Depend on What Happens to the Senate Rules

Lasrry Pratt and Company have been walking the halls in DC full time these past few days. Here is the latest warning.

Face facts Mr. & Mrs American. You're being "sold down the river"; in contravention of your constitution and extensive historical precedents; by your servants forswearing their oaths to you.

Our craven political creatures are "bending with the winds of change" in order to secure their public sinecures. Most aren't even questioning from what quadrant, and to what purpose, these "winds" are blowing. But for gun owners the key words Jews and Hitler & Brown Shirts ought to resonate. >Jeff

McStain strikes again.

I can't believe so many "Republicans" thought he was a good choice in 2008.

That reminds me. I need to renew my GOA membership.

We really shouldn't be surprised at the Dependency Party changing the rules to the game. They're just consolidating power to make it easier to set absolute control over their American subjects (their view of us).

The Republicans will just bend over and let it happen -- a few, like Rand, Cruz, etc -- will fight the good fight, but perpetual sellouts like McCain, McConnell and Graham, along with other neoconservatives, will play along while murmuring weak protests for photo ops, in the hopes that they'll eventually get their turn at holding the reigns of power and will be able to exercise the same oppressive power to advance their brand of philosopher kings in ruling over the mundanes. Hell, they're the biggest advocates of such already passed atrocities as the (un)Patriot Act and NDAA which have stripped to the bone the Bill of Rights.

The question lies not in whether or not the self anointed governing elites will pass some variations of gun control, but what are you actually going to do when such restrictions become reality.

Time for huffing and puffing while beating one's chest has about come to an end, and soon we'll see who can walk the walk and not just talk a big game.

Look at the bright side. If successful, this maneuver would look almost as illegitimate as a total ban via executive order. This would make it that much harder to enforce since everybody would understand it is pure tyranny. Even the Fudds would get mad.

I don't care.

I have made my choice.

I will not give 1 inch.
I will not comply.
I will resist.
So help me God.

You have to understand that some if not most of the republicans are "owned" because of some matter that they do not want made public....

It's what Marxists do...

Well folks, we've arrived. TOTALITARIANISM-R-US is about to click the switch. Along with the REAL ID act going into effect on Jan 15th, 2013, coinciding with the activation of NSA's Bluffdale Orwellian surveillance facility, the gutting of the Constitution via NDAA and the FISA acts, the booming business of Drones-R-Us over the ..ahem.."homeland", secret dossier's on EVERY 'merican citizen, Obominations "kill list", and the true emergence of real Big Brother via the NSA's "Perfect Citizen" program, the one remaining thorn in their side is about to be removed.

However, as if the REAL ID isn't bad enough, the day they start bar-coding and or inserting RFID chips into Amerikan citizens is the day they will have to kill me.
