    I don't think it will pass, but that doesn't mean we step aside and assume it to be so. I'm sure they'd love for us to do that. Just because it may not pass in whole doesn't mean it can't be amended and passed in part or other items added.

    We have an election next year, and they know this.

    I really really really hope you are right. Im worried, I wont lie. I feel so bad for them in NY and stress it happening to all of us. Someone sent me a link this morning saying PA is trying to pass the same thing WY is, where the laws wont effect us. I hope it passes so I wont have to worry, but Im not even sure if its true and if so, Im not holding my breath that itll pass. Things are crazy these days. In NY they said more then half who voted were republicans. Sure, they didnt have a lot of time to read over the bill fully but they still voted for it. That kinda stuff worries me.

    I think there are definately things for us to be concerned about regarding gun control. I just meant the Feinstein bill is not something that is going anywere and everyone in Washington knows it. It may be a starting point for some compromising though? But, I don't think AR's are going to be banned. I'm not as sure on high capacity mag's though?

    Thanks for the heads up.

    Listening to Blumenthal, it would have changed Newtown having an assault style weapon ban. Adam Lanza had at least 2 other handguns and a shotgun.

    They're clueless

    I agree, this bill is going no where.

    But don't get complacent. They will try to sneak something through and it may or may not be constitutional.

    Now a trigger lock would have prevented Newtown? Who has ever said one wasn't on it? Adam Lanza murdered his mother and stole her guns, could have very easily stolen her keys and removed them from a safe and taken trigger locks off. We'll never know the truth of what happened before he got in the car to pull off his cowardly act.

    Yea I liked that comment too. Also that now apparently there's no difference between an AR and a fully automatic. Or a 100 round mag is what is preferably used in all ARs. That Peirce Morgan is a tool.

    I wonder if they even realize that the "assault weapons" are small caliber varmint rifles. Atleast the vast majority are.

    I wonder if they know AR doesn't stand for Assault Rifle...

    Or jus because it holds 20/30 rounds you dont haveta shoot that many times. But appatently if you can you will.

    I can almost guarantee they dont know that.
