For Gods sake! They have litterally got hunting rifles listed on there! Bolt action rifles! What next? Muzzleloaders? Airsoft? How about worrying about something a little more important, like poverty, disease, over-spending, border patrol, etc, etc.... Morons!... 48053@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 07 Jan 2009 04:35:26 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#48052 It's almost as though, they are afraid of their own people, afraid we will finally lose it, and make them pay. I for one am sick and tired of my government telling me weather or not I can defend myself, and want them all out! I wish I could call this communism, but look at their paychecks! I am seriously worried about what their plans are after this apocalyptic act on society is complete, what are they planning to do next? First this, then the chip, then what? I hope they are ready for another kind of civil, or should I say, uncivil war in this country. For every one man left unarmed in this country, there will be ten of our enemies armed, what to do then? Self inflicted contraband chaos rebellion, and they think they will actually get away with it.... LMFAO!!!... 48052@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 07 Jan 2009 04:23:09 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#48029 They can go f**k themseleves.I will not give up one gun.... 48029@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 05 Jan 2009 20:03:00 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#48017 More useless infringement upon constitutionally protected God given rights. The vast majority of gun owners are die hard american patriots, not criminals. The first ban didn't do anything to reduce crime, the result of this one if implemented will be the same.... 48017@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 05 Jan 2009 13:14:50 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47999 The time has come to nurish the tree of liberty.... 47999@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 04 Jan 2009 19:32:19 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47998 Who amoung us will be the first pick a fight?

And if the elected even consider this bill with all the other issues impacting our country we need to remind them VERY LOUDLY that they are supposed to work for US, not against us. And as our employees they should be working on the truely pressing issues of our econimic collapse, runaway spending, energy, war in Iraq and Afganistan, and the middleast issue that has raised it's head again. CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES AND REMIND THEM WHO THEY WORK FOR!... 47987@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sat, 03 Jan 2009 11:32:23 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47971 Part II... The end result of the non-sense is that law abiding citizens and gun owners are going to be punished for the ignorance of our government. Criminals are not going to care about this ban or any other ban because they will have the resources to go around it. The government needs to quit tying our hands behind our backs and let us have our Constitutional Right to Bear Arms!... 47971@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Fri, 02 Jan 2009 22:10:42 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47970 Politicians do not care about the typical American citizen because they are not one. Politicians don’t have to worry about the average criminal vandalizing or breaking into their vehicles or homes. They live in areas that are upscale, low crime areas, have security guards and so on. They are not typical Americans in the least bit, but they make laws for us to follow. It’s hypocrisy. The President-Elect whom I did not vote for thinks that by banning “assault” rifles and various semi-automatic rifles and handguns that crime will be the thing of the past. Maybe in his small world it will be, but not the typical American’s world. Statistically “assault” weapons have the smallest percentage of use in crime. Like some others have said on the forum, they are too hard to conceal – which is true. They certainly cost more than the average pistol which is easily placed into a pocket or under a coat.... 47970@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Fri, 02 Jan 2009 22:10:12 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47960 The bill, and any bill like it, would be a disgrace. We Americans like our guns and liberties, GET OVER IT! If politicians are so afraid of us common folk owning weapons...maybe they should actually do their JOB and quit making everyone mad at them!... 47960@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Fri, 02 Jan 2009 12:43:07 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47949 You really don't want to be re-elected do you? Shotguns are to protect our homes, handguns are to protect ourselves, and "assault" weapons are to defend from our hand guns and shotguns from being taken by the communists in Washington. (the ones who sponsored this bill) Why don't you write a bill to ban the CIA -- their the ones smuggling the drugs into the country. Google "CIA Drugs".... 47949@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Fri, 02 Jan 2009 00:20:56 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47947 It's getting clearer to see how lefty's think when you see them protesting Israel's act of protecting themselves from attacks and they say nothing against the aggressors ( shame on those of us that would shoot a person breaking into your home to do you harm ) I give up on stupid people that think that way. May they regret their way of thinking in the future.... 47947@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 01 Jan 2009 19:49:09 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47944 Just remember....when they come for your guns, your supposed to give them the ammunition first !... 47944@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Thu, 01 Jan 2009 18:51:35 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47919 The second amendment states "The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed". If you want to follow the Constitution the decision on this bill is easy. But, our legislators don't want to follow the Constitution...they say its a 'flexible document'. That is, the Constitution says what they want it to say. Translate "don't you worry your little head, we know what's best for you". That's another big step towards tyranny. Vote out every legislator that votes for this treasonous bill.... 47919@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Wed, 31 Dec 2008 15:56:10 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47868 Paragraph (1) shall not apply to the possession or transfer of any semiautomatic assault weapon otherwise lawfully possessed under Federal law on the date of the enactment of this subsection. Means that if you already own it, you get to keep it, and if it makes you feel any better, the AK you spent $400 on six months ago would be worth thousands. Would I give up my "Assault Weapons"? No. Should these so-called "Assault Weapons" be banned? Hell No. Hopefully these legislators will realise that if possession of guns is criminal, then only criminals will possess guns.... 47868@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Mon, 29 Dec 2008 20:13:05 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47836 If guns cause crime, then matches cause arson!

They are tools. Tools can be used for good or for evil. Knives killed 1,796 people in 2007. Does that make knives evil and worthy of banning? Or are the abusers of these tools the evil ones? Laws cannot prevent evil doers from practicing their trade. I dare say no rapist ever changed his mind about his crime because he suddenly realized it was against the law.... 47825@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sun, 28 Dec 2008 14:42:33 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47798 What else would you expect from liberal politicians?

Does this sound like the American people want gun control? When voluntary gun turn-in amnesty programs see a 50% increase, I will believe Americans want gun control.... 47795@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sat, 27 Dec 2008 10:59:24 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47794 The government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any particular citizen.” In Bowers v. DeVito (1982), the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ruled, “[T]here is no constitutional right to be protected by the state against being murdered by criminals or madmen.” So much for police protection. The FBI Crime Report for 2007 indicates that less than one percent of crime related gun deaths were caused by assault weapons. More people were killed with knives, blunt objects, hands, etc. Want to compare the number of assault weapon deaths to drunk driving deaths? Maybe we should be banning alcohol.... 47794@http://www.washingtonwatch.com Sat, 27 Dec 2008 10:47:40 EST http://www.washingtonwatch.com/bills/show/110_HR_6257.html#47775 Mark feels threatened by armed americans.

If your a gun hater and it sounds like you are, cant you do better than talking about a gun loving dead guy? Or are you so liberal that it makes you feel better to do so? Why dont you bash Tom Selleck? Or why dont you praise Rosie "Fat Ass Lesbian" O'donnel, shes a gun hater too!
