Senate fails to pass modest gun control bills. nm

Posted: Jun 21, 2016

WASHINGTON -- Just over a week after the worst mass shooting in American history, the Senate failed Monday to advance a pair of modest and popular gun violence reform measures.

One would have barred gun sales to anyone who has been on a terrorist watch list in the previous five years or who is "reasonably" suspected of posing a terrorist threat. Another would have tightened the background check system to cover the so-called gun show loophole and all internet gun sales. About 90 percent of the public favors such steps.

But neither of the proposals could get the 60 votes needed to advance.

This was all for show. We should make them define terrorist, because - some democrats called the Tea Party

terrorist. Make them explain due process and the term terrorist.

Again this is just for show, and the next time (and there will be) an Islamic terrorist does this they will blame it on Republicans. This is all for show, it's an election year.

Where is the immigrant control legislation? Or the term limits control legislation?

That part of the "gun show loop hole" failed. There is no gun show - loop hole. You have to go through a background

check just like in a store. I'm so sick of hearing that. In fact, a couple of liberals recently went to a gun show thinking they were going to exploit this "loop hole" and found out the hard way they had to wait for a check. Bet you don't hear that on MSM.

I was just reading a story about a member of the liberal media who went to - a gun store thinking he would fork over

the money and walk out with a gun. Well, they did a background check and he was DENIED because of an alcohol arrest and abusive towards his wife. He tried to cover that up in the story but his editor told he that he couldn't. Then he blamed the gun store saying the new he was a reporter.

In the real world, they would publish the names of the real terrorist - but we live in fantasyland now

with almost no reference to reality.

The real terrorists are Islamic, not guns, not Republicans.

Maybe we should publish the names of Muslims in the US Govt. - A friend shared a list with me

recently.

The list includes CIA director John Brennen who converted, Valerie Jarrett, - Hillary's top adviser Huma Abedin

is a Muslim, whose mother and brother are still involved in the now outlawed Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt!

Assistant Secretary for Policy Development for Homeland Security, Arif Aikhan, is a Muslim.

Homeland Security Adviser, Mohammed Elibiary, is a Muslim.

Nancy Pelosi announced she will appoint Rep Andre Carson, D-Ind, a Muslim , as the first Muslim lawmaker on the House of Representatives Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence! It would make Carson the first Muslim to serve on the committee that receives intelligence on the threat of Islamic militants in the Middle East ! He has suggested that U.S. schools should be modeled after Islamic Madrassas, where education is based on the Quran!!!

This is just a handful.

This is just bulls**t! Sorry for you. - nm

He acts like a petulant child and then pulls something whacko just to prove he's got power. Visualize a 2-year-old stomping his foot and carrying on. That's Barack Hussain Obama when he doesn't get his way. Can't wait for his you-know-what to be out of the White House.

Mea culpa! I can't believe I fell victim to the BS spewed by the media in 2004 when at the Dem convention, they were all crowing about the speech he gave, i.e., "Barack Obama" Senator from Illinois, RISING STAR in the Dem party who will be future presidential material." Mea culpa, yes I was brainwashed by the media starting then. Too late for me in 2008. Then I had no choice in 2012. I just couldn't vote for Rummy (oops, excuse spelling). Well, the media still sucks, worse than ever. I will vote for Donald Trump. He calls it like it is. No more political correctness for me, and NO MORE BRAINWASHING BY THE MEDIA for me either.

Your post could have been mine! - anon

Pulling executive orders out of the sky, executive order - 11001 allows the gov to take over

[ In Reply To ..]
health education and welfare functions.

Executive Order 11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.

Executive Order 11004 allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate and establish new locations for populations.

Executive Order 11921 allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit, and the flow of money in U.S. financial institutions in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when the president declares a state of emergency, Congress cannot review the action for six months.

That just a few from 2012.

Do you want the list of regulations he has passed that - are unconstitutional or
