AWB dead

Good news. Still, I wouldnt celebrate just yet. Politicians are a sly and crafty bunch. Underhanded back room double dealing is an unfortunate reality of todays government. I await further development with jaded optimism but good news none the less.
 
I knew Harry wouldn't touch that bill with a ten foot pole. These leaders of ours always take care of their own interests first, in this case we all benefit.
 
You folks are well ahead of me, I tried to post this here, hahahahahahaha

Good news for now!!!
 
Regarding the AWB, don't ever pop the champagne. We're just one more mass shooting away from congress changing its mind on this issue. Note what almost happened at UCF in Florida with that student planning such an event. No, the AWB is not dead, just dormant waiting for an excuse to come back to life. Like it or not, living with uncertainty (regarding gun laws) is the new normal.
 
They never give up. Please remember that. Even more dangerous, this will be part of a "bait and switch" routine where they cry about the AWB to your face and then slip a knife in your back with something else. Most likely a magazine capacity limit.
 
Now is the time to remember who started and pushed for the awb and remember who stood with us and who stood against us and vote vote vote if they are not for our 2nd amendment rights don't vote them back in . Now is the time to try and get legislation to further protect our 2nd amendment rights. Keep writing and calling all of our politicians and let them know that we want our 2nd amendment rights protected and if they can't do it we will vote someone in who will .
 
I do know that next election....I will personally talk to each canidate and ask them how they stand on the Constitution and specifically...the second amendment and what their understanding of "Not to be Infringed" and see it they understand what that means. I do not care if they are Republican or Democrat or Independent...that is the first screeing test for me....after that...I will look at balancing a budget like I have to and not spend beyond "Our" means. We need to question everyone that is now in office (I have been) and get a solid answer out of them on where they stand. So far, I have one politicion that will not answer where they stand on AR-15's and high capacity magazines...just said he supports the second amendment. If they can not commit to what they really believe in...they are against the second amendment....leaving us with sling shots is not supporting the spirit or intent of Article 2 of the Bill of Rights. We need to bail out this boat next election. It is our own fault that we are in the position we are in today and I am as guilty as everyone else. I need to do a better job of researching who is running and what they believe to be true. We also need to push our own Canidates for office to get people in that truely support and defend the constitution and mean what they say. We need to be forever vigilent.....The transparency of this administration is just now becoming crystal clear and we are only one mass shooting away from the next attack on our freedom. The dance is not over yet and we need to tidy up what has been started so that at least the next generation understands that the People expect elected officals to support and Defend the Constitution of the Republic. We can accept no less. Guns are our liberty teeth and we need to be as well armed as anyone that thinks they can take them away. We are in a good position, we have the numbers...all we need is the will and courage to support the Constitution just as many patriots before us have. No price is too high to pay for our Freedom and they need to know that we will pay any price to preserve the Constitution and our freedom. As they say in NH. "Live Free or Die" My Motto will be "Live Free or Fight Like Hell" We will never surrender our Freedom or our guns...I hope the government gets it right.

I hope we can all attend ralleys at our state house when unconstitutional bills are being proposed that infringe on our freedom and let our voices be heard. It is only by letting our elected officals know that we will not accept any infringement on our Bill of Rights that we can make a difference, being passive is the same thing as giving them free rein to do what every "they want" instead of holding their feet to the fire. Our elected officals need to know that they will answer to "the People" for their actions and we expect them to honor the Oath of Office. We all need to become active in defending or rights....or lose them.
 
Great news. Yipee.... Ok, celebration over. Watch Harry with a laser like focus because he is up to something, count on it.

Several hundred other bills are percolating up the various local, state and federal political landscapes so now is not the time to do anything but move on to the next front (and keep looking over our shoulder). As someone eloquently stated, it isn't dead it is dormant.

I do hope that our illustrious politicians hold the line. Any small compromise will only embolden and encourage. No to all of it with the current crop of Pols in DC. As Nancy Reagan perfectly put it....Just say NO.
 
The federal Government does not have the power or Authority to over ride the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. I do not think some people even read the Constitution or understand the limits it places on the Government. As long as our Sheriff's and law enforcement officers understand the Constitution and Bill of Rights, it does not matter if Washington gets it or not. Some elected officals...Finestein comes to mind,....need to get educated because they are wasting their time on something that they do not have the authority to enforce. They need to be educated or removed from office. Many local Sheriffs understand what the constitution says and many are saying they will arrest and fereral agent that tries to enforce any unconstitutional law in their area of jurstiction. Not to be Infringed was written into the bill of rights by James Madison for just the purpose that is happening right now with the Federal Government trying to overstep their authority. We have the power to stop them cold. The states are not powerless and they are also guided by the constitution. Bottom line...is "We the People" will not have any unconstitutional laws imposed on us and they do not have the power to take our arms from us, we are Home Land security and the defenders of our Constitutional rights....along with the Sheriffs and our local law enforcement.
 
Our sweetheart Mrs. Feinstein couldn't get her own way on National stage, now she will direct her fury towards her beloved state's residents.

Oh God!!!

:(
 
Before this is over you are going to see people getting educated about what the Constitution is, and the powers it gives to the federal and State Governments and the limitations of the power the Federal Government has. The president is not the center of Power for the United States..."The People" hold the power and the Federal Government needs to be reined in by the people. I do not know how many are familar with the Constitution ...but take a look at Sheriff Mack and what he has done and is doing and what is being done at the Local Level to rein in the Federal Government. The Power come from the people and the Constitution Limits the federal Governments Power. What happens is up to us...not elected officals that think power and control over us is unlimited....they do not have unlimited power over us...they serve us not the other way around.

We must not lose our vigilance, during the pass of FOPA (Firearm Owners' Protection Act), some congressman from NJ inserted the Hughes amendment, so no more automatic weapon can be produced for civilians since 1986.

I agree 100% that we should maintain vigilance. Yes, things look good right now and hopefully there will not be a new AWB.

Let's move forward cautiously.
