Senate does right: NO expanded checks

Let us pray that the Boston terrorists bombs are not in any way connnected to a homegrown "guns right fringe group" or we are in for symbolic posturing and oneupsmanship like we've never seen before.
 
Just to be clear, Toomey's amendment to S.649 was defeated. The original expanded NICS bill is still alive. We now have to pressure Toomey to NOT support this bill without his amendment. As long as the Republicans threaten to filibuster, it will not pass, since they don't have 60 votes, but if this goes to a straight up and down vote, they only need 51 votes, which they have.
 
LOL...just watched it. They had it on Cam & Co. and on the local news. The basic tone was....we were all "Bad Americans" for defeating this.

Sadly, both VA Dem's voted for it. They didn't get my vote before, nor will they ever.
 
I'm so sick of seeing the POTUS dragging those poor families around, I could puke. And Gabby Giffords needs to go to the shooting range with her husband to try out his new AR.

He didn't get the AR, the dealer cancelled the sale.

The POTUS's news conference just about made me lose my lunch - pitiful!
 
Today i again feel proud to be an American. they are making progress in finding the scumbag behind the Bombing and our rights have not been infringed upon. i see my Iowa reps were split which i knew they would be. Thank you Grassley. you will continue to get my vote. Harkin, you will continue to not get my vote and hopefully others in this state will figure it out next election. And with that being said. IM GOIN TO THE RANGE TO CELEBRATE.
 
The prez said this was round one. Maybe, just maybe they will realize that a firearm is not behind every trajedy that occurs. Wishful thinking anyway.
