    Sounds good to me on the surface, haven't read the exact details yet though so TBD. If they'd start enforcing the laws on the books already it'd also be a nice start.

    Common sense out of a D finally.

    Joe Manchin, D-West Va., told Morning Joe on Thursday that his legislation made sense after Sandy Hook, and it "makes sense now." "If we're going to protect the rights of law-abiding gun owners, then we've got to stand up as law-abiding gun owners," he said, adding that Democrats had sometimes "gone way too far … on things they've wanted to ban," but that gun reform was "common sense."

    my prediction, iron-clad as ever: Repugs will block all new gun regulations, will work to loosen all existing gun regulations.

    "common sense" in political speech means "not thought through"

    These ers should actually
    do something useful instead of attacking their own people 24/7. Why not defeat Isis? Create jobs? No, all they want to do is around with my second amendment and start some
    . Worthless s.

    I wonder what the liberal response would be if the article as about "Senate Democrats Unveil Sweeping Free Speech Proposal" and wanted to regulate speech?

    What about it? It's not like free speech isn't without it's share of regulations already. The idea that cons utional rights are completely exempt from regulation is incorrect.

    The first amendment has regulations that limit it, in cases like yelling "Fire" in a crowd, or in school settings.
    The SCOTUS has stated that the second amendment isn't immune to regulation, and as a matter of fact it's actively regulated, for example, by requiring firearm permits.
    The fourth amendment also has it's share of regulations, including the border search exception to it's warrant requirement.

    Libs would celebrate. They hate free speech. See: the feminists who went crying to the UN recently because they got negative feedback on their YouTube videos, advocating for Internet censorship. Or all the left-wing hugboxes that are now getting rid of their comments sections because God forbid any of their readers get exposed to "wrongthink."

    None of these new proposed laws would have stopped any of the mass shootings. Anyone contemplating murder/murders (already first degree felonies) is not going to be deterred by misdemeanor gun possession laws.

    therefore, pass no gun regulations, don't enforce any gun regulations, and roll back any gun regulations

    2nd Amendment, es!

    40 Percent Of Americans Know Someone Who Was Killed With A Gun

    Black Americans are especially likely to know someone who was fatally shot





    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/...b0e66ad4c6bd2b

    the white supremacist/NRA/GOA/rightwingnut strategy of letting guns flow to blacks so blacks can kill blacks has been, continues to be brilliantly successful

    It Took Me Two Hours to Get My Hands on an AK-47. Welcome to America

    It's shockingly easy to get instruments of death

    It’s not hard to get your hands on illegal guns and rifles in America. It took me about two hours. I called a guy from the old neighborhood in LA, said something about a “piece”, and, hours later, I was staring at an AK-47 and an illegally modified AR-15, which were sitting on a kitchen table. Welcome to America.

    Admittedly, he was surprised at my interest in being strapped since it’s been a good minute since I was about the life, but when I explained I was simply curious to see how long it’d take for me to get a gat, he agreed to the idea. He had some handguns, too, he said, although I didn’t see ‘em. I took his word for it after seeing the AK-47 and AR-15, because those weapons leave an impression.


    Some of the weapons were smuggled in, while others were bought on the up and up – waiting period and all. Moving them is not his thing; he collects, and, on occasion, heads out to the desert with others to shoot. If I needed something, we could talk to another homie and with a few hundred dollars out of pocket, I’d be set. I passed on the opportunity.

    you're free to be an asshole and other sites are free to delete your asinine comments. calling it censorship is grandiose.

    Not to mention, the very first three words of the sacrosanct 2nd Amendment are "A well regulated..."

    Apparently that's written in invisible ink to the gun nuts.

    people forget that a well regulated militia meant not only that guns were registered with the authorites, but inspected by them. "the right to bear arms" was a phrase with mainly military significance. it went with military responsibilities.

    The doctrine of er, the fundamental right to possess firearms, is a judicial novelty.
