Fire sale "loophole"

==============================================

My thoughts:
Democrat Dictionary:
Loophole [loop-hohl] or (ˈluːpˌhəʊl)
–noun
1) freedom

Householders are set to defy a law banning “old fashioned” light bulbs by exploiting a loophole in new legislation. Legislators want to eliminate that "loophole"

Loopholes can be dangerous to a totalitarian government.

So the wacko in Arizona purchased his gun legally, through an FFL, and passed a NICS check, yet they're crying about the so-called "gun show loophole"?

Even if it were illegal for private citizens to purchase firearms from other private citizens without a NICS check, it would not have prevented him from purchasing the gun he used.

All of these new proposed bills represent "feel good" legislation so that congress can go back to their constituents - most of whom either don't follow the news or take for granted what is reported in the mainstream media - and beat their chest that they have "done something" to reduce crime and prevent such a sensless killing from occuring again.

Sheesh.

I'm "Googling"

"Loophole"

"capacity clips"
"clips ban"
"Magazine ban"
"assault weapon ban"
"ban guns"

and posting:


Brady Campaign Democrat Dictionary:
Loophole [loop-hohl]
–noun
1) freedom

Usage: Householders are set to defy a law banning “old fashioned light
bulbs”
by exploiting a loophole in new legislation.
Legislators want to eliminate that "loophole"

Loopholes can be dangerous to a totalitarian government.

NOT every wacko uses this or that gun or magazine or knife.
EVERY SINGLE ONE of these crazies trying to kill others wears shoes
They help them get from place to place to hurt MORE people, and sometimes are used in escapes. Ban shoes.
(The TSA and airports will be safer too, they make you take them off anyway.)

How bout them "assault rifles?"
Oops, I mean "home defense rifles"
January 10, 2011 at 9:14p.m Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Office Deputies were dispatched to 3405 Farmosa, NW of Mission,Tx in Hidalgo County in reference to shots fired, home invasion by 4 to 5 male suspects. The owner shot at the intruders with his AK -47 hitting one of the suspects in the chest.
WAIT AK-47? isn't that one the Brady Campaign says has "no defensive use?"

Maybe it was an AR-15, wait no, it seems like only yesterday Dr. Suzanna Hupp, testifying before Congress reminded us of a man on his rooftop during riots defending his home and life with an AR-15 ... maybe it was something else.


How about them bazillion capacity ammo clips?
Are you aware there's no Hollywood one-stop-shot "smart bullet" with a guidance control system available to homeowners? Do you recall the Florida incident where police shot a criminal over 30 times yet he refused to fall down and quit shooting back?

Re: you deciding what I "need" and "may have."

Are you an elderly disabled handicapped man who has been held hostage twice, once by two armed men, another time by 5 armed men? No? Then I'm a better judge of that than you are, dontcha think?

How many hurricanes, evacuations and aftermaths or other natural disasters have you been through to know what I "need"? Not as many as I have? Then I'm a better judge of that than you are, dontcha think?

How many of those OPTIONS in your car do you NEED.
You do want us to decide what YOU "need" too right?
Got any ice cream in your freezer?
Please justify why you "need" it, I'm drafting a bill.

Please leave my freedoms alone, you loophole you, else justify a need for your ice cream ;-)

The Tucson shooting is starting to have suspicious similarities to the Reichstag fire.

Sadly, theres probably sickos in the brady campaign and the vpc that wish that it had happened earlier.

If you're suggesting that the left is using it to blame the Tea Party for murderous things that they (TP) didn't do, then you are absolutely right...not only that, you are basically describing the modern interpretation of the term Blood Libel.... Are you channeling Sarah Palin? :shock:

Now if you're suggesting the that the liberals "set the fire" (i.e. caused the killing) so they could blame the right, like the Nazi's set the Reichstag on fire so they could blame the Jews, then I'm gonna have to disagree. :nono:
