Feinstein: All Vets Are Mentally Ill And Government Should Prevent Them From Owning Firearms
During the Senate Judiciary meeting today to markup a potpourri of bills designed to deny the American people their rights under the Second Amendment and disarm them, Senator Dianne Feinstein opposed an amendment to her so-called assault weapons ban legislation that would allow veterans to continue buying firearms the bill would outlaw. Feinstein basically said all veterans have PTSD and should have their Second Amendment stripped. In response to the amendment, she said the following:
this adds an exemption of retired military. As I understand our bill, no issue has arose in this regard during the 10 years the expired ban was effect and what we did in the other bill was exempt possession by the United States or a department or agency of the United States that included active military. The problem with expanding this is that you know with the advent of PTSD, which I think is a new phenomenon as a product of the Iraq War, its not clear how the seller or transferrer of a firearm covered by this bill would verify that an individual was a member, or a veteran, and that there was no impairment of that individual with respect to having a weapon like this. So you know I would be happy to sit down with you again and see if we could work something out but I think we have to if youre going to do this, find a way that veterans who are incapacitated for one reason or another mentally dont have access to this kind of weapon.
The Corporation is a Legal Person. Get Over It www.professorbainbridge.c...l-person-get-over-it.html ... Jan 21, 2010 In a Slate column prompted by Citizens United v. FEC, entitled The Pinocchio Project: Watching as the Supreme Court turns a corporation into a .....
The corporation was created specifically to shield PERSONS engaged in commercial activity - fundraising, btw, is a commercial activity - from PERSONAL liability. It took a very twisted contortion of logic to conclude that an entity created, by law, to be separate from a person to shield a person from personal liability, IS a person, itself...and it takes a moron to believe it...
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
She won't have her way and it's the output of a simple mind that would believe otherwise...the biggest fear mongering group in the US is the NRA...
I doubt that it will go anywhere but with the amount of losers currently in the House and Senate you never know how the vote will go... (that's the sad part)..
You know what would really be nice is if we didn't have to suffer simple minded assholes like her, but there are so many no information voters out there getting rid of them is almost impossible... Look who just got re-elected in November for the perfect example!!

Warren had all the help that she needed from her opponent...Scott "Just Look At Her!!" Brown...
You would have thought the people of Massachusetts would be sick and tired of being screwed over by the Democrat "faux elites" but I guess not... but then again it may have been voter fraud hmmmmm...
Glad I don't live in that schitthole..

Yep. Cruz was reduced to Classroom Snot who won't get the birthday party invite...
She was pissed because he called out her "stupidity" (lack of knowledge and respect for the Constitution) and so she "Libbed" out at him...
His questions underscored his own lack of understanding of the 1st Amendment. There are laws that reduce speech from a plenary proposition to one that does have boundaries...libel...public safety...would Cruz argue that parade permits are an infringement on free speech? What's even more ironic is that he clerked for Rehnquist while Rehnquist, Scalia and others were running amok over 1A...
I'll believe that a corporation is a person 1 second after Texas executes one...
What did you do to provoke these dedicated public servants?
I'll bet you did your asshole act, right?
He's too funny. Not an ounce of taking responsibility for his own actions from that one. Do you think he was under Nurron's skirts, hiding from them too?
Almost every country in the Middle East is awash in oil, and we have to side with the one that has nothing but joos. Goddamn, that was good thinkin'. Esso posted on 2012-01-13 7:37:56 ET
Speech is any expression of belief or a means used to communicate a message.
Marches and demonstrations is an expression of belief if they are for a purpose and protected under the First Amendment.
Porn is an communication regarding one's sexulality and is also protected by decissions by the Supreme COurt as speech under the First Amendment.
Speech is communication. It is something much more complex than verbal, written or sign language conveying meaning.
And speech can be unconstitutional if you shoot up people for a political message, yell fire in a theater, or threaten someone. Speech has limits and the SCOTUS has ruled this is so if it is something that causes or can cause physical harm to people or endanger them.
You don't like the fact we have a system of law where court cases creat precidents that establish limits. But in this quirt of yours', your argument is with the SCOTUS, not us.
We just try to get the facts through your rather thick skull when we argue with you on a topic like this.
Feinstein is as fine of a Senator that this nation has ever seen and her *bitch* slap of Ted Cruz is an absolutle classic...
You're delusional (no surprise) if you think Cruz's schooling of the senile senior Senator from California on the meaning of the US Constitution amounts to a *bitch slap* against him.
To me it doesn't matter what wrapping *Moron* comes in.
" Cruz started out -- and then asked whether the First Amendment should "only apply" to certain books or the Fourth Amendment should only protect certain people from unreasonable searches.
Abortion is legal until it's banned. Then we need to be generous with reconciliation between those pro and con.
To keep warring invites the prospect ofit remaining legal, or if outlawed relegalized when vengeful people like you torment and piss off the pro abortion people to rally and to relegalize it if it is outlawed.
You jut do not have a grasp on how to win politically and then keep the win secure.
The world is not black and white, bucko.
And your insults make you look immature and shallow, and only amuse me secure in the knowledge you are only hurting yourself with such childish behavior.
Back up your statement with what you mean. Otherwise I have no idea what you talk about.
I have followed her career since she became Mayor of San Francisco, and I agree with everything she's done.
(That doesn't surprise me either)...
Lets see....
1). She's a Democrat
2). She's for gay marriage
3). She's for abortion
4). She's for restricting peoples freedoms and liberties thru legislation, all aimed at furthering her career and making her purse fatter at taxpayers expense...
5). She can't seem to be a law abiding citizen (campaign contributions and ethics violations from her own legislation)...
Talk about lacking morals, need I say more??
"Those who don't know history are destined to repeat it."
Cruz is going to do the quickest crash and burn this side of Norm Coleman...
That all depends on how well he handles the LSM (Lame Stream Media) attacks... If he buckles under then I would agree with you, but if he makes them look like the fools they are then he will be fine...
