More Crap to deal with

How do gun control opponents out spend Bloomberg? I know reporters just take the lazy way, especially if they drank the cool aide...

It will never end. These turds keep popping up and we keep flushing them down. Unfortunately, we keep loosing a chunk of our rights every time they pass some ******** resolution.

Opponents of gun control outspent gun control advocates in the 2011-12 election cycle by about $800,000 to $21,000, institute figures show.

What??? Doesn't anybody check their numbers?????

Astroturf Bloomberg group...just like the Action Moms. Bet this one was "purely spontaneous" and "formed in a Senate Cloakroom" or something to that effect.

No member list, no website....just a brand new Facebook page and a press release.

Hmmm. "Some 200" state legislators? Out of 7500? Lol. These folks keep pushing and pushing. They won't be happy until their own heads are displayed on pikes along our interstate highways.

Gun Control is Dissent Control

[ChaosFist]

Much like how Yeager would say that the root word of 'gunfight' is not 'gun' it is 'fight', the key word of the phrase 'gun violence' is and should be 'violence'. To me if one were concerned with with stopping gun violence that person should be primarily concerned with what causes a person act violently against another, or in the most gripping of news, several other people. Gun control is nothing but a mere stop gap to remedy 'this situation', it has and will fail again to remedy violence in a society; ours or any other.
This coalition of lawmakers seems like a nebulous threat at best; how many 'coalitions' exist these days to push one agenda or another, or simply funnel money to such issues?
