Feinstein signals attempt to filibuster National Right to Carry legislation

[Uxi]

It is hyperbole. Redonkulous anti-Republican statement typical of bwiese. The Libertarians in California are even more gimped than the Republicans. They have ZERO influence despite not caring who marries who or how that furthers the degradation of social mores.

The politics of winning governors in this State is a lame strawman. Who was the last Governor friendly to RTBA? If that's the litmus, this site is a lost cause. While being initially agreeable to conservatives on public employee unions and the budget, the governator grabbed his ankles on those, too. The public employee unions own State gubmint and they're not friendly to the RTKBA.

So what are we saying here? That if Republicans behaved more like Democrats, they would then be electable in CA? Well, duh.

As Uxi has pointed out, some have tried that and it hasn't worked out very well at all. Not for any particular interest group, or the state overall.

Right. Noone pretends that ALL Republicans are our friends. Most are, but many aren't. NO Democrats are our friends in this State on our primary issue at this site.

Senator Wright. Senator Lou Correa.

Right. Let's not pretend that ALL Republicans are our friends. Most are, but many aren't. NO Democrats are our friends in this State on our primary issue at this site.

1000000% correct! There aren't enough blue dog democrats in California. They overwhelmingly vote lockstep against us on the ENTIRE REASON WE ARE ON THIS SITE AND IT EXISTS!!!!

Next time you vote 'D' on a state election, then get another civil right trampled, shut up and take it, because what just happened is what you asked to happen. No amount of "They support my favorite social cause" bs apology is going to change that fact. You vote democrat in California, you lose gun rights. That's pretty simple to figure out, but some people still can't seem to grasp it.

Senator Wright. Senator Lou Correa.

Should I look forward to them having any influence in their caucus? Or just trying to hold the line against the majority that defeats them standing with all the Republicans?

It's not. The only Republican Governor candidate who's been able to win since 1994 was the pro marriage equality one (Arnie).

It is. Saying that people (in this case California republicans) who oppose gay marriage are "worried about who's doing what in the bedroom" is just like saying (like NYC Mayor Bloomberg) those who support Stand Your Ground laws support having a "license to kill".

Hardly Republican. Hollywood and Kenedies run strong with that one...

[HBrebel]

No, because the CA Republican party is more worried about who's doing what in the bedroom than on real substantive issues like taxes, business and guns.

The CA GOP has continually demonstrated they don't have the skill or IQ to get elected, and they even pay good money to lose elections they could win.

but is there at least a pro-gun dem running?

[radioman]

A rat is a rat, whatever you call it. republicans have f'ed us out of our gun rights, democRATS have f'ed us out of our gun rights. lets just face it, were f'ed in this state.....

...The Libertarians in California are even more gimped than the RepublicansThey have ZERO influence despite not caring who marries who or how...

That's mainly because most liberals (especially in this state) are grossly misinformed on what Libertarianism is, ad just write them off as "extremist" Republicans.
