Watching now-disarm vets so they cannot uphold their oath when the SHTF. Nice...

[glockman19]

129,000 Veterans lose their 2A because of the VA and NICS, Only 200 have appealed and less than 12 were not reversed

[VAReact]

You don't NEED these guns -it's a Bill of RIGHTS, not a bill of needs, you DB

[VAReact]

Pictures of tha children will do it, right?

[CHIEFone]

yeah this stuff is sickening

[glockman19]

Lindsey Graham...Against Hi-cap Ban, Assualt Weapons Ban, Background Checks.

Hi-cap mag ban will fail, Security Officers in Schools.

Understands an AR-15 is NOT a M-16/M-4 select auto, Assault Weapons Ban will not pass. AR-15 is a semi-auto covered by Heller.

Background Checks will fail, sites NICS failures, pushes his Grassley/Cruz/Graham bill.

Go after Criminals, not law abiding citizens.

[Kopis]

Yes Medic, they have a bill about straw purchases and they want to add the Machin Toomey too it.

[Kopis]

Aye 47 No 41 now by my count.

McCain Voted Aye


41 Nos, it's done Republicans are clapping and shaking hands.

1 amendment down, 7 to go.

[KrizB]

McCain Voted Aye

The Senators against the bill should have bought him dinner, it worked for the President.

[ASTMedic]

Nice. Very nice. I'm really pissed about yesterday's votes here in Cali so this gives me some good vibes.

[stphnman20]

Wasn't counting but they started to clap. Assuming it passed.
