Posted: 1/29/2013 11:56:28 AM THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT This photo was taken 1/28/13 at the Hartford Connecticut Public Hearing on new proposed gun legislation where thousands of CT residents turned out with over 1300 registering to give testimony. Those in attendance were overwhelmingly 2nd Amendment supporters. Seen in the photo is State Senator, Assistant Majority Leader, and gun ban proposal coauthor, Beth Bye. While the other legislative officials in attendance all listened intently to testimony given from both sides of the fence, Bye spent hours playing on Facebook, posting and chatting with friends, and blatantly ignoring all testimonials which opposed her stance.

This needs to be plastered through he news... oh wait, their agenda is the same as hers- promote mindless gun control while ignoring pro-gun logic. Nevermind.
