I've said all along their real focus is going to be Immigration Reform. They want it bad because they think they can turn TX blue over time if they can get enough illegals to legal status and register them. If they can accomplish this they will control the White House, the House, The Senate and in time the SCOTUS. Once they control everything they can push their agenda ahead at full steam. We will be powerless to stop them.

was this all fueled by the tea party to seal the fate of the Democrats, since they have been giddy on their own presidential success, i wonder if they have been egged on by the tea party just to watch them burn in the end.

You don't get it, there are MANY who see this as a priority and legitimate use of time.  We call them leftists, and gun control carries a lot of weight with them.  We have no debt problem, just a gun problem!  The icing on the cake for them is that it totally puts a thumb in the eye of of their worst enemy (you).



I hope it dies, and when it does, I HOPE every single (D) in an unsafe district feels the consequences of the past 3 months of pushing civilian disarmament.

This is my expectation, as well. It will take years to implement and oversee, but they'll make it happen if they can. The Republicans will go right along with it probably.

AWB2 is not dead, it has just been stripped off the main bill.
It can still come back as an amendment or as a stand alone proposal.
Right now it looks like UBC has a better chance of passage without being attached to AWB2.
One more mass shooting and AWB2 will be back and will probably pass the Senate.
Only the GOP House "leadership" can stop this crap, and it is looking like they will roll over for UBC.

It was all a big end-around distraction. They will look like they are back-pedalling to "settle" for UBC and our remaining Republican masters will deem this action "reasonable" and will go along for the UBC ride in an attempt to show that they are willing to work with their colleages from the other side of the aisle.

This was my guess from the start. They were aiming high with the attitude of "you never know!" hoping that just maybe an AWB could pass, yet all along UBC has been the 'real' end goal.

You are both right and wrong.  Right about none of this being an accident, wrong about ubc
Being the second floor on the way to registration... Ubc are the back door of registrations.

Do not let your guard down!  I remember reading an article a couple months ago where she said she already knew it would not be in the bill and that Reid would let her add it as an Amendment...just like she did in '94.  

And she has restated it today. Feinstien says she will add it onthe floor as an Amendment just like in '94 where she got her way.  Congress is really our hope and we know how awesome they are!?!?!?!?!?

i think they over reached.  



They thought public sentiment would be a tidal wave against "assault weapon" ownership after 6 year olds become the target.  They put the "never let a crisis go to waste" to the test.



They also didnt fear a backlash from the voters.  I dont believe any of them really thought back to 1994.  After all, ramming Obamacare down the throats of the American people was supposed to drive him out of office and it didnt.  I think the Dems thought this is a different electorate

That is the talking point that news stories keep repeating; but they can agree to allow a certain number of amendments from each side without filibuster.  Remember, Feinstein didn't have 60 votes in 2004; but she still got her ban renewal amended to the NRA's S. 1805 with a simple majority vote.  We need to keep our eye on these guys.

They think they are doing the right thing.  Everybody likes to recite the part where Clinton talks about the AWB killing Dems in 1994; but if you read that whole passage, Clinton doesn't regret the decision at all. He thinks he is a hero for "standing up to the NRA.".   They have done nothing but repeatedly step on their own dick this time around.  They are doing it because they are true believers.

They will accept an outright AWB but that's not really the plan. The plan is to incrementally ban all firearms ownership and the left has patience. This Kabuki theater with Feinstein was to firm up the base and create pressure. She had no illusion that it would pass writ large. This model is the same as the political strategy that the left uses. They are in this for the long game.

No one cares about that, It's been out there that he didn't.  For god's sake there is a video of the cops taking a rifle out of the trunk of a car and clearing it with a side charging handle.  (SKS?)   and unless you can take on the MSM (propaganda) to get your word out you will be labeled a Newtown 'Truther" and then ridiculed.  

The whole house of cards seems to be getting shaky and like the poster above said they are killing the dollar and what bigger outrage can they cause other than attacking the 2A?  They knew it would keep us occupied while they rob us blind some more.  

Having said that I do think they are serious about the "gun control" but it's only a piece of the puzzle.

But everyone needs to keep writing their reps and hope for the best because that is all we can do at this point.  Voting them out?  look at the voter fraud in the last election, if they wnat someone to stay in power they will pull strings to make that happen.  

Whole game is rigged, and people who think it isn't are blind.
