And so it begins…
In an almost predictable move, notorious gun grabber Rep. Carolyn McCarthy is planning to introduce gun control legislation after the Tucson shooting and assassination attempt of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. This is a shameless political move and should be rejected outright.

By SHIRA TOEPLITZOne of the fiercest gun-control advocates in Congress, Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.), pounced on the shooting massacre in Tucson Sunday, promising to introduce legislation as soon as Monday targeting the high-capacity ammunition the gunman used.
McCarthy ran for Congress after her husband was gunned down and her son seriously injured in a shooting in 1993 on a Long Island commuter train.
“My staff is working on looking at the different legislation fixes that we might be able to do and we might be able to introduce as early as tomorrow,” McCarthy told POLITICO in a Sunday afternoon phone interview.
The idea that only the corrupt government and their subordinates should be allowed to stock pile ammo is absurd. If society collapses, what are citizens supposed to do to protect their families when the police are too busy protecting their own?
It is clear that people like Carolyn McCarthy and other infamous gun grabbers do not realize or do not care about the statistics that clearly show an INCREASE in crime in cities that have banned guns and restricted the sale of ammunition.
This shooting was a horrible tragedy and it would be a DISHONOR to the victims and victims families to put gun restrictions in place when Rep. Giffords supported the 2nd amendment herself and all statistics show that people kill people and that if anything, guns save lives.

Who cares? There’s little more that these anti-gun dummies can get away with.
Good luck taking on 100 million armed Americans with nonsensical, irrelevant gun laws based upon an event that could never have neen prevented anyway.
This former Marine shall die owning all of his guns.
Rather than making gun clips which will hold a maximun of 10 shots, why not make gun clips which hold a minimun of 250 shots. This would NOT viloate any current gun laws and would give everyone a good idea of who is packing and who isn’t.
Isn’t it a little strange that the Representative’s name ends in McCarthy, old Sen Joe McCarthy must be rolling over in his grave. Doesn’t she know is the gun laws in New York which didn’t protect her son and husband but who said the Commie Democrats had any brain they just want control of our lives.
