Meanwhile the dems are conducting their grilling of gun manufacturers
Some real gems in this

Quote
how many more children have to die before you will stop selling “weapons of war” that are the “weapon of choice in most mass murders”
Quote
Rep. Stephen Lynch of Massachusetts, who took issue with the fact that many manufacturers allow for firearms to be bought on credit or using payment plans
Quote
ep. Katie Porter of California, meanwhile, tried to make the case that gun companies are willfully ignoring “safety features” like fingerprint scanners that would identify authorized users before a gun could be fired.
Quote
n her closing statement, Maloney asserted that she invited gun makers to today’s hearing to apologize to the victims of mass shootings and to promise to stop the sale of “assault weapons”

What is the legal requirement for people to attend these hearings? Both sides make them a show where congressionals make speeches and play "gotchya!" People should be able to refuse to attend them with no legal consequences. The Congressionals can do the whole show without whatever "witnesses" they demand attend.

Again, why bother attending one of these hearings?

Edit: Also, I couldn't understand her screechy voice or the voice of the progressive supremacist terrorist, but the tattoo they were referring to is the valknut. It appears to be a symbol of interest to my heritage, and even commie pinko wikipedia doesn't appear to classify it as a "hate symbol".

Oh boy.

Pagan religion lesson first: followers of the Norse traditions are called Asatru. The volknut is one of the symbols they use. And there's a small (but vocal and VERY visible) subset of Asatru that are virulently racist...

Ban assault weapons because white supremacy is on the rise

As white supremacy and hatred are on the rise, gun manufacturers have gotten rich off of a seemingly endless string of tragedies.

It's time for an assault weapons ban to protect our communities.

They don't care since it appears they're going to get whacked in Nov anyway so they're going for broke.

They're slipping in a package calling for more police funding so if anyone votes against the bill they'll be labeled anti-police by the dems and MSM.

HR-1300 includes a rule change on voting. Not clear what yet but I suspect [tinfoil] they want it in before voting on 1808

Update on the voting rule change tacked on to 1300 which passed BTW 100% along party lines.
Removes the 24 hour requirement on bills otherwise they couldn't vote on 1808 today.
Don't quote me on this but I think it was tacked on by Pelosi.

I read the progressives were screeching about police funding.

Pelosi pulled the police funding out of the bill to get enough votes.

Voting on HR-1302 right now. My understanding they changed the HR number of 1808 due to some technicality.
