What ever the merits of the bill, the fact that D.C. citizens or their representatives have any say so over it is lame. So much for democracy.

The citizens of the D.C. voted for the gun ban. They did so, let them live (or not) with it. If they want to change the law, they can do so.

I don’t agree with the ban, but in that case, the people spoke.

Well, I like mayor bow-tie, but after Marion, I’d probably like almost anyone. And that’s just based on being a frequent visitor!

“NOT mayor Nose Candy. ”

According to the Constitution, the Congress runs the District of Columbia; NOT mayor Nose Candy. Therefore, the bill is valid.

Plus, it’s the right thing to do. Gun grabbing laws, Bah!

“By a vote of 250 to 171, the House passed the D.C. Personal Protection Act, which would end the District’s 1976 ban on handguns and semiautomatic weapons, roll back registration requirements for ammunition and decriminalize possession of unregistered weapons and possession of guns in homes or workplaces”

Well, it preserves some of the restrictions on gun ownership near the workplaces of these politicians. Whats good for the rabble is apparently not good enough for them.

Gunshine state ? That’s brillant! I think I’ll start referring to Florida by that name instead of using the plywood state. Thank ya Beau.

You are correct about Florida. Just to give you a hint of what a Florida neighborhood could look like? I live in a new development in Southeast Hillsborough County. Meet some of my neighbors. All within 1/1 mile of each other:

Me: Army Ranger 3rd Battalion/75th Ranger Regiment

Neighbors: 4 HCSO Deputies
Tampa PD
5th Group Special Forces
2 82nd Airborne
Marines
Airforce
SOCOM
CENTCOM
Receational hunters

In other words, jump bad in my hood if you want to. The difference between my neighborhood and one filled with thugs is that my neighbors have actually been trained to shoot STRAIGHT and they have REAL combat experience AND we can posse up in a heartbeat and be on the same sheet of tactical music to hunt your sorry behind down. Just ask the sicko prowler that found that out the hard way.

Beau,
Where you been? Hurricanes interfering with your web surfing time? I can always count on you to make me laugh hard enough that I’m in danger of fallin’ out of my chair

La Shawn,
From our past discussions, you know how I feel about this. I can imagine no legislation that might bring in check D.C.’s home invasion problem quicker than allowing law abiding citizens the right to protect themselves. As a cop, I know that when things are happening fast and furious, calling 911 accomplishes nothing more than allowing us to come clean up the aftermath. We cannot be everywhere at once, and even in small cities the average response time is not such that we can usually intervene while a crime is “in progress”.

If this gets past the Senate and gets signed into law, it will be a big step toward giving you D.C. dwellers a little more peace of mind. I’m sure though that the thought of this law going into effect is upsetting to some on the Council, especially Mr.Barry. After all, the risk portfolio of some of his closest friends would become untenable.

WE can’t have the great unwashed citizen to have a gun.
After all the only ones that can be trusted to carry guns are politicians, limosine liberals {movie stars} and the elite media.
They know what is good for us.

I have a barbeque chicken bone to pick with whomever said this: “DC voters outside the beltway aren’t exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer.”

I beg to differ………..3 words: Councilman Marion Barry back in da house!!!

Okay, you got me – 7 words. The DC voter is still brillant. The blind leadin the blind. Wo-hooo!!!

And until something liberal changes, I shall never again live in the self-defenseless N.E. corridor of the United States – I’ll take 8 hurricanes, every year in Florida, til I’m floatin in the Atlantic Ocean.

What am I, a deer waiting to be hunted by some thug that just got outta Lorton Reformatory? What’s worse? Black thugs know that other blacks the least likely to be packin.

Not in the Gunshine state!! We love shooting criminals.

Lola – Liberals are under the mistaken impression that people are actually good at heart; it’s the nasty guns that make them bad. If there were no guns, we’d allget along and liberals would have the socialist utopia they lust after.

I, not being a liberal, understand that people are basically bad to the bone. Consequently, the more a thing is forbidden, the more it is sought after. Criminals are named so for a reason: they commit crimes, i.e., they break the law. Law-abiding folks like myself will become criminals just like the criminals if we were to exercise our constitutional right to bear arms.

Backward city run by backward-thinking no-nothing bureaucrats.
