The Diana DeGette Guide to Gun Safety

I am so happy for this article, because now I finally understand how those awful "assault" weapons work.

proton pack heh?

It's really sad that my 11 year old knows more about firearms and how they function than an elected official.

She forgot to mention that it should not be used while in the shower or bath tub because you might shock yourself.

What do we think the life expectancy of her political career is?

Did you miss the satire?

I think it's funny, but I wonder if it's appropriate for a Congressperson to make fun of a colleague. Yes, she deserves it, but still. The approach might turn a lot of people off.

Not at all. I was joining in, apparently unsuccessfully.

Yes. Yes, it is.

Eh, maybe. It could just as easily get people people talking about how our politicians are making and passing laws concerning things which they know nothing about.

Absolutely she deserves it. This is the same woman who told an elderly constituent who was pleading with her to not support the magazine limit legislation that he'd probably be dead anyway, and that he didn't need a high capacity magazine because the Denver PD response time is three minutes............when seconds count.

She's not only stupid, she is deliberately stupid, which makes her evil.

We're in a rhetorical war for our rights and our lives with enemies who, giving no quarter to us, deserve no quarter from us. We need to be in it to win it. Being nice to our enemies is like being polite to a mugger. Their lies, their stupidity, and their evil intent need to be challenged, highlighted, and ridiculed.

[baldeagle]

Good points, TAM and VM177. You've convinced me.

[JJVP]

She forgot the thingy that goes up.

Absolutely.

Evil deserves no mercy whatsoever. Evil deserves to be crushed. Completely and totally.

[woodsong]

But what about that thingy that goes up?

Not only is DeGette a colleague, she's also a DEMOCRAT.

You GO Girl!!
