In reply to the discussion: Republicans Allow Potential Terrorist Buy Guns Legally?!?! [View all]CajunBlazer
(5,648 posts)Anytime you can make your political opponents look like major hypocrites, it is a job well done! And it succeed brilliantly.
It demonstrated just how far the "protect guns rights at any cost" politicians will go to toe the NRA party line. When the "we will do anything to protect you from terrorism, even strip you of you rights" Republicans will even risk allowing potential terrorist to buy weapons, it demonstrates to everyone in the country just how scared the Republicans are of the NRA.
And don't give me that "due process" crap - the Republicans who voted against those two bills never gave a damn about due process before. They used fear tactics to scare the American people into allowing them to pass laws which violated the rights of Americans citizens and many others, all of the name of protecting Americans from terrorism. Now, all of sudden, they don't want deprive potential terrorist of their ability to buy guns legally because of due process. That's hilarious. Everybody, and I mean everybody knows that is pure BS.
