Feinstein said on CBS-TV's 60 Minutes, February 5, 1995, "If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States for an outright ban, picking up every one of them . . . Mr. and Mrs. America, turn 'em all in, I would have done it. I could not do that. The votes weren't here."[22]

"Banning guns addresses a fundamental right of all Americans to feel safe."
--U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein Associated Press 11/18/93

I'm sure there are more if a person wanted to dig through every speech she has made with regard to guns, but I have other things to do right now.

Would you really want that guy with a concealed weapon standing next to a little girl. Hoyt May 2012 #59

What do you know about him besides the fact he has an AK stock made out of a toilet seat? Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #61

Well, he appears challenged and someone who would like Ted Nugent, Zimmy, Hoyt May 2012 #63

Really? All that from one goofy picture? Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #64

Didn't you know our Hoyt's a practicing telepsychologist? friendly_iconoclast May 2012 #69

Well it ain't difficult when some yahoo is standing there with a toilet seat modified rifle. Hoyt May 2012 #70

The authors of those laws are just loopy. N/T appal_jack May 2012 #15

Gun crowd is not much different from Wall Streeters, banks and other such groups in that respect. Hoyt May 2012 #16

Changing a magazine is "immoral"? Johnny Rico May 2012 #19

Trying to get around laws is. That's what banks, the rich, etc., do. Hoyt May 2012 #22

What do you consider the intent of the bill to be? Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #25

It's not "getting around" the law. Using a bullet button is following the law. Johnny Rico May 2012 #26

No, compliance... sarisataka May 2012 #42

I'm sorry, we ain't talking tools here. Except for tools of the NRA and other right wing groups. Hoyt May 2012 #60

One of many reasons I'm glad I don't live in California. Johnny Rico May 2012 #11

So how many bullets do you think you need for self-defense, if that is what you will use gun for? Hoyt May 2012 #23

I don't know in advance, which is why it's better to have more rather than less. Johnny Rico May 2012 #24

you really just never do know, do you? iverglas May 2012 #30

No one ever knows in advance how many shots they'll need to fire in self-defense. Johnny Rico May 2012 #31

After all, the situation can't be predicted ahead of time Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #32

Exactly so. Given the choice, why would I defend myself with anything less than the most effective Johnny Rico May 2012 #33

That's why I have a rifle, shotgun and handgun with me at all times. Kaleva May 2012 #34

Fair 'nuf. Everybody finds their own balance Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #35

Yes. There is no one size fits all. Kaleva May 2012 #36

And as long as we all have the freedom to choose which path to go down, I don't have the slightest Johnny Rico May 2012 #41

This is what usually happens when non-technical people attempt to craft a technical fix... slackmaster May 2012 #13

emotion is all they have.... ileus May 2012 #14

Actually it is what happens when you try to appease a bunch of morally bankrupt people. Hoyt May 2012 #17

So we share a view on the gun-control lobby. n/t krispos42 May 2012 #20

Yes, Hoyt, that's exactly what the pro-control crowd is. Thanks for saying it. HALO141 May 2012 #21

Looks like a Freudian slip to me, but I do agree slackmaster May 2012 #27

I'm bookmarking this thread for that post alone. friendly_iconoclast May 2012 #49

Damn, surely you have better stuff to do than that and playing with your guns. Hoyt May 2012 #53

...and once again, you've forgotten that I don't own any guns. friendly_iconoclast May 2012 #55

In Hoyt's defense, this board would be a lot duller without him! Glaug-Eldare May 2012 #56

Also what happens when you get people like Hoyt calling up and yammering for gun control... Atypical Liberal May 2012 #77

Oh noes... Clames May 2012 #57

Extender devices with buttons? jpak May 2012 #66

Wow, haven't seen a pseudo-Freudian reference from you lot in a while. friendly_iconoclast May 2012 #68
