Some members of the U.S. Congress are speaking up about their opposition to the various gun ban bills introduced in the U.S. Senate by gun ban zealot politicians such as Dianne Feinstein and Frank Lautenberg. Here is what a few members of the U.S. Congress are saying
on the subject:
U.S. Rep. Lloyd Doggett, said “protecting gun ownership is
not inconsistent with protecting our children from weapons of war in the hands
of the deranged.”
Sen. John Cornyn, said he “will continue to defend the
Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Texans”.
U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman, warned that Obama’s executive
orders “infringe upon the … right to keep and bear arms,” vowed “peaceable
legislative force” to reverse Obama’s “anti-gun sneak attack” with impeachment
to be considered if that failed.
U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith, a former chairman of the House
Judiciary Committee, said Obama ought to “focus on the underlying causes of
these acts including addressing mental illness and violence in the media.”
U.S. Rep. Pete Olson, called Obama’s proposal to ban
assault-style, semi-automatic weapons “nothing more than a red herring to
target the constitutionally protected liberties of law abiding gun owners.”
U.S. Rep. Randy Weber, said, “Restricting the rights of
law-abiding citizens only reduces their ability to protect themselves, and will
in no way deter those who act completely outside the law”.
U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, says the
Senate won’t consider ANY gun legislation for at least three months.
