Feinstein and others on Face The Nation today.

Not sure what to make of the latest media distraction, but moments like these no matter how frustrating(please remember that this is a poll of 50,000, from a select collection of communities I'm sure), reminds me that I PROUDLY I MAY ADD (no matter how much pride you may remove sometimes), still "Pledge allegiance to the flag, of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA, and to the REPUBLIC, for which it stands, one nation, UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, with LIBERTY, and JUSTICE, FOR ALL.

she makes a lot of errors , states little as facts and lies very often

IMO She is a loon , 100% a  L O O N

Instead of "Face the Nation" they should be facing a firing squad.

Just for proposing this she should be first fired from office. Next, she should be arrested by the FBI for treason against the American people. Then she should be tried in court. Finally, she should be at the absolute minimum sentenced to Leavenworth Prison for 100 years. This I consider to be showing mercy to this statist bitch.

Her and her types are one of the driving forces behind me deciding to leave CA for TN.

Statements like these make me uncomfortable participating in this conversation. This is a very informative site with extremely pro active knowledgable members. Be careful what you say. This is not a intelligent, nor useful statement. I feel statements like these do nothing but hurt our cause.

If hard times like those fall on this great state, will you stand your ground and raise your voice with us? Californians decided to let those rights go. Progress does not always mean moving forward.

On one hand, perhaps you make a good point.  On the other hand, keep in mind that even our Founding Fathers, the people who were originally responsible for creating this country, eventually decided that the time for working within the system was past and the time for using force had come.

 

I am not necessarily saying that such a time has come, for us, but the whole reason that we have a Second Amendment is because the framers of our Constitution realized that it was possible, even likely, that such a time would come.  The Second Amendment was never about hunting, home defense or owning a rifle for target shooting.  The Second Amendment was about the people having the weapons necessary to 'outgun' the government if it came down to it.  To deny the possibility that we or future generations might be in a position where such a proposition becomes reality is to deny the need for the Second Amendment in the first place.  Just a thought.

First let me say:
God bless our great nation and it's founding fathers for giving us the right to discuss our views in open forums!

I agree 100% with the logic of the second ammendment as well as all others. This is a Republic. It should be treason to try and go against it. HOWEVER... Post 9/11 ammendments made by our favorite politician made it very easy to make out lives hell with statements just like the one I was referring to. I'm sure alot of you were at the rally in Nashville. I feel that this is a step in the right direction. We as a people(myself included) were lazy with our political involvement and have stood by to watch our privacy be stripped(for our protection lol), our jobs outsourced(in the name of world economy), and our traditional practices deamed "offencive" why are we all not at the Capitol now, making our voices heard in unison. Surely our elected officials would be inspired to defend our rights. Please keep in mind, I think that if we are to remain quiet in front of our TV sets, instead of making our voices heard, we really have no ground to stand on. Simply believing in something is not enough.
