Senator Diane Feinstein is planning to destroy the Second Amendment of The Bill Of Rights – in two steps.
- End the sale of guns
- Force all gun owners to register with the Feds.
Assault Weapons – Issues – United States Senator Dianne Feinstein
#2 will provide all enemies of the US (inside and outside the beltway) with a convenient way to locate all gun owners.
Feinstein is modeling her approach after Nazi Germany in 1938.
Feinstein also believes that global warming will destroy the planet.
Some stats:

Quote: Yes, you can look for trends, but the Centers for Disease Control already did that for you. During 2000-02, a CDC task force “conducted a systematic review of scientific evidence regarding the effectiveness of firearms laws in preventing violence, including violent crimes, suicide, and unintentional injury.” Here was their conclusion.
“The Task Force found insufficient evidence to determine the effectiveness of any of the firearms laws or combinations of laws reviewed on violent outcomes.”

Quote: the murder rate is historically low and is already trending downward. In fact, the murder rate in 2011 was the lowest since 1961: 4.7 murders per 100,000 people. In only 5 years since 1910 has it been lower: 1955-59, when it was only slightly lower at 4.5 or 4.6.
Quote: Today’s murder rate is essentially at a low point of the past century. The murder rate in 2011 was lower than it was in 1911.
And the trend is downward. Whatever we’ve been doing over the last 20-30 years seems to be working, more or less. The murder rate has been cut by more than half since 1980: from 10.7 to 4.7.
We can only speculate on what might be behind this trend, but I will point out a few interesting facts.
• From 1980 to 2000 our prison population more than quadrupled.
• From the 1980s to 2000, the number of prisoner executions more than quadrupled.
• From 1986 to 2006, the number of states adopting “shall issue” Concealed Carry permits nearly quadrupled.

Well any new law will have to get past Congress. And here something that may be positive:

Establishing a blue ribbon panel is usually a way to bury something…but it is led by Biden…??
We have been thru this song and dance with guns multiple times since the JFK assassination. Nothing really changes. With Republicans in control of the House, nothing is going to happen. It makes for good chatter at liberal cocktail parties and that is about it. “We need to end the culture of violence” . Good luck!
Andy DC – but we are now in the Age of the Regulators – and this will do what the lefties can’t get through Congress.
