[Old Ironsights]

These guys are about to have their heads handed to them:

Look at how they are doing it too - via essential confiscation:

That's some Cheek.

Time for Congress (who has the REAL final say so in what happens in DC since it's not a State) steps up and shuts down that bunch of renegade facists...

OI,
Just read that. Nothing like an abuse of power by spinning the yarn their way. This entire country and legal system is so screwed up, the only thing that will straighten it out is whats going to happen this winter.------------Sixgun

Holy cow! They are gonna get sued, again! Morons.

To add to the stupidity, I'm sitting her trying to think of a true machine gun that even feeds from the bottom. Lessee...we got top, we got side...nope, no bottom (I am excluding the BAR). Idiots.

This time it will be a liability suit and hopefully it costs the city BIG $$$$$.

Remember the three girls (women) that got raped, and beaten and the city cops just drove on by. The courst, including appeals courst, all ruled the police do NOT have a specific responsibility to protect INDIVIDUAL citizens. Basically you're on your own.

If this happens to someone while DC has their guns, then their liable and I hope they have to redo their budget to pay for it.

It proves they will stop at nothing to enforce their communist views.

If we have a cold winter, I predict chaotic conditions here in the US of A. Mortgage lenders are already closing, food is at an all time high, independent truckers are barely making their truck payments, and lots of people are loosing their homes. It will cost a $1000 to fill up a home heating oil tank, about twice what it cost last winter. How many people can afford to do that every month? ----------------------------------Sixgun

Well, isn't this a fine kick in the teeth to Mr. Heller?

Of course, being DC, I'd have expected nothing less...

[Ysabel Kid]

Oops - just posted the same on another thread.

Doesn't surprise me one whit - but still PO's me!!!

It looks like we're headed for "Heller II"... hopefully it will clear up a bunch of the stuff left cloudy in the last round...

Well you can't change a wolf by put'n a sheepskin on it or can you?

[RIHMFIRE]

Well you can't change a wolf by put'n a sheepskin on it or can you?

nope.... you cant...
its time to skin the wolves....
and sue the $**T out of each and every one of the city
officials who denied him the permit....and the city itself....
Class action would be nice too! Fleece their wallets!

RSY...how about the ubiquitous Kalashnikov RPK? ...But more to the point, if D.C. is classifying any bottom loader as a MG, doesn't this fly in the face of the supremes ruling that a handgun is the most common s.d. weapon? How many autoloading handguns can you think of that DON'T load from the bottom?

[don Tomás]

How many autoloading handguns can you think of that DON'T load from the bottom?

That's OK, a guy just can't help but look very stud-ly strappin' on his C96...

Why does it take a lawyer to get someone their constitutional rights?

The only bottom feeding machine gun I can think of was the French Chuchat of WW1. All the rest that come to mind are assault rifles and subguns.

I would like to know if the sum total of all knowledge possessed by the DC authorities, when typed single space and 1 line per page, would encircle a cow flop.

don Tomas...oooh, a Texas jockstrap crossdraw!!!!!...love that pic. Thanks for the chuckle!
