This calls for my shocked face.
Dianne Feinstein announced Wednesday that she’s re-entering the battle over gun control during her keynote speech to the California delegates to the Democratic National Convention.
Feinstein was president of the San Francisco’s Board of Supervisors on what she calls that city’s “day of infamy” in 1978, when a former colleague shot and killed Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone. Since then, Senator Feinstein has been one of the most vocal proponents of gun control on Capitol Hill.
She promised California delegates she’d return to Congress to reintroduce “an updated assault weapons bill.”
At the delegates' breakfast, she said that, "Weapons of war do not belong on our streets, in our classrooms, in our schools or in our movie theatres."
Feinstein co-sponsored an assault weapons ban signed into law in 1994, which expired 10 years later.Link
And ironically, I'm going 'assault weapon' shopping this weekend.

ReplyDeleteMe too, and I'm getting one of those Nikon scopes with the BDC reticle. Can't wait for Elk season.
Admit it. A helot shouldn't be carrying a hoplite shield.
ReplyDelete@Thersites - Agreed....as any Homoioi would agree.
ReplyDelete@SF - After spending half my life behind an AR [except for my M21/24 time]...I'm getting an AR of my own this weekend, provided I can find the base I want and then start owing Magpul a kidney.
How about a Mothax? Would he agree?
ReplyDeleteWith it, or on it!
Or as my favorite poet, Archilochus would say...
: I don't give a damn if some Thracian ape strut
Proud of that first-rate shield the bushes got.
Leaving it was hell, but in a tricky spot
I kept my hide intact. Good shields can be bought. ;)
