WASHINGTON — House Speaker Paul D. Ryan, R-Wis., said Tuesday that Republican leaders had no plans to advance a bill that would make it easier for Americans to purchase gun silencers.
The focus on the silencer legislation, which passed a House committee last month, was magnified Monday after the Sunday night shooting in Las Vegas that left at least 59 dead and hundreds injured.
“That bill is not scheduled now; I don’t know when it’s going to be scheduled,” Ryan said. “Right now we’re focused on passing our budget.”
These are the times to see who is a Fair Weather Pro Gun Legislator. You may want to contact your elected critter and politely remind him/her you do vote, not the Democrats.
Sunday night’s shooting in Vegas is – with as much info as I have – the weirdest shooting ever.
Virtually no details have been released. I haven’t seen one confirmed source saying what the shooter used. His background is changing by the hour. There is still no motive.
The result is a Hurricane Harvey of bullshit, “first to print and retract later” journalism, and conspiracy theories.
Just like with Hurricane Harvey the response by celebrities and the radical Progressives was very different than that of the regular people.
A little pro tip for many people out there, when you find yourself on the same moral side as both ISIS and the Westboro Baptist Church, you can be 100% sure your opinion is pure fucking evil. You can take that to the bank and cash it for a one way ticket to hell.
It makes you wonder if one becomes a soulless shit stain after becoming a progressive politician/celebrity, or if soulless shit stains are the ones attracted to progressive politics/celebrity status.
But with the total lack of reliable information while drowning in the vomitous opinions and posturing of far too many people who seem only to opine from the sewer of their inner being, I’m going to take a moratorium on discussing the Las Vegas shooting until substantially more verifiable facts are known.
If you tell me I have the wrong interpretation of the Bill of Rights and how they should be adapted to modern times because machine guns did not exist at the time of the founding fathers and you are doing so via a Smart Phone or Tablet, please feel free to go take a trip to GoFuckYourSelfistan.
So far, three assholes have com up with that, but the day is young.
The whole of the Left leaning US media and politicians from Slate, to Vox, to MSNBC, to Bernie Sanders, to Saturday Night Live are claiming that Trump is killing people in Puerto Rico because he is a racist.
The Left is trying to sink Trump with Puerto Rico.
This I cannot abide.
Not because I like Trump, but because I am watching some of the worst parts of history repeat itself.
From 1932 to 1933, the Soviet goverment under Joseph Stalin deliberately starved to death at lest 3.3 million Ukrainians. It was a politically motivated famine, engineered to break the Ukrainian people. It is one of the many enormities of Communism in the 20th century and has come be known as the Holodomor.
The firing squads and death camps of Communism couldn’t hold a candle to the deaths by famine that Communism created. The number one killer of the Left was not bullets but empty bellies.
Puerto Rico is an unincorporated United States territory. It is approximately 1,014 miles from Puerto Rico to Miami. Unfortunately, Cuba lies close to in between at 762 miles, and apparently has had more of an influence on the Government of Puerto Rico than the US.
The mayor of San Juan (the capital city of the island), Carmen Yulin Cruz, has been all over the news criticizing Trump, saying that Trump is killing Puerto Rican citizens.
Geraldo Rivera, who is of Puerto Rican heritage on his father’s side (just for your social justice warriors who care about that), has been in Puerto Rico and has come to the same conclusion. Namely, the local goverment is too incompetent and corrupt to help in the disaster relief effort.
Hanlon’s razor a rule which states “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” Most of the time it is accurate.
It may seem conspiratorial, but it seems that we have is a Socialist/Communist sympathizing mayor who, in the great Socialist/Communist tradition, is deliberately starving her own people for political purposes.
The media is complicit in this Puerto Rican holodomor (if indeed people are dying of famine) because it is a great way to shit on Trump.
The far left, once again, is willing to fill graves by means of empty bellies to score a political victory. This time, they are doing it to American citizens.
