That is just too funny, she sits there pontificating and the reveals her level of ignorance.

Too bad that wasn't on the 6 O'Clock news.

I have no idea who Tucker is.

Sadly, thats not surprising to hear. She is simply a tool of the "gun grabbers". They tell her what to shout, and line her pockets for it. She doesn't have to understand it. After all, she's a politician, logic doesn't have to enter in to her job. :roll:

Houstonians should be ashamed of themselves for continuing to elect this woman.
She has no business being in our government at all. She asked NASA if they could use the Mars probe to find the flag our astronauts planted on Mars.

The problem with Houston is that most of the decent Houstonians who can get jobs elsewhere leave Houston.

ROFL! Carolyn McCarthy demonstrates her complete IGNORANCE regarding the firearms she wants to ban. In her bill she wants to ban barrel shrouds, yet she doesnt even know what a barrel shroud is!!!!!
(note how she ducks the question ;-) )

Funny, a democrat on this forum told me that most democrats are 2nd supporters. Every time a bill is introduced against gun owners, it is done by...wait for it.....surprise! Democrats.

I hope America hears you guys. I celebrated Teddy Kennedy by buying an AR-15. Lovely piece of hardware. Gun up, Americans!

"It's that thing that goes up..."

No, Carolyn, that "going up" is the sound of my blood pressure pounding inside my own head when I listen to your ignorant demagoguing of guns and their owners.

I kinda like their description...

But I get the idea that the reason they do not want barrel shrouds of a particular type, that allow grip extensions (to be added, or mounted) and other features that allow a more controlled grip and usage of a rifle...

Us AR and M4 users are always looking for ways to "trick" out our rides... :lol:
