#1 "We want every American to feel comfortable..."

And really...what's more important...being safe or feeling comfortable?

#3 This isn't a "come to Jesus" on her part. This is battlefield prep for "laws can't help, so total ban is needed."

#4 I agree Murcek. Prepping the battlespace.

"It's a two-page bill, I'll send a copy of it to anyone who calls our office, and you can look at it yourself," Feinstein said. "It does not take anyone's gun."
"We want every American to feel comfortable packing a concealed weapon around the country? I represent 40 million Californians, and I can say without hesitation Californians do not want concealed carry."

Willful ignorance. A vast majority of people outside the blue areas on the coast of CA are very much for it. They live in the third world hellhole Sacramento has created and don't feel safe or the government looks out for their interests and safety. (Hint: It really doesn't)

Globalists (liberals, progressives) will not stop until they have complete power over everyone's life. Which means they need your guns to do it.

#6 A new Donk strategy - try to say something half way reasonable ... then demand irrational gun bans.

#7 Unless you believe that this nut-case was under the impression that it is legal to shoot at crowds of people you must accept that he was not one who avoids breaking laws. Thus it is almost impossible to believe that some new gun law would deter him from any action at all.
Converting a rifle to automatic fire is a felony.
The only reason for passing new laws would be to make it harder for a feloniously minded person to arm himself for the mayhem he planned.
The device that it is said to convert his guns to automatic firing was outlawed until 2010, and I do not understand why it was made legal then. Perhaps the Obama administration can explain it.
Since only legal sales are affected by laws, outlawing things tends to drive their sale underground, which actually makes them harder to control.
It is only honest folk who would think of paying attention to new gun laws. They are precisely those who you do not need control.
All of this is so obvious it is probably silly to bother noticing it.
