Giffords Group Targets McConnell, Ayotte in Gun Vote Ads

“Giffords Group Targets McConnell, Ayotte in Gun Vote Ads”

Targets? Seriously?

gabby gifford is just another two-bit politician trying to take advantage of public sympathy. I have no use for her.

Are they targeting the Democrats also? A comprehensive run down on Harry Reid would be interesting.

The only alert here should be people who take advantage of their position or sympathy to manipulate others. It is shameful and without excuse. Instead of going out gracefully and with dignity for her service, gifford has just demonstrated that she is just another politician who shamefully exploits herself for political gain.

We need another amendment to the constitution similar to the 21st except it need to repeal the 2nd amendment.

No, Senator McConnell did not ignore the will of the people. To the contrary, Senator McConnell supported “We The People”!

Brilliant! The people overwealming want to keep their guns, so Giffords just raised a lot of votes for these people.

Feel free to target me as well ! I like many Americans wrote and called my senitors and joined the NRA to let them know I did not want these laws and bans. So, Its not just Senitors that are responsible for you efforts to fall flat, its the American People as well. May I suggest that you try to go on with your life and stop being bitter about your situation instead of attacking others rights.

Does she not realize that Kentucky is a rural state with a strong firearm heritage? Louisville and Lexington are liberal, but the rest of the state is conservative. Sorry about what happened to her, but my rights to own a firearm are no less important to me, than the first amendment is to a musician or film maker.

“founded by former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords…”

Emphasis on “former”…

I think that Gabby Giffords and her AR-K15 buying husband should keep their noses out of our business, we the people have spoken to our reps and told them what we want. McConnell and Ayotte keep up the good job of lisening to the people you work for.

Is this the same Mark Kelly who continues to use his barely functional wife to build his own political career?

It’s OK we are targeting the Demon crats as they are anti American.

I’m still trying to find out what good any of the gun legislation has done to keep criminals and mentally disturbed people from getting guns. I have found none.

Maybe it is time to make laws that limit terms for all government offices to 2 terms, get rid of pork barrel legislation (if it is not directly related to bill, through it out), make all congress and senators follow all health/retirement/pay as all other government employees.
Make congress/senate publish all votes how they vote on every bill on a home state website immediately after the vote. Maybe we can get rid of those NOT FOLLOWING the WISHES of their CONSTITUENTS.
Protect the all of the CONSTITUTION, not just the ones you like.

Let me get this straight. The criminal who shot her had a history of drug convictions. His school kicked him out because he was mentally ill. But he passed a background check and bought his gun legally? Interesting how we can’t even enforce the laws currently on the books….but lets make some more laws that will be equally worthless. Seems to me it would have been more sensible to ensure a known mental patient would get psychiatric help so they don’t GO CRAZY AND SHOOT A BUNCH OF PEOPLE! Maybe instead of buying a bunch of ads to brainwash gullible voters, that money would be better spent educating and funding all of the mental health resources that have been shut down in recent years. But then again, common sense isn’t common and doesn’t buy votes.

Why don’t the Giffords focus on taking away SUV’s and Border patrol after those fatal accidents right there in their own back yard ? 5 died how many serious seems like they should take something away-from the folks that had nothing to do with it.

Hypocrites! Really, I think that those that voted upheld the Constitution. More people are killed each year driving than those that are killed with weapons. Seriously, get real and get rid of these politicians that only come out when THEY think that sympathy will get them listened to. More background checks are NOT the answer, enforce what is already on the books and stop “dinking” around!!

thank you for votin these dum
laws down why do i have to hear from her or her old man no law would have stop her from getting shot

Let’s see………….Make Kelly tries to buy an AR-15 to prove how easy it is. If he is an anti-gun freak, why was he even in a gun shop to begn with?

Here are some RESPONSIBLE SOLUTIONS: 1.) Make Concealed Carry Licenses available in all 50 States and mandate reciprocity. 2.) Remove restrictions on licensed carry to eliminate soft targets.
3.) Improve legislation to make existing Background Checks effective by improved data input. 4.) Ensure that proper training on safe handling of firearms, proficiency in accurate firing and current on laws affecting legal carry, rules of engagement, use of deadly force, stand your ground and castle doctrines. I sympothize with Ms. Giffords for the horrible crime that was perpetrated against her and many others in Tucson that day but the fact remains had the Commuity College that expelled Jared Loughner pending a psychiatric evaluation actually ensured that a psychiatric evaluation was made and that evaluation led to placing him on the do not sell list as is intended the existing laws and background checks would have prevented him from legally buying a firearm … no new legislation required. Would that have prevented him from purchasing a firearm out of the trunk of a car; no, but neither would any of the proposed legislation.

Imprison people who support restricting gun ownership. They are guilty of treason.

Lol @ Mark . W why did you not list the 8 Rs who voted for that ? Kinda partisan how you conveniently “forgot ” about them eh ? Also , Baucus of Montana did not vote yes . Make sure you try harder to be more honest next time .

The Giffords Group is targeting senators for voting the way their constituents wanted them to vote. The Giffords Group is targeting senators for voting to uphold the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America. That’s not very patriotic.

If 90%?!?!?!?!? of Americans wanted more gun control… then why are there so many pro-gun comments in here? Hmmmmm???

Hahahahahah because the MAJORITY want guns. Yahoo and all other Liberal Media sites keep running these stories and saying “polling shows most people want gun control” THIS IS SO NOT TRUE! Just look at all the sites and the comments, it’s like 9 to 1 in favor of LEAVING OUR RIGHTS ALONE! Some sheeple and some delusional liberals think I’m wrong but those people simply can’t count or something cause ITS SO OBVIOUS THAT I’M RIGHT! LOL

The way I see this is until something happens to you or your loved ones we don’t get it and maybe Gabby would not be saying a word had it not happened to her as there have been plenty of crimes with guns – didn’t hear her stand up then – did you? Well we are not where she is – just like smoking cigarettes – I have smoked all my life – non-smokers who decided to ban smoking (probably someone who quit and hated everyone else now that smokes) make life hell for everyone else – why? Because it is none of their business if I want to smoke and they want to say drink (which I find terrible and deadly ) it is all up to the one it affects – how in the world did we ever get by before? We were just fine when prayer was in school – we had morals – do you get that? Leave us alone

Any unconstitutional act of an official will at least be a violation of the oath of that official to execute the duties of his office, and therefore grounds for his removal from office. No official immunity or privileges of rank or position survive the commission of unlawful acts. If it violates the rights of individuals, it is also likely to be a crime, and the militia duty obligates anyone aware of such a violation to investigate it, gather evidence for a prosecution, make an arrest, and if necessary, seek an indictment from a grand jury, and if one is obtained, prosecute the offender in a court of law.

Thank you Mark W.! I hope everyone noticed how many Liberal Democrats voted to give away our country! I wish every person here copied and pasted it and sent your post to every friend in their email and forwarded this ALL OVER. I bet that would wake up people in Congress! Just that simple act (US PAYING ATTENTION) would do amazing things! PLEASE PEOPLE just spend 5 minutes and forward Mark’s post show all the democrats voting for UN power over our 2nd Amendment Rights! Maybe if a Million or two people became aware, WE COULD MAKE THEM SLOW DOWN!

Why doesn’t Gifford campaign about the nut cases who are wandering the streets of the United States because the mental institutions have been shut down……….

And how are these ads paid for?

We democrats don’t really care that having guns have saved anyones’ life or from being sexually assaulted. We just don’t care. We have an irrational fear of guns. We live in places where they don’t have them except the bad guys, of course. So it doesn’t matter that we don’t make any sense. Like gun control and backgorund checks would clearly not have stopped Newtown. Any dolt like a dem myslef can realize this intellectually, but facts are not the issue. But it is about ourselves. It has nothing to do with caring about others. They make big sounds and scare us.

Looks like Mark Kelly learned well from Sarah Brady how to use your wounded spouse for pathetic partisan political purposes.

Elected officials in a democratic republic are supposed to represent their constituents and relay their opinions. I am proud to say that Sen. John Boozeman (R) Arkansas and Sen. Mark Pryor (D) Arkansas did exactly that. The citizens of Arkansas don’t want any more gun laws and both of our senators relayed that message to the Senate. My senators work for the people who put them in office. They don’t work for Soros, Bloomberg or Feinstein. Prior put it well when he said, “I don’t take gun advice from the mayor of New York City. I listen to Arkansans.” …… My senators work for the people. I don’t know about the others.

I am always amazed at the hypocrisy of the gun ban crowd.
ABC News March 22, 2013: “Rep. Gabby Giffords not only was shot by a Glock in Tucson, but she still carries one of her own.”
Illinois state senator Donne Trotter (D) Chicago has long supported gun bans but On December 5, 2012, Trotter was charged with “attempt to board an aircraft with a weapon”,

All these comments are quite irrational.

No one is trying to take away your 2nd amendment rights.

Background checks are to ensure crazies don’t get their hands on weapons that can kill a lot of people in a short amount of time. Yes, guns don’t kill people, people kill people. They’re just trying to make sure people with a past (criminals), don’t get their hands on something with a lot of potential to kill others.

Same reason why we have drivers take a test before allowing them to be on the road. Or suspend people’s licences when they have too many DUIs. That way, no irresponsible individual will get behind the wheel and mow people down. Simple matter of public safety.

This whole legislation is logical and simple. I don’t understand why anyone would think it’s about taking away our second amendment rights.

MadamDeb, please give one example….just one….of anything that the NRA or a NRA member, even, said or did that makes you believe that they want you and your family dead. Or that they in any way threaten your life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. Now, if your life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness involve breaking into my home in the middle of the night and robbing, raping, or otherwise hurting MY family, you are right. I WILL take your life. And your pursuit of happiness will end in a pile of gore at the foot of my bed. and by the way, I am NOT a member of the NRA. But just for your information, the NRA is a strong proponent of responsible gun ownership, gun safety classes, and education. So I am pretty sure that your claim can be “shot full of holes” so to speak

Full_Mental_Jacket4 | April 25, 2013, 5:21 am — I agree. the comments from a lot of the anti-gun crowd makes me glad that they don’t own guns. A lot of gun owners are just as bad. Equating gun rights supporters to conservatives and gun haters to liberals can be almost as bad. You can’t say “all” anything concerning humans.

So, you are saying they will BUY the legislation that they want…. and DEMOCRATS are more than happy to comply.
