Not being racist here- just making an assumption based on her last name that she is Jewish. Does she not remember what has happened to her people over history? The most abused ethnic group in the history of mankind, suffering at the hands of well armed oppressors. I'd think she'd be more like the Jews in Israel; armed to the teeth, and realistic about the next Holocaust!
I have great admiration for God's chosen people- sadly,some have apparently forgotten history.
it does seem illogical that those whose forebearers have suffered due to the absence of an effective means of self-defense are often the most ardent supporters of most extremely stringent measures to make even more people unable to defend themselves.
Perhaps not. Not to justify her actions as they are misguided, but it could be a case of her remembering the history of what guns did TO her people. Either way though, I doubt this will get much more traction than her previous attempts.
So a case of forgetting the all-important aspect of who used the firearm against whom?
Well, in her defense, she got part of the equation right. I am SO surprised that SHE actually is proposing this... she carried a gun for years under one of California's somewhat rare concealed-carry permits. I think, too, that she may have been involved in the effort to allow Federal Legislators an exemption to DC's gun laws by giving them some sort of deputization by the US Marshal's Service some years ago. You know, a special type of "Only Ones" mentality.
