ER> President Clinton's Gun control is not just the "Camels nose under the
tent," its an outrageous lie which panders on the victims and traumatized
by murderers. It would not prevent the tragedy in Colorado
ER> Speaking of Camels, I remember Joe Camel, banned forever from the
airways. Long ago, the nose under the Camels tent was isolating smokers
toward the back of the airplane. Then they were isolated in restaurants.
Smokers were banned from long flights, and then banned forever on
aircraft. Lawyers offered up bogus second hand smoking injury lawsuits as
the relentless attack continued. And now, in California, It may be
considered child abuse for you to smoke in the privacy of your own home!
Your children may turn you into the social workers for child abuse if you
don't let the darlinz have their way with you, and Joe Camel, well, he's
toast, and your freedoms are gone, and that is the lessen of the Camel's
nose under the Tent.
ER> The line has to be drawn somewhere, these laws cannot prevent any
suicidal mass murder.
Clinton Urges Gun Law Changes <ER> USURPS CONSTITUTION>
WASHINGTON (AP 4/28/99 fair use) ã President Clinton pressed for new
controls on guns Tuesday, and top Republicans proposed a hard look at the
nation's violence-tinged culture as the two parties offered different
responses to last week's Colorado high school shootings.
"People's lives are at stake here," Clinton declared at
the White House. He urged the GOP-controlled
Congress to raise from 18 to 21 the legal age for
handgun possession and to hold negligent parents
liable when their children use guns to commit crimes.
By day's end, Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott,
R-Miss., had agreed to give Democrats an
opportunity for a debate and vote on firearms
proposals in about two weeks.
"This conference should examine
important issues facing students and
society, including video games, drugs
in school, Hollywood, prayer in
schools, parental involvement and local
control of schools," Hastert, R-Ill.,
said in a written statement.
Back inside the Capitol, Lott spoke dismissively of the
call for new gun-control legislation as a "typical
knee-jerk reaction." The issues raised by last week's
shooting at the Columbine High School outside
Denver are "bigger than just a gun debate," he
said.
"It's going to be a hassle for them. It's worth it. It's
worth it. We're sorry ã it's worth it," the president
said. "People's lives are at stake here."
He added: "So it's not just the culture of violence
that has to change. It's the culture of hunting and
sport shooting that has to stop financing efforts to
frighten their members who are good, God-fearing,
law-abiding, taxpaying citizens out there, into
believing that every time we try to save a kid's life, it's
a camel's nose in the tent.
ER> LIAR - The point of you Gun Control FREAKS IS DISARMAMENT -
YOU ARE ALL LIARS - YOU ARE VIOLATING THE CONSTITUTION...
ER> Just like the assassination of Joe Camel....
