Quote:Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), chairman of the House Second Amendment Caucus, said any change to existing rules would be about “theatrics” rather than public safety and said it would be hypocritical for Pelosi or other House leaders with a security detail to erode the ability of rank-and-file members to protect themselves.
Helloooooo Anybody up there? Kinda sounds like what we've been telling them all along.
Quote:The Capitol has been the site of notable acts of legislator-on-legislator violence, including the 1856 assault of abolitionist Sen. Charles Sumner (Mass.) by proslavery Rep. Preston Brooks (S.C.). After Sumner seemed to insult a slave-owning relative in a speech, Brooks attacked and seriously injured Sumner with a walking cane on the Senate floor.
Oh my goodness.....maybe we'd better ban walking canes, too. Never know when one of those flamin' idjits might get a wild hair........
Who the h*** sent this clown to Washington, anyway?
Oh, never mind.
