Hey Rahm? If you got a list of people that you are willing to strip the civil rights of because you consider them dangerous to rest of America, why are you letting them walk around. You can commit terrorist acts with more than an airplane or a gun. If you are gonna strip them of one civil right, might as well strip them of the others. Like the right to attorneys and trial, the right not to incriminate themselves. You're a Democrat, your thing is denying folks due process, right? It's why youse are expanding Gitmo, like you promised you would in the campaign.
Is that the difference between Republicans and Democrats at long last? One party wants to deny US Constitutional rights to foreigners the other party wants to deny Constitutional rights to US citizens and legal residents?
This speech of Congressman Emmanuel was from almost 2 years ago. Maybe he has gotten a bit more nuanced since then. Maybe he saw the Heller ruling and realized the error of his ways. Maybe I'll just relax a bit and let Obama take his Chief to task. After all, Obama promised that he'd pursue no gun control measures, and even if he wanted to, there is plenty of other things ahead in priority. Priorities like: ensuring Democrats pay their taxes. Apparently, the wealthier people in the President's party think this obligation is optional for them. Obama will straighten THEM out!

Two things.
The guy was speaking to a Brady Bill bunch. What else was he gonna say? "Some guns are OK?"
Second, I imagine his basic problem is - he doesn't respect anyone that understands that some things are wrong - some things are worth defending with your life - that tyrants, fantatics, and thugs *do* put our lives at risk.
So the tyranny of his message just passes right over his head. And supporting his thug special interest friends and fanatic obsessions seems like mere warm fuzzy feelings.
