Outrageous!… Dem Rep. Degette Mocks Senior Citizen – Says “You’d Probably Be Dead Anyway†if Confronted by Armed Criminals
On Tuesday night The Denver Post editorial board hosts a public forum on gun legislation at the national level. U.S. Reps. Diana DeGette and Ed Perlmutter, State Sen. Kevin Lundberg, and Larimer County Sheriff Justin Smith are among the scheduled panelists. During the question and answer period a concerned Denver citizen asked Democratic Representative DeGette how he was supposed to defend himself under the new Colorado gun laws. DeGette smirked and mocked the senior citizen saying, “The good news for you, you live in Denver. The Denver PD would be there within minutes. (laughing) You’d probably be dead anyway.â€

Libs... pure class all the way.

Bet she gets re-elected.

She's only SLIGHTLY to the left of Pat Schroeder, the scrunt.
-
What's with these Colorado local/state politicians? Insulting, patronizing arrogance directed to their own constituents.
-
The sad thing is, she will continue to be elected. I don't understand it, I really don't.

It's called Denver and Saudi Aurora. They've had ONE Republican from that district in the last 65 years, and he served exactly one term.

This lady is a moron.
Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colorado): "I will tell you these are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available."

I'm trying to figure out what she is talking about.

She's saying that ones your hi-cap mags are out of ammo, they're no longer useful. Kinda like those .22 caliber cap strips for a carpenter's nail gun, I guess.

She doesn't know, why the hell should you?

It really easy. Liberals view this attitude as righteous. It goes hand in hand with the Prog attitude that they are so far above us they cannot possibly be wrong.............ever.

Silly bitch, guns are for true Americans.

It gets worse:
“The congresswoman has been working on a high-capacity assault magazine ban for years and has been deeply involved in the issue; she simply misspoke in referring to ‘magazines’ when she should have referred to ‘clips,’ which cannot be reused because they don’t have a feeding mechanism,†Johnson said.

Silly Prog, stripper clips can be refilled as well.

Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.) is the chief co-sponsor, with Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.), of the High Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act, which would ban the sale or transfer of magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds...she said banning what she calls "assault magazines" would "go a long way toward making our country safe."
"What's the efficacy of banning these magazine clips? I will tell you these are ammunition, they're bullets, so the people who have those now, they're going to shoot them. And so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high-capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won't be any more available."
These are the people who write our laws. :thatsright:
Do not worry though, apparently she just misspoke.
A spokeswoman issued a statement to the Denver Post, which had flagged the comment as inaccurate, explaining that the congresswoman who has worked on a high-capacity magazine ban for years "simply misspoke" -- "she should have referred to 'clips,' which cannot be reused because they don't have a feeding mechanism."

Even if you could fix their ignorance, it wouldn't do any good, they'd want to do stupid and wrong things with their corrected knowledge.

You just can't fix stupid.

Someone needs to send that bitch on a long trip in search of frequency grease or blackout turn signals.

She is a true dumbass

This is a prime example of proof that the libs are just trying to ban guns because it's what the libs do.
The reason I say this is because almost anyone with a legitimate concern about guns would do just a little bit of research before taking action and would not have a statement out there full of so much fail.

I'm trying to figure out what she is talking about.
So was she, as well as her puppeteers. :mental:
-
You know what, she told the truth. If you need a gun and wait for the police to bring one, "You'd probably be dead anyway".
-
Bet she gets re-elected.
The way I understand it, she is in an ironclad (D) district. The Republicans don't even bother running a candidate.

"What's the efficacy huh?!?of banning these magazine clips? I will tell you these are ammunition, they're bullets, so the people who have those now, they're going to shoot them. And so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high-capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won't be any more available."

I've been mulling over that paragraph of weapons-grade stupid for two days now and the headache just gets worse. Yeah, this is what passes for intellect, for some people.
I need a couple frickin' Tylenols.

"Weapons-grade stupid" LOVE IT!!! :rotf:
