3 Democrats Walk Out Of U.S. House Of Representatives Session During Moment Of Silence For Orlando

[saveliberty]

So far in life, I have not felt a need to own a gun.

 

[jasonnfree]

GOOD FOR THEM.

When are we, as a nation, going to get so sick of these stupid "moments of silence" that we demand action?

This pos muslim didn't give you enough action with 100 dead and injured? You hildabots have a one track mind. Grab guns.

Democrats Shout Down Speaker Ryan and Protest Moment of Silence to Demand More Gun Control [VIDEO] | RedState

Can't say I'm surprised in the least. This was not the time to push their agenda. Acting like the anti Trump protesters they represent.

Good for them!

The Congressional "moment of silence" is an insult to the families of the victims
We won't actually do anything about the death of your child, but we will give you this nice moment of silence.....doesn't that make it all better?

Hey remember that time....after VA Tech and after Ft Hood and after Columbine.....when Democrats controlled the White House, Senate and House of Reps???

And remember when you all DIDN'T pass any gun laws?????

Sooooo......why didn't you do it when you had it????

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

There is some far right lunacy propaganda.. Go for it, Grampa.

Far right propaganda?

Watch the video dumbass

They refused to do it because this shit happens so often that moments of silence have become a sick farce.

0 respect for the victims of the LARGEST MASS SHOOTING IN AMERICAN HISTORY. But Muhammad Ali got his respect from democrats.

I don't really need to say it but.........unbelievably pathetic & self centered.

 

[ClosedCaption]

When would be better?

AFTER the moment of silence.

This is like asking when is it a good time to discuss gun control. There isnt. You just want it to be any other time than when someone brings it up.

You don't want to discuss gun control.

Yes, they have been trying to have that discussion for years. Whether you think its "real" or not has no bearing on anything

The problem is those on the left wanting to have a discussion define it as the other side sitting down, shutting up, and doing what the left wants done.

No, thats just the excuse you use to avoid discussing guns. You have a ton of them and all of them involve you blaming someone else for not being willing to listen....Such as you know what the other side wants and it includes you being a victim somehow soooooo....

If you don't think someone should have guns, have the guts to take them yourself. Bet you don't have the guts. You have the mouth that you run, though.

See? This is what every discussion boils down to. You being the victim of the left and something about balls and guts.

Far right propaganda?

Under Obama....yes....they happen a lot.

When the Dems had control of the House, Senate and Obama in WH....why didn't they do anything?

 

[ogibillm]

how you fucking liar?

He was on the FBI's terrorist watch list for years and magically was removed. You can't be an Iraqi vet suffering from depression and buy a gun, but if you're traveling to Saudi Arabia, watching videos from terrorists, claiming to be a member of al Qaeda, known to be a very troubled if not violent person who hates blacks and gays, you can be a security guard and carry a gun. This guy they allowed to buy a gun. Red flags were all over the place on this guy, but the Obama Administration refuses to recognize the threat. He's more worried about us shooting him than he is about Muslim terrorists shooting us.

yep. thank the nra, don't blame the fbi. ignorant fuck

The NRA does not advocate using guns for murder you ignorant asswipe...please show where in their literature this is the case?

the nra blocks all sensible gun control measures, including measures that would make it more difficult for criminals and terrorists to buy guns.

but you know and support that

Liar.

really? show us the gun control legislation the nra supports that would prevent people on terrorist watch lists from buying guns

 

[mudwhistle]

The bodies haven't been put to rest yet and these degenerates felt that they needed to make a political statement.

Who? The Republicans with the moment of silence or the Dems demanding action? Which political action makes you mad?

This isn't a contest. One of these days you leftists will learn that we are all in this together. What will it take? An attack on the Capital?

If it isnt a contest you're upset at both parties then for political actions? I bet thats a no

Obviously not. he's a fucking liar trying to claim that the FBI could have prevented the purchase of the guns.

he's either an ignorant fuck or a dishonest fuck.

He was able to buy a gun because he was taken off of the terrorist watch list. If he had tried to buy one while on the list, he never would have been allowed to do it. Usually, if you make one of these lists, you have to file to be removed. Homeland Security scrubbed the files of several dozen suspects.

 

[mudwhistle]

These people have no shame. The bodies haven't been put to rest yet and these degenerates felt that they needed to make a political statement. In their zeal to take our guns, Democrats are intentionally being disrespectful to the victims in Orlando:

Next time lock the Democrats out during the middle of the night.

A moment of silence is traditionally held to commemorate shooting victims, but after 49 people were slaughtered during a mass shooting at a gay nightclub on Sunday morning, some Democrats said that wasn’t enough.

“Where’s the bill?” Democratic reps shouted. “Show some respect!”

Ryan banged his gavel in vain, calling for order. Some representatives walked out of the room in protest, including Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT).

Himes announced that he’d skip out on the moment of silence earlier Monday, calling it an “abomination.”

The Connecticut representative’s district is close to Newtown, where 20 first-graders and six adults were fatally shot at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012. Himes called moments of silence “obnoxious expressions of smug incompetence” on elected officials' part.

Legislation to restrict the sale of assault weapons and to prevent people on the terror watch list from acquiring firearms has been introduced in the wake of previous mass shootings, but never advanced through Congress.

Despite his previous inclusion on an FBI terrorist watchlist, Omar Mateen, the US citizen who carried out the Orlando attack, was legally able to purchase a Glock handun and AR-15 assault rifle in Florida because he had no criminal record.




Via The Hill:

House Democrats staged protests in response to a moment of silence on the floor Monday evening for the victims of the attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando.

After Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) led the House in the moment of silence in honor of the 49 people who died in the massacre on Sunday, the chamber quickly erupted into shouting as Democrats expressed frustration over the lack of votes to restrict guns after repeated mass shootings.

“Where’s the bill?” Democrats chanted.

“Show some respect!” other Democrats shouted.

Some lawmakers walked out of the House chamber before the moment of silence began in protest, including Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.). Earlier in the day, Himes declared that he wouldn’t participate in any more moments of silence to protest the lack of legislative responses to mass shootings.

“The fact is that a moment of silence is an act of respect, and we supported that. But it is a not a license to do nothing,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) told reporters off the House floor afterward.

“Members have just had enough of having one minute, a moment of silence on the floor, and then take no action,” she said.

After the moment of silence ended, Assistant House Minority Leader Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.) tried to seek recognition, a request Ryan denied. Clyburn told reporters that he wanted to speak about the upcoming anniversary this Friday of the shooting at a historically black church in his district a year ago in Charleston.

Read your own fucking post you liar. It clearly states they walked out after the moment of silence.

If you miserable people are so right all the time why do you have to lie?

They walked out during it. The shouting began right when it ended.

Worse attack since 9/11 and it happens so often?

Liberalism is a mental illness.

 

[rightwinger]

Your child has just been killed in a senseless massacre

Will Congress:

Ban assault rifles? Nope
Ban high capacity magazines? Nope
Institute background checks? Nope
Close the gun show loophole? Nope
Ban those on the no-fly list from buying guns? Nope
Improve the sharing of records of law enforcement or psych institutes? Nope


But we will offer a nice moment of silence to make up for it

15 massacres since Obama took office and Congress refuses to even study the issue

More guns = less homicides.

More muslims = more terrorism.

Gun control = has not helped curtail terrorism in Europe. In fact far worse gunning down happened in gun free France.

Do you have problems understanding simple equations?

Obviously, since you have trouble understanding reality.

No, thats just the excuse you use to avoid discussing guns. You have a ton of them and all of them involve you blaming someone else for not being willing to listen....Such as you know what the other side wants and it includes you being a victim somehow soooooo....

If you don't think someone should have guns, have the guts to take them yourself. Bet you don't have the guts. You have the mouth that you run, though.

See? This is what every discussion boils down to. You being the victim of the left and something about balls and guts.

It boils down to cowardly pussies like you saying people shouldn't own guns yet being unwilling to do anything personally about it.
