Terrorists are buying Machine guns and Bazookas at any gun store.

At first I thought maybe he was not serious, and the above video was sorta a joke to CNN. Then the video below came out....hes serious!

REALLY Bill? Maybe its for Soapbox. Maybe its General Discussion. Its almost too bizarre to be considered early bird. Not really news, more like the onion. It is however outright lies, but at the same rate, with the lack of investigative reporting, or even looking at current firearm laws, its total comedy. Good on the Congressmen for knowing what he was talking about though. That was a fresh surprise. Thought I would share.

Sent him a respectful email asking to please research before making erroneous statements. Everything he asked for is already on the books.

I like Bill, but he is clueless on this issue.

Alas, I've never cared much for Bill, despite his last name. To me, this just proves why. I think he's always been pretty fast and loose with facts, if they don't support his pov.

Personally I've always thought he was an insufferable ass - right, wrong, or indifferent. This reinforces it.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

I was going to write him but I am sure enough already did. There were so many factual errors in there, including the 60,000 rounds error, people can have pistols but not semi-automatics, etc.

I would like the opportunity to take some of these people to the range and teach them.

I think O'Reilly jumped the shark when he became a semi-regular on The View.

Hey - I'm a "Simi" regular, too - at a number of local restaurants, their Alexander Valley Cabernet is one of the nicer, reasonably priced per glass wine offerings.
