Thank you Diane Feinstein

[still_one]

38. She is my Senator also, and I called bullshit on the statement blaming Feinstein on the lack of

gun control measures getting through Congress, I didn't call bullshit on you

You also avoided my main point regarding the republican majority in Congress.

In 2004 when the assault weapon ban had expired, republicans had the majority in the House, and they weren't going to renew the assault weapon ban.

In 2008 when President Obama had the WH and Congress, healthcare was the main issue, and they had a very small window to get something through, or there would be nothing, and the results of the midterm demonstrated that calculation was right.

Of course with the 2016 election, not only is the ACA in danger of being destroyed, but so is almost every progressive issue from Civil Rights, Woman's rights, Worker's rights, the environment, etc, and in this landscape there is no way that any gun legislation is going to occur. Even if we regain the majority in both houses in 2018, what the madman in the WH will do is anyone's guess.

You want to single out Feinstein, how about the other 99 Senators?

There is no doubt in my mind that if any Senator or Representative was able to get background checks brought up in a bill, and it made it to the floor for a vote, Senator Feinstein would be voting for it, but the reality is, that isn't going to happen
