Gun Nonsense: Old Hippie Dems Stage Gun Control Sit-In on House Floor

by JODI GIDDINGS on JUNE 22, 2016

Well, the Old Hippies are at it again: Doing anything and everything to deflect from the utter failure (read: refusal) of the Obama Administration to keep us safe from Islamic terrorists. What’s the stunt-du-jour? None other than a staged sit-in on our House floor to protest the fact that Speaker Paul Ryan won’t bend to their will and hold a vote on gun control. Behold your Democrat representatives in all their childish glory, doing what they’re best at, sitting on their useless bums:

That’s right. The Democrats—keepers of the Flame of Power and Control—are stompy-footing the fact that Speaker Ryan won’t let them have their way and hold a vote to usurp our Second Amendment rights as well as our rights to due process. “Look over here at the shiny object, not the fact that we had yet another Islamic terrorist attack that killed dozens of our fellow Americans on Obama’s watch!” Maybe a timeout, a sippy-cup of warm milk, and a five-month-long nap is in order. Like after November.

Rep. Waters (D-CA) on the House floor during sit-in: "I am prepared to stay here until hell freezes over."
11:23 AM - 22 Jun 2016

Perfect! That’ll be right around the same time gun control legislation passes in the Republican-controlled House. By the way, I’m guessing there’ll be no mention of all the murders and other violent crimes committed by illegal aliens and Islamic terrorists on our soil in the past seven-and-a-half years. Nope. That would be admitting your boss’s derelict policies, with your blessing, are contributing to the deaths of American citizens.

You know, my former-toddler did this very same thing once, on the floor of a major grocery store chain. I ignored her and she never did it again. We should do the same with these jackwagons.

Pathetic people, so disgusted with those in office.

It's embarrassing.

Capitol Hill

During the extended takeover of the House floor by Democrats, a Texas congressman rushed to the well of the chamber to challenge taunts from Democrats that the Republicans are both cowards and responsible for the spree-shooting massacre in Orlando.

“Radical Islam killed those poor innocent victims! Radical Islam killed those poor innocent victims!” said Rep. Louie Gohmert (R.-Texas) pointing to a placard with the faces of the 49 victims killed June 12 by a Omar Mateen at Orlando’s Pulse, a gay nightclub. Some of the victims and more than 50 survivors were shot by police officers, but the details have not been released.

God bless @replouiegohmert !!! https://t.co/tx3N0UJhfp

At the time, Rep. Brad Sherman (D.-Calif.) was speaking and he called out one of the Republican congressmen still on the House floor after the chamber had been gaveled into recess: “Why is the gentleman afraid to hear me speak?”

Sherman made several taunts suggesting that the Republicans were cowards afraid of taking a vote in the minutes before Gohmert charged into the camera shot of Rep. Scott Peters (D.-Calif.), whose Periscope live-stream feed was being picked up by C-SPAN.

As Gohmert confronted the Democrats in the chamber’s well, other Democrats swarmed to the scene as did a group of Republicans in a scene that could only be described as a clearing of the dugouts. Rep. Steve King (R.-Iowa) was there and someone was calling out: “Billy, Billy, Separate them, Billy.” Most likely, “Billy” was Rep. Bill Flores (R.-Texas), the chairman of the Republican Study Committee, which for many years was the considered the conservative bloc in the House.

House Democrats swarmed the House floor Wednesday shortly before 11:30 a.m., and except for three minutes at 12 noon and for the 20 minutes, for a 15-minute and five-minute votes after 10 p.m., they did not give it back. Despite the Democrats’ rowdy behavior and over-the-top rhetoric, Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R.-Wis.) left the lights on, allowed Democrats to come and go, on and off the House floor and made no effort to keep food and drink off the House floor or to clear the House Press and Visitors Galleries.

Another Republican Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R.-Tenn.) posted on Facebook shortly after midnight that there was a crowd of protesters outside the Capitol shouting “Shame on you” and other derogatory chants. “These protestors, I’m sure many are paid.”

The old Grateful Dead days of sitting in fields eating acid definitely explains why the Demowacks behave and vote
the way they do........ BRAIN-DEAD!

It should be noted that they've never done this for Americans. They've never done this to stand up for our rights, they've never done this to stand up for our jobs, our wages, our incomes, our security, our safety, our borders, our trade.
