Moonbat Dianne Feinstein said Sunday what we all knew to be true. That there is no law that would’ve stopped the terrorist who opened fire on concertgoers in Las Vegas earlier this month.
“Could there have been any law passed that would’ve stopped him?” CBS News “Face the Nation” Host John Dickerson asked the California Democrat.
“No, he passed background checks registering for handguns and other weapons on multiple occasions,” Sen. Feinstein replied.
Correct. No law would’ve stopped this crazed individual. We all agree on that. So, then, why the heck is she pushing to pass more gun laws in the wake of this tragedy? Specifically, the Automatic Gun Fire Prevention Act.
Does Feinstein really believe that banning bump stocks and other accessories will prevent bad guys from procuring whatever firearm and firearm accessories they want?
The Vegas shooter reportedly had millions of dollars at his disposal. And, as she alluded to, no criminal history. He could’ve purchased any firearm he wanted — including those restricted by the National Firearms Act. He didn’t even need to go to the dark web or the black market like most criminals.

Why then does she pretend that banning bump stocks will make a difference? It won’t. Anyone with any experience shooting them will tell you that it is more of a novelty than an effective weapon.
Feinstein’s targeting bump stocks now because she sees an opening to get something, anything passed. The fact that the ban will be useless when it comes to reducing gun-related violence and preventing mass killings is irrelevant.
It’s about priming the pumps for an all-out gun grab, as another California Democrat noted recently.
“They’re going to say, ‘You give them bump stock, it’s going to be a slippery slope.’ I certainly hope so,” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi told reporters.
The Automatic Gun Fire Prevention Act has garnered “Republican interest,” according to Feinstein.
“We have Republican interest. I have nobody lined up, we have 38 cosponsors, they’re all Democratic,” she explained. “We’ve had individuals that have indicated an interest and particularly for a hearing.”
I guess we all going to become criminals sooner or later when they start confiscating everybody’s weapon
Here she goes again!
Armed guards at her home and were ever she travels.
How about showing me she can keep drugs off the streets before taking on something else
If one wants drugs or guns or whatever, they can get them illegal if they have the money.
DF only agreed that no laws would have stopped the LV murderer because her long term ultimate goal is a total ban and confiscation of all firearms. Ask her if a total ban and confiscation of civilian firearms would have stopped the massacre and she would say: YES!
While she may somehow believe that, It can’t be said with any assurance. As always, it is so easy for soeone who is essentially protected 24 hours a day to make these decisions (wanting to take all guns). You cant reason with them, just as you can’t reaason with a climate Nazi.
