DeGette Mocks Senior: You’d probably be dead anyway.

[Mtn.man]

Another POS. we are surrounded by shit.

[ChuckNorris]

God! She is such a dumb ass!

[losttrail]

What a dilhole.

When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.

[sneakerd]

What a total BITCH! Pulls the mike towards her, spits her baloney, pushes the mike away. I'd like to smack her. Absolutely proves that nothing we say will have any effect on any of those scumbags.

[Dingo]

Well to be fair, as a citizen of our fair state who obviously subscribes to the left's agenda, she has many options to defend herself. Should she be the unfortunate victim of a violent rape, she can:

A: Shit herself
B: Piss herself
C: Attempt to induce vomiting
D: Politely ask someone to fire two shotgun blasts into the air
E: Wait patiently while the fine Denver PD make their way to her in "a matter of minutes"

With such a capable arsenal of defense options at her disposal, I think she's due a certain amount of smug condescension in her attitude to our senior citizenry who would prefer to defend themselves in a dignified manner.

Just her looks is enough to deter any criminal.

[griebel303]

Wow. The politicians of this state have become so arrogant and ignorant it blows me away. Who talks to an old man like that? you would probably be dead anyway? Add her dumbness to the recall list

[alxone]

dpd wont be there in minuets ! last time i called the cops it took about 9 1/2 hours to come . guess the guys doing a drive by was not worth the time . or the other time i called the cops for a small gun battle up the block ill give it to them it only took 3 hours for them to show up . so yes she is right you probably would be dead anyway

[zulu01]

It's amazing the crap these idiots get away with saying.

[kidicarus13]

That smug smile at 00:44 seconds tell me everything I need to know about her.

[spqrzilla]

That's what a safe seat looks like. Now you know why Democrats think Joe Biden is such a great statesman.

[lowbeyond]

No way she will ever be recalled. She is CO-1 Denver

[Dave_L]

I can't decide if I'm more frustrated with the smugness of these people or the fact that non-gun owners are ok with this attitude? Pro-gun or not, its not OK to mock our seniors like this. These are our representatives. They should be held to a higher standard. It's insane that all these "equal rights" nuts aren't jumping on her for this.

[ChuckNorris]

I sent her an email telling her how impressed I am with the way she represents Colorado with her smartass demeanor.

[Mtn.man]

I sure miss tar and feathers, but I am afraid we would not be able to aquire enough to do the job just in CO.

[ChuckNorris]

[BushMasterBoy]

I think her attitude is typical of all politicians today. No real answers to the problems of the electorate, got themselves elected for the perks and priveleges afforded by high office. They think they are the royalty of American society. Her flippant remark proves where she stands as in regards the Constitution.

Her spokeswoman doubled down on the stupid (from http://blogs.denverpost.com/thespot/2013/04/03/as-lead-sponsor-in-house-on-gun-legislation-rep-diana-degette-appears-to-not-understand-how-they-work/93506/ ):

DeGette’s spokeswoman Juliet Johnson issued a statement Wednesday, saying the congresswoman mispoke.
“The Congresswoman has been working on a high-capacity assault magazine ban for years, and has been deeply involved in the issue; she simply misspoke in referring to ‘magazines’ when she should have referred to ‘clips,’ which cannot be reused because they don’t have a feeding mechanism,” Johnson said. “Quite frankly, this is just another example of opponents of common-sense gun violence prevention trying to manipulate the facts to distract from the critical issue of keeping our children safe and keeping killing machines out of the hands of disturbed individuals. It’s more political gamesmanship that stands in the way of responsible solutions.”

[ChuckNorris]

How does this POS have a job?
Making legislation that we have to live by, when she obviously has NO CLUE!

[Ah Pook]

I have to applaud the reporter, at the DP (the first time ever), for bringing attention to the stupidity of our elected official.


The Congresswoman has been working on a high-capacity assault magazine ban for years, and has been deeply involved in the issue
You would at least think she knew what the hell she was talking about by now. [Roll1]

Are any of these elected officials even reading this tripe or just passing it along with their name on it?

[lowbeyond]

oh ok clips cant be reused , hmm how interesting.

what a cunt

[davsel]

Apparently she started this in 1998 - and still has no clue what she is banning.

From: http://degette.house.gov/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=1220:degette-and-mccarthy-call-for-congress-to-ban-high-capacity-magazines&catid=76:press-releases-&Itemid=227


Beginning when she first arrived in Congress 16 years ago, Rep. DeGette has led the charge on introducing bills on multiple occasions that would ban these high-capacity clips, beginning with the bill’s first introduction in 1998. In this Congress, DeGette and McCarthy have once again introduced a similar bill, H.R.308, the Large Capacity Ammunition Feeding Device Act, to ban high-capacity magazines.


I am speechless.

[davsel]

Oh. My. God. I thought I was jaded to the level of unabashed retardedness these worthless dogs could display, but that takes the fucking cake.

Just, WOW

Now I get it. She grabbed a quick definition from Wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)
Not to be confused with Magazine (firearms) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magazine_(firearms)).



A clip is a device that is used to store multiple rounds of ammunition together as a unit, ready for insertion into the magazine or cylinder of a firearm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firearm). This speeds up the process of loading and reloading the firearm as several rounds can be loaded at once, rather than one round being loaded at a time. Several different types of clips exist, most of which are made of inexpensive metal stampings that are designed to be disposable, though they are often re-used.
The term "clip" is also frequently used to refer to a detachable magazine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magazine_(firearms)), though such usage is controversial.[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)#cite_note-1)[2] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)#cite_note-thegunzone-2)[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)#cite_note-Handgunnersglossary-3) The defining difference between clips and magazines is the presence of a feed mechanism in a magazine, typically a spring-loaded follower, which a clip lacks.[2] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)#cite_note-thegunzone-2)[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)#cite_note-4)[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)#cite_note-5)

[davsel]

I have little problem with her law if it is rewritten to more accurately convey her spoken intent: "Ban all disposable stripper clips that hold more than 15 rounds." All mine hold 10 and are reusable.

I'd still fight it.

[Byte Stryke]

"You are one of the most foolish and conceited human beings I have heard speak. You should resign." <- I think this idea is perfect, and she should heed this advice. "Are you naturally a fucking idiot or do you have to try to be this fucking stupid?""YOU ARE A RUDE AND IGNORANT MORON.""I watched the video on you explaining why it would help to ban hi-capacity magazines and it scares me that people like you are trying to get this passed and you haven't got a clue as to how they function !""Seriously? You actually SAID that magazines would decrease when the bullets were used??? Honest??? You're that STUPID??? You don't even KNOW that you can RELOAD those magazines? You just cannot fix stupid I guess & you cannot be fixed.""You mam are an idiot. You obviously havent got a clue."Love the backlash she is getting! Stupid is as stupid does, and she does a lot of stupid!

The Post has done a surprisingly good job of holding her feet to the fire on this:
http://www.denverpost.com/opinion/ci_22942476/degette-draws-criticism-pretty-stupid-ammo-magazine-comment?source=pkg

They tweeted out their original article, as well as the subsequent edit which included DeGette's "clarification". When you consider the % of articles they tweet out on vs. how many they write, they are really giving this story some serious attention.

They also wrote an editorial, which of course defends the law, but at least doesn't cut DeGette any slack.

[wreave]

Just thought of a great analogy:

There are 35-40k deaths annually by traffic crashes in the US (over twice as many as total homicides, btw). The lawmakers, in an effort to curb deaths from speeding, outlaw aftermarket aluminum mag wheels. DeGette thinks this is a good idea because when the tires wear out, the wheels have to be thrown away.

[ROFL1] Now that's funny! If she actually did say something like that, I probably wouldn't be surprised- yes, I do believe she is that dumb, no matter what the subject matter is. Watch out! If you drink that entire bottle of water you have to go buy a new one and throw the used one away.

[Rucker61]

Her Wikipedia page has been updated, and not by a friend:

Gun Control DeGette claims to support the Second Amendment (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Second_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution ), but also wants bans on semi-automatic firearms like those used in the 2012 Aurora shooting (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/2012_Aurora_shooting) which happened in a gun-free zone movie theatre near her district. DeGette believes that “the sole purpose of these guns and these magazines is to kill people.” [11] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-11) DeGette and Carolyn McCarthy introduced the Stop Online Ammunition Sales Act of 2012. [12] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-12) Both the National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Gun_Owners_of_America) have given DeGette 0% ratings.[13] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-13)
During a public hearing in Denver (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Denver,_Colorado), April 2, 2013, DeGette's comments revealed she does not understand that magazines (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Magazine_(firearms)) or clips (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Clip_(ammunition)) are designed and intended to be reloaded as often as needed with more cartridges (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Cartridge_(firearms)), also referring to cartridges as "bullets (http://www.ar-15.co/wiki/Bullet)".[14] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-04042013DailyCaller-14)[15] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-DenPost04032013Sherry-15) Firearm magazines are spring-loaded metal or plastic boxes designed to be reused hundreds of times. Her office's clarification compounded the error by saying she meant "clips," which is incorrect as clips are metal strips that are similarly designed to be reloaded as often as necessary. Her opposition has stated they find it scary that a person who would be lead sponsor of a bill would have such a profound misunderstanding of the proposed bill.[15] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-DenPost04032013Sherry-15)[14] (http://www.ar-15.co/#cite_note-04042013DailyCaller-14)

[jerrymrc]

While those who currently have high-capacity magazines would be able to keep them and reuse them if they wished, they would not be able to purchase new high-capacity magazines or transfer them to others. The availability of these assault magazines to criminals and the mentally ill would thus be greatly reduced over time.

She has no clue how many are out there. Sale of "new" mags was stopped for 10 years, it did nothing. Totally clueless.[Bang] IMO it would take 100+ years to see a dent. I have mags that were made in the 50's still going strong.

[Geology Rocks]

Aurora's state Rep. Rhonda Fields was personally and viciously maligned as she pursued meaningful gun violence prevention legislation in the statehouse — including a high-capacity magazine ban. Despite her long reputation as a tireless advocate for gun safety, and as the parent of a child gunned down by an assault weapon

good spin....."child gunned down by assault weapon " = gang banger shot and killed by rival gang.

thats the same right?

[Ronin13]

good spin.....[MOD: posted edited per member's request]

[Squeeze]

I like the comment, "These things will greatly reduce over time." Sure, in the hands of law-abiding citizens they will. However, criminals don't give a crap about laws (as if she has a clue about that anyway). Also, I know there are going to be A LOT of current law-abiding citizens who are going to say, "Screw her and her laws. I'll get my magazines elsewhere and that is that." I don't blame them either. Certain magazines are very hard to come by right now with the current nonsense going on.

[Great-Kazoo]

good spin.....[MOD: posted edited per member's request]

Get it right Fields son WAS NOT A GANG BANGER He witnessed a killing and was Man enough to not only identify the shooter, but willing to testify. Which is more than i could say for some members of this board.

As much as Bounced check Fields is a POS her son was doing the right thing, and paid with his life.

[sneakerd]

Word.

[rondog]

And what the fuck is an assault magazine?

I reckon if you used some "assault duct tape" and taped several magazines together, then you'd have an "assault magazine". But I'm sure she doesn't realize that magazines can be taped together, so mum's the word....or she'll try to ban/regulate duct tape too.

The new version of this page now has a correction at the very top:


Editor's note: An earlier version of this piece said Rep. Rhonda Fields' son was killed by an assault weapon, based on information from Fields. But Fields on Friday told The Post's Kurtis Lee that she "misspoke" She said her son was not killed by an assault rifle and that she was still trying to determine what kind of gun was used.

And the Post wrote a story, based on my tip, about Fields' lie about her son being killed by an "assault weapon".

now,there is no evidence to support a belief that her son was a gang-banger, but that is not the same as saying unequivicolly that he wasn't one. Fact is,we just don't know but in all likelihood, he was probably a good kid, unlike his mother.

Curtis Hubbard also wrote an editorial, talking about how DeGette's wound was self inflicted and that the State will prove to be "sensible" when it comes to gun control and magazine limits in the next election.

Even more surprising is this tidbit from his "Opinion" piece. Keeping in mind the Denver Dump supposedly has said they are non-committal on "issues" They just REPORT the news

Even for gun-control supporters like the Denver Post editorial board, there was no getting past the fact that she didn't seem to grasp the issue.

2. Always load your gun by pouring black powder into the barrel, sliding the bullet in, and then using a stick to push it in.

@ 0:44 seconds "Briefly to Your last question was the advocacy of pa of banning these magazineclips. I will tell you these these this is These are umm ammunition, they're bullets, so the people who have those now, they're going to shoot them and so if you banned, if you banned them in the future, the number of these high capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there wont be any more available."


Is she saying there is not going to be any more ammunition available? [Eek3]

Don't think too hard on it. She was seeing this in her head:

So y'all realize that these folks have showed their hand (for those thick enough not to figure it out before now) that they see ZERO problem in banning ammunition because in their minds, that's not protected by the 2nd Amendment, only "arms" are.
