1. I've got the list of names right here.

They are all Commies/terrorists. No you can't see the list, that is a state secret.

[Press Virginia]

2. Why isn't she demanding they be locked up until they prove their innocence?

surely it's the best way to keep us safe

[Feeling the Bern]

3. So, Commandant Feinstein is saying "innocent until proven guilty" is passe and hurting the country?

How do you prove your innocent to a system you've already been convicted in without trial?

Can someone please get her out of Congress? This statist has overstayed her welcome and her shelf life has expired.

Why not wipe your ass with the entire Bill of Rights and ignore it completely? Give it time, the US government and the state governments will do that. And because Americans are afraid of brown people, Americans will allow it to happen.

7. Everything above^^

11. ^this^ and +1000

21. You said it.

This DINO should've retired long ago.

[Socal31]

4. Wow..

Scary stuff.

[peace13]

5. Post Patriot Act reality.

It has been this way for years.

6. Ouch!

[choie]

8. Does that include senators?

[catchnrelease]

9. Don't listen to a word from the mouth of this warmonger

She disgusts me more than just about anyone in government. I expect horrible things from Republicans, but she is supposed to be a Democrat. I can't wait until she retires, it won't be a minute too soon.

[friendly_iconoclast]

10. On the contrary, everything she says should be noted carefully- and remembered well...

[catchnrelease]

17. You are right of course

My disgust for her blinds me to rational thinking.

[leveymg]

12. If you float, you may be found innocent.

Have a nice swim, America.

[uhnope]

13. so this thread is about defending gun nut access to assault weapons?

Is that right?

[captainarizona]

14. those who trade freedom for security deserve neither

Let sen. Fienstien prove she is not a warmonger. Due process is necessary. When you look into the abyss the abyss looks into you. democrats voted agains two gun control measues even though they demanded the other side do something on gun control anything.

[uhnope]

20. umm...what?

[surrealAmerican]

15. She sounds nervous ...

... kind of like she understands the implications of what she's saying.


To be hearing this from a Democrat is alarming.

[tom_kelly]

16. These are the New Democrats!

There is another one on the ballot this November too!

[malthaussen]

18. Have fun proving a negative.

If you aren't guilty of something already, they'll make up something so you are.

19. Sounds like divorce court

[freedom fighter jh]

22. She's right that we have to close loopholes

But let's not start by undermining our system of justice.

The terrorist watch list is not a fair basis for banning ownership of guns.
