sets a nice precedent for how the minority party can hijack the House. Would be spun entirely differently were it Republican minority doing that, say, for a healthcare reform vote.I still don't understand what it is they are demanding. The bill they want voted on was DEFEATED already in the Senate. A bill has to have the support of both the House and Senate before it can move on to the President. Which means, unless they think they can turn the Senate around on a 2nd vote (which won't happen), any vote on the already failed bill, is a waste of time and PROVES this is nothing more than political showmanship. They want it on record that Republicans voted against their bill - nothing more. Never mind the fact that Democrats are on the record rejecting the bills proposed by the Republican side - so, in the war over who wants to "do something" BOTH parties are equally complicit in failing to make something happen.
This is a stunt, nothing more. It is a waste of time, but damn, the MSM is LOVING this - report after report stating that only Democrats care about "gun violence". Sick and twisted, lies and whiny little babies. Man, I hate politicians.

"These mass shootings are happening like clockwork."

And now, isn't Congress adjourned until July 5th? These guys are going to occupy an empty chamber? Obvious that no one has an actual long term strategy, they just are having their tantrum. Just lock the doors and make into a disciplinary 'time out:' "Go to your room until you're ready to act like a grown-up." Geez, I haven't heard those words since I was maybe 7 years old!

So, a bunch of politicians occupying a government building and accomplishing nothing meaningful. Business as usual.
