SB 941 set for Senate vote on 4/14.

It's bend over and grab your ankles time until we throw enough of them out to overturn the damage.

Once it's done, it won't be undone.

I sent an email to my Rep.Carla Piluso asking for a nay vote but if party lines are how they are voting we are all doomed.

The vote is mostly along party lines with few exceptions like Betsy Johnson.

Wrong. The Democrats have majorities in both houses and the Governorship. We are screwed. Period.

No chance the unelected replacement Governor will veto this if it clears the house. That's where it has to be stopped, if it can be stopped.

Maybe the fill in governor needs to be reminded that she is only temporary and and will face a vote next year! Signing a bill into law stomping on the rights of the people could and should very well be her undoing. 2A supporters will be voting to get rid of her dumb azz while most of her support base will be sitting at home exercising their rights to smoke a joint and kill off a pound of chips.

More Guts Than a Government Mule

Good morning friends,
More than a few of you have been calling me to ask how I believe Senate Bill 941 will go. The invasive bill would require expanded background checks on firearms transfers.

I believe SB 941 will clear the Senate floor on the upcoming vote and then head for Rules Committee in the House. I believe that Representative Val Hoyle will give the bill a better hearing than it received in the Senate Judiciary Committee. But, after that hearing in House Rules, if all committee members are present, it will head to the House floor on a 5-4 party line vote. Once on the House floor, it gets interesting. But, I do believe that the Democrats will pass SB 941 with 31 votes with no help from a single Republican member.

I really hope I'm a lousy prophet and would absolutely LOVE to be wrong on this one.

Here's how I could be wrong…and here's how you can help.

In my opinion, there are five or six Democrats who could hold fast on the House floor. That would deny the Democrats the 31 that they need. Those Democrats are Reps McKeown, Boone, WITT, Barker, Hoyle and, perhaps, Komp. What would it take for any one of them to hold fast? As my old granddad used to say, "more guts than a government mule".


Please contact those members by clicking on their names above to send an email. Tell them that you appreciate the courage it will take for them to stand against the pressure that will be exerted upon them by their party.


Thank you and rest assured that I will firmly stand against attacks on our Second Amendment.

Sincerely,

Carl Wilson

House District 3

didnt the majority of Oregonians say they didnt want a law like this in November? how can they think its a bill people want when we already said no?

 

[Stomper]

News flash... Politicians don't give a flying FRAK what the people want.

Can someone please post a link to the transcript of the Senate discussion prior to the vote?
If anybody had a chance to watch it, there were some stunning moments of oratorical hyperbole in support - along with magnificently crafted arguments in opposition.
To witness the emotional outbursts of certain Senators in support was embarrassing.
They need to be kept away from dangerous machinery, such as the functioning of Government by the People, FOR the people.
Exaggerated statistical comparison theatrics was a favorite tactic, but when confronted with genuine facts, these rehearsed performances shriveled without coherent rebuttal.

There is power in words, and this debacle would not be upon us without persuasive language.
The opposition spoke the truth eloquently with conviction.
A link to the transcript would give us all valuable information about what really happened today, and what we can do NOW.
BTW: the discussion ran from 10:30 AM until 1PM; when the vote was taken.
It was all over by 1:04 PM

This one is awesome too, listing all the documents and testimony submitted prior to the 3rd reading and vote 4/14. Can see who the good guys and bad guys are here.
Still need the actual floor session link. Good hunting JR. Anyone else?
To have seen and heard Senator Ferrioli was priceless. Must share, can't find it (yet).

If you click on Ferrioli's name on the right, it'll jump the video to his part.

Or I broke out just his part here.

 

[papahepcat]

And here's Riley's, um... prevaricating part.

Oh, and those comments on his FB Tuesday tiny trivia showed for a little while, then got deleted.
