Schumer: Senate Dems Will Push Major Gun Control Bill Early in 2016

Newsmax – by Joe Schaeffer

One of the top-ranking Democrats in the Senate vows that his party will “bring a universal background check bill to the floor of the Senate early next year.”

Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York made the statement Friday at the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, where he was honored with the “Sarah Brady Visionary Award,” named after the wife of former President Ronald Reagan’s press secretary Jim Brady, who was shot and left brain-damaged by an attempted Reagan assassin in 1981.  

A press release issued by the pro-gun control organization quoted Schumer’s promise to pursue the legislation, and he referenced 1993’s Brady Act, which mandated federal background checks and imposed a five-day waiting period on gun purchases in the U.S.

“The Brady Bill proved – proved – that we could do something in this country to make our communities and neighborhoods safer without in any way abridging rights or threatening a legitimate part of the American heritage,” Schumer said.

“The Brady Bill was step one… but it was always incomplete. We need to close the loopholes that still remain in the background check system and finish the job that Jim and Sarah Brady started so many years ago. If we could do it then, we can do it now…. We are going to bring the universal background check bill to the floor of the Senate, early next year, and with your help we’re going to win!”

On Monday, White House press secretary Josh Earnest expressed his hope that Americans would discuss the need for gun control over Thanksgiving dinner.

“As people are sitting around the Thanksgiving table talking about these issues — as they should and I’m sure they all will across the country — I hope that is a question that will be raised and asked by members around the table,” he said in reference to a bill to ban people who are on the terror watch list from purchasing guns, The Blaze reports.

The National Rifle Association is wary of such a law due to what it says are numerous incidences of people being wrongly placed on the list.

The terrorism watch list has over one million names on it, The Blaze notes.

  1. “We are going to bring the universal background check bill to the floor of the Senate, early next year, and with your help we’re going to win!”

    What are they winning? A small handful of meddling Jews are winning a legal battle against the entire U.S. population that has stated numerous times that they’re opposed to any more gun controls.

    It doesn’t matter what the American people want. The meddling Jews will never stop breaking everyone’s chops until they get what they want, and they’re not going to stop until the violence starts. They won’t listen to anyone, or a hundred million people. They’re going to push and push until the people push back, so don’t expect to see an end to this regardless of who wins any election, or what anyone wants except the Jews,. They’re all that matters in their minds, and we’re all just animals that occasionally stand in their way.

    Another standard tactic of theirs is to say “early in 2016”, or “within a few years” when they’re planning on moving on this tomorrow. That allows a lot of people to let their guard down.

  2. We will have no such talk around the Thanksgiving table, but we will be discussing how much rope will be needed to hang all traitors!!!!

  3. “Finish the job Jim and Sarah Brady started”? No no no you zionist scum. Don’t try to put gun control on anyone but your own ilk who have been and are until now the front runners and the behind the scenes players for disarmament by gun control. “Could do something without in any way abridging rights or threatening a (LEGITIMATE) part of american heritage? So what the hell is gun CONTROL if not an infringement?

  4. And I will do everything in my power to see them lose

    will not comply , will not give up my right , will not obey anything but what I know and feel is right

    will become an outlaw if they decide to make me into one ,, than I will embrace it to every fiber of my soul and crush them where ever they rear their ugly heads

    the law of unintended consequences will be their own downfall

  5. “… former President Ronald Reagan’s press secretary Jim Brady, who was shot and left brain-damaged by an attempted Reagan assassin in 1981.”

    WHAT brain?

  6. “You” are reading articles on this site.”You” are on the list.
    Come, and take it
    That will not be a drill with hollywierd actors
