Rep. John Lewis et al Protest for Nothing. Well, it appears the House of Representatives Big Gun-Control Hippy Protest was all for naught. The ACLU sent them a letter yesterday advising they were against the Feinstein and Cornyn bills because they throw due process in the dumpster. We’re very surprised to see the ACLU defend gun rights. They called it right this time.

RE:Vote “NO” on Cornyn Amendment No. 4749 on Firearms Permits
Vote “NO” on Feinstein Amendment No. 4720 on Firearm Permits
Dear Senator
The American Civil Liberties Union strongly urges you to vote “NO” on both the Cornyn Amendment No. 4749 and the Feinstein Amendment No. 4720 on firearms permits, which will be considered on the Senate floor this week as amendments to H.R. 2578, the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies appropriations bill. Our concerns about both amendments are informed by our policy on the regulation of firearms, as well as our knowledge of the overbreadth and misuse of watchlists, and are twofold: the use of vague and overbroad criteria and the lack of adequate due process safeguards.

This is par for the course for the left. Always protesting for the wrong causes.
Well, due process IS the core issue in this.

John Lewis spends his whole day as a congressman sleeping.
ACLU = blind squirrel or broken clock though not as efficient as the blind squirrel or right as often as the broken clock.
It appears these children have given up...They can't sit on the floor too long, it would strain their precious backsides....

It wasn't like the kiddies had to sacrifice much, other than wearing the same designer suits an extra day.

i hope their clothes got filthy sitting on that floor
It's too bad the Dems don't demonstrate this kind of passion for destroying ISIS or stopping illegal immigration.
That is what the people want, that is why it will never happen, demotards care only about themselves, getting on TV and saying the stupidest shit they possibly can, Like Neanderthal Alan Grayson saying an AR15 can fire 700 rounds a minute...They don't care anymore, they know their time is about up and they are acting like spoiled kids who don't want to go to bed...F*ck em..I hope a section of the ceiling falls on them and they all assume room temperature.
Ol' "Cannonball" Lewis was himself on a no fly list, and he still fails to see how flawed that system is? Or does he just not give a shit about how flawed it is, as long as it screws some law abiding American outta owning a gun?
I'm goin' with the latter...
The aclu was not so much worried about gun rights as it is about due process. If there had not been any encroachment upon due process they would not have even spoken up. At least for once they waddled into the right decision even if its with the wrong meaning.
Oh, well, thank G-d for small favors then. Now i can go back to hating their dumb asses, thanks! (For a minute, i thought they got a clue, but apparently not.)
