This is amazing I agree with Meghan McCain regarding guns

[nadinbrzezinski]

I just find this not stunning since this will lead to a large conversation on this subject...all I can say is cool!

[aikoaiko]

1. Ok, I'll bite. What is Meghan McCain's position on guns?

:shrug:

[nadinbrzezinski]

3. We need to have the conversation

And no we don't need extended clips...aka the mainstream view.

[pipoman]

5. What is there to converse about, no clip and no link = no conversation

from those of us who aren't inclined to make your thread for you via google.

[aikoaiko]

6. Sure, I like talkin. but I'd like to hear more than "no one needs _______ so lets ban it."

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. You asked

She is also in good standing (for now) with the NRA...after all just hinting this breaks the articles of faith.

[aikoaiko]

11. Yes, I did ask, but if she and you want to have a conversation as you say....

then we have to start talking beyond usual talking points. The "no one needs ______, so ban them" is not a compelling starting point.

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. Hate to point this out

But that will be the starting point for most people. Extended clips might be fun, but whatever...have a good day.

[beevul]

18. Then the conversation will not be had.

"But that will be the starting point for most people. Extended clips might be fun, but whatever...have a good day."


The conversation will simply not be had in any meaningful way, if thats the case.

The pro-gun like me and millions of others will simply bombard congress with emails letters and phone calls as we've been doing, and donate to the various pro-gun groups, and in doing so make sure that legislation based on "need" never sees the light of day.

No honest conversation is no conversation at all, and will be viewed as such.

[nadinbrzezinski]

19. And we will do the same

It will happen, sooner or later...

[aikoaiko]

20. Perhaps, but lets start with the McCarthy position. Why is ten a good maximum?

Most of the popular full size pistols designed with self-defense have standard capacity magazines between 12 - 19 with 15 - 17 being very common. These magazines do not protrude from the grip. They are not extended.

Civilian police typically carry pistols with magazine capacities between 12 - 19 even during routine traffic stops because of the possibility they will need to defend themselves or others. Civilian police defend themselves from criminals who are often also victimizing civilians. Why shouldn't non-leo civilians be able to defend themselves as civilian police? Its the same criminals who endanger both.

2. Yes, she is exactly right. So glad to hear her say such common sense things.

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. If we live long perhaps there is hope

[sharesunited]

7. Meghan McCain is not exactly a darling of the red state crowd.

So don't get too hopeful about finding common ground with them if she's who you're negotiating with.

[nadinbrzezinski]

8. On that point we do

That don't mean we will agree on anything else.

[Upton]

10. She ought to join the Brady Bunch..

they're all Repukes too..

[PBS Poll-435]

17. Marsha is a Green.

16. Her daddy injured more people with single shotgun round than I ever have with my STANDARD capacity

magazines.

Why all the talk about 30 rounds. Smoke and mirrors to hide the fact that McCarthy bill would ban 11 round magazines.

The gun grabbers should at least be honest and say "Nobody needs 11 rounds so lets ban them".
