House Rejects Effort on Rifle Restriction

[natedog]

Let's say you actually hit the jet at one mile away (probability: 0.000000000000000000000000000000001). What kind of damage would it do? Would one 1/2" whole through an engine cause enough damage to bring it down? Fuel tank? Control lines? Would it even pierce the skin?

Ladies and Gentlemen!
We need to take Representative James Moran (D-Barking Moonbat) seriously! He has a great deal of familiarity with gun crimes. After all, he had to live through the terror of being confronted by an eight-year old boy, who pointed his finger at Moran! According to Moran, the child threatened to shoot him, with his finger and further threatened to steal his car.

Moran took the threat seriously. The boy's mother is suing Moran for "manhandling" her son.

So, there you have it, Moran, a tough man facing a tough subject. There is no difference between a .50 rifle and a child's finger.

Neither one can shoot down a jet...~
