Was she refering to the charity set up 3 days prior to the shooting in Newton. I always figured politicians and lawyers were bottom feeding scumfish, now I see useless needs to be added. You know this woman looking the way she does is probably jealous because the men in her life preferred to spend time cleaning and oiling and shooting more than being seen in public with her. I sure would

The article didn’t say she was a Democrat but I figure she is, correct?. I would really like to know how the Democratic Party kept the planning for this all out assault on the 2nd Amendment a secret. Yeah we all knew Barack was a major anti-gunner, but he really did keep his folks in line until he unleashed them after Newtown. This level of coordinated attack in so many states and Federally takes some serious planning. How did it not leak out before before their orchestrated roll-out?

I’m trying hard not to laugh. Just look at her, sitting up there, looking down on her subjects. Chastising, pontificating, doing her very best to make manufacturers bend to her will. Where do these people come from? We, as voters, must start doing better research and start weeding out these 60′s, pot smoking, free love, what ever make you feel good hippies from government. They are not interested in representing, they want to rule. From the top down, they want to rule.

Remember in November, every stinking, lying, scumbag politician who pushed for, or voted for any gun control measure. Run every one of the useless bastards out of office and into the unemployment line!

Hartley is actually a middle of the road Democrat usually. I am not sure why she decided to go off the deep end over Mossberg.
Perhaps she thought she needed to re-establish some cred with Connecticut’s liberals. A little research would have helped her however. Known for reliable pump shotguns, .22 rifles, and a decent deer rifle, I am not aware of any gun on Diane Finklestein’s list of hundreds of “bad guns” made by Mossberg. Maybe it’s a good time for Mossberg to consider a move to Tennessee. No state income taxes, a strong freedom culture, better weather, and you can ship an item later in Memphis (10:00 PM late enough?) and get it there the next morning.

It’s particularly egregious that she accused Mossberg of manufacturing products “only meant to kill” after Joe Biden gave his sage advice, “Buy a shotgun. Buy a shotgun.” If Mr. Bartozzi had reminded her of this, that may have shut her up right quick when she realized she was condemning the VP (for advising people to go out and buy deadly weapons) with her attack on Mossberg.
It’s time we stopped pussy-footing around this subject and just admit, “Yes, most firearms are either designed to kill, or can be used to kill. There are people in the world who need killing, and others who should be protected from them. Anyone who doesn’t understand this lives in a fantasy world.” If she denied, or failed to acknowledge, the truth of the statement, Sen. Hartley could have been challenged to file legislation disarming Connecticut’s police forces as a gesture of her sincerity on the issue.

Bluedog – That’s a great reason to kick them all out of office and put them all in jail – just think how much money the country would save, in salaries, pensions, benefits, pork barrels, entitlement programs that wouldn’t get voted into existence, other entitlement programs that the few honest politicians left could repeal. All that money could be used to pay off the national debt!

Hartley is just another Feinstein clone and a washed out aging hippie communist trash bag! She took an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution and she has failed miserably in that regard. In my book, she is guilty of treason and should face the consequences!
