A few days old but still worth reading/watching in that order to realize how stuipt this women actually is. How is it possible we have ppl in place/representing us that dont educate themselfs. I know Im not educated but this is as stuipt as stuipt gets. Someone please hand her some sort of scary looking weapon and maybe she will do the right thing and take herself out of the picture.

(Disclaimer: Before any panties get ruffled I dont really mean that last statement..She is Stuipid enought to do it and I dont really want to see that..)

The problem is that all she knows about magazines and clips is what she has seen from Hollywood.
It's a common stock scene in any action thriller for the Hero to dump his empty magazines and pop in a few fresh ones while taunting the bad guys with witty comebacks. The clip dropping is often done in slow motion.
If you knew nothing more about guns that what's portrayed on the screen you would think empty magazines are just thrown away or dropped just as you would think any individual wielding a Samurai Sword is going to defeat any number of gun carrying bad guys, both are pure BS. you would also think that any person shot with a .45 or less is going to get back up and beg for more, also BS. I don't care how frantically driven or well paid a thug is, you bust a .45 cap in his *** and he's staying down.

These lawmakers don't know anything about weapon handling ( Finestine has pointed an UN safetied Ar15 at her audiences several times, with her finger on the trigger.) all they know is what they have seen on TV, the movies and their kids video games.
The Entertainment industry is the biggest producer of Gun Violence in the world, showing us dozens if not hundreds of murders, shoot outs and bombings per week right in our living rooms.

Maybe what we need is some Hollywood control?
