Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: Hypocrite Kucinich Drafts Legislation To Ban Guns Entertains notion that bloodthirsty Neo-Fascists carried out 9/11, then says we should hand over our only protection against them Dennis Kucinich has shot himself in the foot, pardon the pun, by alienating a huge majority of his most vocal and active online supporters, the 9/11 Truth Movement, in drafting legislation that will completely ban the purchase, sale, transfer, or possession of handguns by civilians. Kucinich has effectively ended any minute chance he had of becoming President in 2008. The Congressman from Cleveland has received plaudits for being the only man on Capitol Hill, besides Ron Paul, to even consider pushing for a new inquiry into the events of 9/11. Though Kucinich warned that the investigation "would be limited," he has promised to organize a committee before the end of the year to focus on "Some specific areas that to me represent the most egregious examples of distortion of truth or lack of information." "By focusing in on that, I'll be able to bring forward a new dimension to the discussions. And from there, we'll move ahead," said Kucinich. According to Raw Story, the Congressman has also selected a date to introduce articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney. Wonderful, empowering, a breath of fresh air - but you know it just sounded too good to be true, because now comes this; "Kucinich is currently drafting legislation that would ban the purchase, sale, transfer, or possession of handguns by civilians." That's right - our intrepid warrior in the fight to restore the Constitution, wants to gut the very bedrock of it - the Second Amendment. Just as the Bush administration exploited the immediate aftermath of 9/11 to ram through the Patriot Act, Kucinich cites the Virginia Massacre as evidence of a "national emergency" that requires an instant assault on the bill of rights to "protect" us all from the madmen. Kucinich is seemingly willing to entertain the notion that 9/11 was carried out by a ruthless gang of bloodthirsty Neo-Fascists within our own government, yet he thinks we should all hand in our only means of defense against such thugs when the men in black ski-masks come knocking. Notice Kucinich specifies that only "civilians" will be forced to turn in their weapons - the guardians of the state will still be allowed to arm themselves to the teeth to keep us all safe. Gun control is a religion, and no matter how many facts you throw out about how guns prevent hundreds of thousands of crimes every year, or arguments about how criminals don't obey laws and gun control only disarms the victims, the majority will never change minds that are already made up.

#13. To: christine (#0)
I just looked at Congressional Quarterly's list of bills that Kucinich has sponsored in the last 12 months, and I could not find any such bill.
This is Old News. Kucinich announced on April 18 (no year given) that he was drafting this legislation. If its not in Thomas, it hasn't been completed and introduced.
The most recently Kucinich could have made this announcement is April 18th of this year. Even if it was this year, he's had plenty of time to complete and introduce the bill. And he hasn't.
