[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is like throwing red meat to the Republican loons in Congress, who almost certainly will not allow this to become law. [/quote] It is not a question of whether the Republicans will let it become law, it is a question of whether the Democrats will let it become law. That’s a 50/50 proposition.[/quote] Any vulnerable Democrat on the national stage is going to flee from supporting this bill because it's going to become an easy talking point for their Republican opponents, who will simply say "this person supported lowering penalties for violent gun crimes and carjacking in DC during a time when both were through the roof." The ridiculous talking points used by Charles Allen and his ilk are not going to fly on a national level (they barely fly at the DC level).[/quote] If Republicans in the House are smart, they would make hay over this and challenge Democrats and Biden to join them in rejecting this law.
