Hotair.com: To be fair, former VP Dick Cheney finally points out that the real proximate cause of the Tucson massacre was the insanity of the gunman, but that won’t be the takeaway for gun-control advocates. Cheney joins some critics in at least considering a size limitation on magazines for semi-automatic pistols. Jared Lee Loughner used a larger magazine of 33 rounds in the pistol, which has given rise to a call to impose limits on clips magazines for personal use:
NOTE from Stewart: Cheney obviously has no clue of the concept of inalienable rights, what the Second Amendment is for (it isn’t about duck hunting), or what “shall not be infringed” means. I am not at all surprised. Chalk this up as yet another reason I’m not a “neocon” (I could construct a heck of a long list). And if any of you have, in the past, called yourselves a neocon, it’s not too late to repent of your sin and instead just call yourself a constitutionalist, or an American, as I do. I will have more to say shortly on this, and all related talk of “reasonable restrictions” on magazine capacity or a new “assault weapons ban.” Meanwhile, I think I’ll go buy more full capacity AR, FAL, and Glock mags, just to stick it in their eye. -
