Dick Cheney on Gun Control
Click here for 5 full quotes on Gun Control OR other political leaders on Gun Control.

    * Now might outlaw plastic guns & cop-killer bullets. (Jul 2000)
    * Trigger locks OK, and tougher enforcement. (Jul 2000)
    * Opposed 7-day waiting period for buying guns. (Jul 2000)
    * Voted against banning plastic bullets & cop-killer bullets. (Jul 2000)
    * Voted in Congress to weaken gun control laws. (Jan 1986)

I have a problem with this, outlaw plastic guns & cop killer bullets? What exactly is a "cop killer" bullet? Plastic guns? Nearly every modern pistol is made out of a plastic/polymer frame now.

It's like the frog in the saucepan. Put him in hot water and he jumps out. Put him in cold water, heat slowly and he'll sit and boil.

They're banning guns little by little, bit by bit.

First it was 'pocket pistols' (too small)
second it was 'Saturday Night Specials (too cheap)
Then 'assault weapons' (too scary looking)
Then magazines over 10 rounds (too much ammo)
then it was the .50 cal rifles and the .50AE pistol (too big)
Next will be scoped bolt-actions ('sniper weapons')

Bit by bit, they're banning the lot. They're either too big, too cheap, too loud , too accurate etc etc. All you'll be able to own in ten years is a black powder muzzle loader (provided it's registered and rendered inoperable!).
