Today, the Democrats in the Oregon Senate paid homage to “Pride” month by celebrating inclusion for all.
Senate President Rob Wagner boasted about Oregon’s welcoming attitude.
A mariachi band then serenaded the Senate Democrats with a rendition of “La Bamba”.
Senator Majority Leader Kate Lieber tearfully discussed how proud she was to be the only gay member of the Senate and how distraught she was at the horrible treatment of sexual minorities, but noted that Oregon was a “beacon” to them.
The irony of a very powerful political leader who is gay bemoaning the horrific treatment of gays was apparently lost on the Senate members.
After these speeches about diversity and inclusion for all, the Democrat’s true attitude towards minorities was once again on hideous display as Lieber demanded that the Republican Senators, who have taken a brave stand to protect their constituents, be forcibly dragged back to the floor to help the Democrats pass more attacks on gun owners and parents.
Furthermore, she demanded that each of then be fined hundreds of dollars a day for doing their jobs, acting with integrity, and standing in the way of the sick Marxist agenda she and her comrades are trying to shove down the throats of Oregonians.
In any sane world this would be considered comedy. Remember, these are the same people who have worked overtime to make sure the police are powerless in the face of rioting leftist mobs. But using those same police to kidnap legislators who oppose their unconstitutional mandates is just fine.
After Lieber’s disgraceful attack on the Senators who are demanding the law and the rules be obeyed, Senate President Wagner closed the floor session with another absurd, lie filled attack on the Senators who are standing up to his illegal and unconstitutional charade.
Wagner and his minions are growing increasingly hysterical in their responses to a lawful, constitutional and peaceful protest.
Maybe the Republicans should burn down a few buildings. Now that’s something the Democrats could support.
As we have told you, the Federal trial in our efforts to stop the dangerous and unconstitutional Mz 114 starts on Monday.
We can tell you with certainty that the State Police, in spite of what they may say, are not in any way prepared to implement the absurd rules this measure creates. Local police and sheriffs likewise do not have the means, the money, or the facilities to implement it.
The magazine ban it includes will ban almost all magazines not just those over ten rounds and it will outlaw most conventional shotguns.
At this point we have no reason to believe the court will recognize the clear unconstitutional dangers of this horribly drafted law and block it. The injunction that was implemented by a state judge in Harney County will be facing its own trial in September and if the injunction holds you can rest assured the state will appeal it to the Oregon Appeals Court. That does not bode well.
The state has already spent well over a million taxpayer dollars defending this attack on your rights and common sense. Unlike us, they have an unlimited budget of your money.
While we cannot predict the outcome of either case, we can state right now that it would be wise to prepare for the worst. These battles will be going on for some time. For many people it will be impossible to purchase a firearm if Measure 114 takes effect. Take whatever measures you believe would be wise as soon as possible.
