Lou Posted April 19, 2019 at 04:18 PM Share Posted April 19, 2019 at 04:18 PM This might be a good time to ask Republican Senator Curran why he took campaign dollars from the anti-gun zealots and voted for anti-gun bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notshawn54 Posted April 19, 2019 at 06:07 PM Share Posted April 19, 2019 at 06:07 PM Because he is a liar. He stood on my doorstep telling me all about how he “strongly believes in the 2nd amendment”. He needs to go the way of David Olsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddan Posted April 19, 2019 at 06:37 PM Share Posted April 19, 2019 at 06:37 PM Be prepared: Curran is slippery and glib. He will say something along the lines of: "I support the 2nd Amendment, and none of these measures infringe." Don't let him get away with that jive. rights delayed = rights deniedGDL is designed to make it harder and more expensive to buy a gunAurora package and all the other gun control junk is designed to penalize the law abidingWhy is your default position to blame/burden law abiding gun owners for the criminal acts of criminals?Why would I support a voice that is aligned against me and the republican platform on issues of great importance to me?

steveTA84 Posted April 20, 2019 at 03:05 AM Share Posted April 20, 2019 at 03:05 AM http://thedailyline.net/chicago/10/29/2018/vulnerable-senate-republicans-get-boost-from-gun-violence-prevention-pac/ Three suburban Republican senators facing touch re-election bids are getting help from the Gun Violence Prevention Political Action Committee during a year dominated by debates over gun policy and headlines about gun violence in Illinois and beyond. Earlier this month, the Republican State Senate Campaign Committee contributed $38,000 to the Gun Violence Prevention Political Action Committee — the largest one-time contribution the organization known as GPAC has received in its nearly six-year history. According to campaign finance records, the Republican committee’s donation also makes it the fourth largest donor to the committee, coming in just behind three people directly involved with the founding and operations of GPAC. With that $38,000, the committee sent out mailers on behalf of State Sens. Chris Nybo (R-Elmhurst), John Curran (R-Downers Grove) and Tom Rooney (R-Rolling Meadows), touting the three Republicans’ votes on gun legislation. Those three senators are locked in contentious races in the suburbs, where Republicans are worried about winning the votes of women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherryriver Posted April 20, 2019 at 05:06 PM Share Posted April 20, 2019 at 05:06 PM I've collected a few dirty looks in my lifetime, but not many can match the one I got from Senator Curran's admin assistant when we visited during IGOLD this year.All I said was, very politely, "We'd like to ask Senator Curran to vote like a Republican."We are in Curran's district and pretty much had to vote for him this time around in the general election as the lesser of evils. He replaced Christine Radogno both in our district and as Minority Leader. Radogno was no major-league pro-gun-rights senator, but at least she forced herself to mostly vote like a GOP person.It's going to be a long five years til the primary.

BobPistol Posted April 22, 2019 at 02:44 AM Share Posted April 22, 2019 at 02:44 AM "I support the 2nd amendment" then return the contributions by the anti-gun crowd. Now. You won't do that, so you're a phony. "I can't hear what you're saying, your actions are screaming too loud." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
