Guns for Me, But Not for Thee

In light of the Webb staff's firearm oopsie at the Capitol yesterday, Confederate Yankee is hoping Sen. Webb will be all in favor of knocking down the D.C. gun ban.

Let me see if I understand this:

Congressmen and Senators can bring firearms into heavily-protectedfederal buildings guarded by permanent on-duty police officers, butresidents of Washington, DC are not allowed to have weapons to defendthemselves or their families in their homes.

It goes without saying-- but I'll say it, anyway, because it's fun-- that a Republican senator would be getting the tongue-lashing of his life from the national press and fellow members of Congress if this had happened on the other side of the aisle.
