Elizabeth Warren was just silenced on the Senate floor for quoting Coretta Scott King

Very frustrating.

I think you understand why though. Politics is very frustrating for most, and for a wide variety of reasons, given the nature of the beast. So most seem to mainly respond to the rhetoric that addresses the issues that they choose for their conscious awareness. Those that do dig deeper still are limited by their own education on specifics, such as Constitutional law. Which is where I fall, as I am not well versed on ALL of the intricacies involved. I do choose to believe in certain things based on what kind of world I want to live in, and for one that means limiting gun ownership to non-military type guns. And that gun ownership should be controlled by registration etc as I stated previously. Present day culture dictates that citizen safety is at risk without having guidelines for all to follow. If that's a Constitutional issue, then I'm all for an amendment. Disagreement is expected, but it won't change what I'd like to have in MY life. 

My sincere apologies to the OP for continuing the off-topic posting. I think Warren was justified in trying to bring to light good reason to consider why Sessions should not be AG. Enforcing certain rules of Congress in this case seemed to be a matter of convenience to me.
