It has been a momentous year in politics, but the balance in the state legislature is much like the previous one. And after some recent sessions where partisan gridlock was resolved near the end of the session, there is already bipartisan agreement even on contentious issues like the Medicaid expansion and taxes to avoid education cuts. A roundtable of leaders in the Nevada Legislature looks at the past year and what we can expect in the coming year.
GUESTS
State Sen. Michael Roberson, Minority Leader, Nevada State Senate
State Sen. Tick Segerblom, Chair, Senate Judiciary Committee
Assemblyman Pat Hickey, Minority Leader, Nevada Assembly
Assemblyman William Horne, Majority Leader, Nevada Assembly

True. Best to go for safety today than be prepared for tomorrow's possible troubles. If you think that there will be no more wars or threats in the world that might threaten the US, you're very myopic indeed.

So Frank- I'm "myopic"? I just responded to several erroneous memes that were portrayed on the show and simply refuted or added succinct statistics to illustrate their flaws...and that is in no way myopic.
I guess you're one of these folks the press is discussing; the anti-Government/insurrectionists. How would you, John Q Citizen's possession of a assault-gun "prepare" you for "threats or wars in the world that may threaten the US"??
We have the largest, best-armed, Military (Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines etc..) on earth Frank!
Did YOU and your gun help out during 9/11? Other than that and Pearl Harbor, when have we been attacked Frank??
And would you and your gun be of help IF we were? I think not...that would be the US Military that handles those threats and invasions (fantasy invasions, I guess)
Are you IN the military Frank? Maybe that's what you mean here? If not, then what does "more wars" have to do w/ you or me owning an assault weapon?

If we emasculate everyone, then surely we'll be safe, no?

I agree that mental health care needs to be better funded and better managed but the gun issue and this issue are TWO SEPARATE ISSUES.
