A memo sent to Democratic offices states that Congressional Black Caucus members are coordinating a “day of action on the floor in regards to gun violence.” That’s Democrat code for Occupy Wall Street House of Representatives. According to the Washington Examiner the Congressional Black Caucus is telling its members to be as disruptive as possible when the House returns for business on Tuesday:

The plan involves members giving speeches throughout the day calling for further federal restrictions on the possession and use of guns. The memo also asks members to be present for a House Rules Committee that afternoon regarding on the terrorism and gun control legislation slated for action on the floor Wednesday.

“During Votes – Members are encouraged to have a picture (not poster board, but a printed piece of paper with an image of a constituent killed by a firearm),” the memo stated.

This what comes from Speaker Paul Ryan caving into the Democrats misconduct — bringing Occupy Wall Street tactics to the House by staging their whiny, sore loser sit-in. Ryan should have been more harsh with the Democrats Gross violation of the House Decorum rules. Instead he has agreed to hold a useless vote on a proposal already defeated in the Senate. Ryan is making a monster of a mistake by trying to  appease the crybaby Democrats. He is only encouraging more Democrat rule breaking.
