Definitely is not new

Based on the posts so far...it is surprising

Whatever happened to the liberal mantra ....democrats dont want to take away your guns?
And here you have rightwinger confirming just that.

"I do not believe in taking away the right of the citizen for sporting, for hunting and so forth, or for home defense," he said. "But I do believe that an AK-47, a machine gun, is not a sporting weapon or needed for defense of a home."

Great observation by a great president

"Machine guns" are already banned. A semi-auto AK-47 is no different than any other semi-auto rifle. If he doesn't believe such weapons are needed for home protection, I'd like to see him order his Secret Service to "ban" the use of semi-auto rifles.

More "do as I say, not as I do" from a progressive sh*tbag liberal.

Hell he is willing to give some very questionable people in the mideast millions of dollars worth of truly automatic weapons and ammo to go with them.

A dead guy wants my guns? I'd tell him the same thing I'd tell the live idiot in office..Molon Lab.

In addition, the President said.....

While we recognize that assault weapon legislation will not stop all assault weapon crime, statistics prove that we can dry up the supply of these guns, making them less accessible to criminals."

Why does he care about stopping assault rifle crimes, they account for less than 1% of all gun violence.

maybe he doesn't like them because he knows and understands their place as regards the purpose of the 2nd amendment .

I asked that myself. Maybe you'll get an answer,because I sure didnt.

Nailed it!
It's why he doesnt try for a handgun and shotgun ban. They're both useless at range compared to a rifle and he wants that advantage against Americans.

Since when has Ron Reagan been a progressive shitbag liberal?

Well then he was wrong too. This is the second time you tried it. Unlike progressives we can disagree with people we mostly agree with.

Reagan, right?

But I don't agree he was great.

If you mean President Obama, you're wrongdoing RWs just ache to be able to say somebody is grabbing your guns but it's just not true. That's why you have to lie about it.

He took a bullet after all

Getting shot does not = knowing about guns, or gun rights. Look at Brady. by your logic he should no more about guns then Reagan because he got shot worse.

 

[pismoe]

thing with all these government bigshots that get shot is that they make things personal and are ruled by emotion rather than being governed by the plain meaning of the 2nd amendment .

More than the typical gun nut fantasizing about shootouts with bad guys.......Reagan understood the impact of irresponsible gun ownership

So did Brady

You can buy a fully automatic with the right license...

Only in certain States and ONLY with a FEDERAL license.

A FISH ROTS FROM THE HEAD FIRST

CUOMO wasn't wrong, just premature
