Well done - Obama forces gun control

[Indofred]

What Obama plans on doing will be barely noticeable. It's a bread crumb for fools like you who think he's acting on your agenda, but in fact, it will have little effect, if any.

In that case there's no need for you to get upset by it.

I've just watched Obama's excellent speech on gun control, telling how the American public is being left to die by the rich and powerful in the gun lobby who bribe their way into blocking any and all laws that will help keep the American people safe from fools with firearms.

The pro death posters will immediately say how this won't stop criminals with guns, but how many US mass murders were carried out by that group, and how many were committed by known to be unstable people with legally held weapons?

Well done Obama for taking a stand against the greedy who support gun sales for their greed.
Any and all politician who have voted against sensible gun control in the past should be ashamed of themselves.

Bingo. He can do virtually nothing that will affect the right.

you should be upset that he's trying to go around YOUR Representation of Congress. that is why we elect these people to go and be our VOICE to such things as he's tried to do. Instead you look foolish making a thread cheering him.

I'm safe from fools with firearms because I own firearms and know how to use them.

I smell a bribe.

Thanks, I'll send them donations tomorrow.
Those damn guns need to run around FREE!

Fred,

What makes you (and Obama) think the unstable people with legally held weapons will not obtain illegal weapons if Obama succeeds in increasing the already redundant gun restrictions? Gun restrictions are another form of prohibition and it seems obvious that we've learned nothing from the failed prohibitions affecting beverage alcohol and recreational drugs.

There already is a black market in guns. But because at present guns are relatively easy to obtain via legal means the black market is limited. Increase the restriction on guns and the black market will quickly expand.

There presently are many millions of unregistered guns in the hands of people who are not interested in selling them because their value is not at all outstanding. But make guns harder to get and the value of these unregistered guns will soar and they will quickly find their way onto the black market.

Also, psychiatric examinations are not part of the approval process for legally obtaining firearms. So what kind of restriction does Obama plan to impose that will prevent latent psychopaths from buying guns?

Obama's gun restriction plan is nothing more than pandering in response to the recent mass shootings. It will impede only the law-abiding.

But it makes the left FEEL good they did something. It has zero impact, but now they can FEEL good in that they did something useless, because it's all about FEELINGS with the left.

Millions of innocent people owns a firearm for one reason: for protection of their property, and lives of their families. they NEVER use that gun in crime of any sort. Instead of the people like Obama going after the gang bangers, robbers, home invaders. He want's to go after innocent gun owners to make it harder on them, while it won't affect a frikken criminal. they don't go get their guns the legal way to being with.

poor dear Fred. he has this warped image of the people who owns guns. that's his problem not ours

Why don't you make a cohesive argument on why you need an assault weapon.

Be happy to...right after you make a cohesive argument on why anyone needs a sports car, or hard liquor, or swimming pools...

 

[Zoom-boing]

Any gun designed with the main purpose to kill people.

If someone breaks into your house, wouldn't you want "any gun with the main purpose to kill people" in your hand so you could, oh I don't know ... defend yourself against the bad guy? Or would you prefer an uncooked piece of pasta because 'zomg! guns!'?

Exactly. my gawd I can't get over these people who claims gun violence is because they have a gun. take away a gun they'll find the next best thing. it's so much nonsense. but so many has fallen for it

 

[RetiredGySgt]

some people don't deserve to live in a Free country. when they cheer a president crapping on our constitution and steamrolling over OUR RIGHT to Representation of Congress. well these people shouldn't be allowed to vote for the rest of our lives.

Those who would give up essential Liberty to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
-- Ben Franklin

Why don't you make a cohesive argument on why you need an assault weapon.

I don't need to. The 2nd Amendment as the left likes to point out has to do with a militia ability. A militia needs the same weapons as the military. Every male aged 17 to 45 is a member of the militia in the USA. You want me to ask you to justify your 5th amendment right and why you should be able to use it? It is after all the same question.

 

[Stephanie]

Look what this Government did to the American Indians . and you now want to put your lives in their hands over Gun violence? when it's not the gun causing the violence. IT'S A PERSON violence who happens to be using a gun. lock up the person and throw away the key. sound reasonable or something?

Indofred does NOT live in the US, he is a Muslim in another Country that would like nothing better then to disarm the American people.

 

[OnePercenter]

Obama just ensured the Ds will lose big in November

Why would banning military grade assault weapons be a loss for Democrats?

Because they may be able to obtain illegal weapons we should let them obtain legally?
