Well done - Obama forces gun control

[2aguy]

Home - BBC News

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.

given that the rightwingnuts are in the pocket of the NRA, and THE PEOPLE want guns kept out of the hands of criminals and crazies, he did the right thing.

He didn't do anything to stop criminals or mass shooters from getting guns.........you can't comprehend the reality that background checks don't stop criminals or mass shooters...

If hinckley wants a gun...he goes to a gun store and follow s someone home....he waits, breaks into their home, murders them, breaks into their safe, and takes,whatever he wants............you guys on the anti gun side are pretty dumb.

One-Percenters Giving Millions to Bankroll Gun Control in Washington

Don't forget Bloomberg's promise of 50 million dollars to gun control. Liberals love rich people when they spew the leftwing dogma.

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

If impeding them means impeding the rest of us even further, then of course.

Prohibitions do not work. Or haven't you noticed?

How would filling out an extra form be impeding you?

Why is it well done when laws don't work already and or are not enforced?

Convicted felons can walk into a gun store and buy a gun?

Please explain how background checks stop criminals from getting guns.

Please explain how background checks stop mass shooters from getting guns.

Please explain how doing nothing is better.

Standard liberal tactic...chip away a little at a time.

Place blame where it belongs, the five percent of idiots which is why we have laws and regulations.

So where do the ghetto thugs get their guns?

Stolen from the 5% that can't secure their guns.

No, but they are not federally prosecuted for trying so why are more laws needed?

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."

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

Why don't you tell me how a so called assault weapon is any different than any other semiautomatic rifle of the same caliber

What do you mean doing nothing…..

We have laws that state if you use a gun to commit a crime you go to jail……what we need are prosecutors and judges who actually put felons in possession of guns in jail before they kill people. We can do that without licensing gun owners, registering guns and universal background checks.

We already have mandatory federal background checks…..

We have made it illegal to buy a gun for a felon if you yourself can pass a background check….if you are caught you go to jail.

We already have police resources to catch gun traffickers thru sting operations and using informants…..

We are already doing everything we need to do to reduce gun violence…….everything else simply targets normal gun owners who commit no crimes with guns…

The most important thing….arrest criminals caught with guns for felony possession and put them in jail before they shoot people…



And it would be nice if you explained how background checks keep criminals and mass shooters from getting guns…which you guys never do…..

Wrong…..most of the time they get friends and family to buy the gun because they can pass background checks…and they trust friends and family over strangers selling guns because they could be undercover cops.

And if your gun is in your home….it is secure…it is against the law to enter someones home and steal their property…..

You, like most anti gun extremists hate gun owners so you focus on them….instead of the violent criminals who actually use guns to break the law…that is why all of your gun laws, which target normal people have no effect on the crime rate….which you then use to justify more gun laws which again target people who don't break the law…..

Wash, rinse, repeat…..

they have friends and family and other straw buyers buy the gun because they can pass the federally mandated background check.
