That didn't take long:Pres Obama willrestrict guns

The so-called "Assault Weapons Ban" resulted in no reduction in gun crimes, probably since very few crimes were ever committed with so-called "Assault Weapons" in the first place. And when it expired, the "gunfights in the streets" predicted by many anti-gun-rights hysterics, failed to materialize.
Nonetheless, with Barack Obama in the White House for less than seven hours, this has appeared on the White House website.

quote:Address Gun Violence in Cities: Obama and Biden would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.
I guess it was inevitable. We voted for him, now we've got him.
I said earlier that I wished President Obama success. Restricting guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens (which is all any gun legislation an ever do) produces the opposite effect: A lessening of safety and security in cities, neighborhoods, schools etc., as criminals find their victims are less and less able to fight back.

This was on "his" website all along, he just moved it over to the whitehouse website, now that he is POTUS.

Where do you get this WE???
I DID NOT vote for him!

Yep, without changing or modifying it a bit, though he could have.
So much for the "rule of law" he claimed was important in his inaugural speech.
As I said, that sure didn't take long.
The slope is slippery indeed, and the constitution will continue to be over-looked by the elites in power (of all political stripes, not just dem's - the reps are no better at protecting that document).
"We" didn't vote for him. 52% of the population did. That's far from a mandate.
I pitty the fools who haven't been stocking up since '04 when the last one expired

don't know where you got the we voted for him bull. i dang sure didn't
Wow, how many times is that paragraph going to be posted?
FrancF was kind enough to move ANOTHER post about
THE SAME TOPIC in here from General Discussion.
I am glad I bought a few in anticipation.....alot of this doesn't even effect certain parts of the Country...all you poor b*st*rds in NY and NJ, MA and Ca that can't buy anything without submitting forms 6 months in advance and blah, blah, blah....I'm glad I live in VA. Of course that is subject to change as more libs move to the Southeast and infect our local politics with their naive, socialist ideals.

No, only approximately 52% of eligible voters did (oh, and the ineligible/fraudulent ones too). That figure is far, far less than 52% of the population.
There should be zero surprise about his anti-Constitution beliefs and plans. After all, the evidence has been there to see all along.
And so the planned destruction of the Republic continues, all the while, abject ignorance and outright stupidity thrive in this, the "new america"............

Yes it does. And until the SHTF people will not care or even notice. It's human nature. There are a few of us who are on top of this, but damn few!!![V]
It's only a matter of time before we see another repressive AWB.
I heard he planned to get it reinstated within 90 days of getting sworn in as president.

PLEASE DISTRIBUTE TO ALL AMERICANS - THIS IS NOT A DRILL!
Ammunition Accountability Legislation
Remember how Obama said that he wasn't going to take your guns?
Well, it seems that his allies in the anti-gun world have no
problem with taking your ammo!
The bill that is being pushed in 18 states (including Illinois and
Indiana ) requires all ammunition to be encoded by the manufacture
a data base of all ammunition sales.
So they will know how much you
buy and what calibers.
http://ammunitionaccountability.
org/Legislation.
htm
Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009 unless the
ammunition is coded.
Any privately held uncoded ammunition must be destroyed by July 1,
2011. (Including hand loaded ammo.) They will also charge a .
05
cent tax on every round so every box of ammo you buy will go up at
least $2.
50 or more!
If they can deprive you of ammo they do not need to take your gun!
All eyes are diverted on talk radio topics, bailouts, television
entertainments/news/propaganda, while state level legislatures are
placing the second amendment into a grave.
This legislation is currently IN COMMITTEE in 18 states: Alabama,
Arizona, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana,
Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, and
Washington.
Send to every person in these united states!
To find more about the anti-gun group that is sponsoring this
legislation and the specific legislation for each state, go to:

and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against

He's an A$$bag that will destroy this country.
Too bad you didn't get your man in...the gun controlling, open borders, rush back to washington dc to vote for the 750 billion dollar give to his buddies slush fund FREAK....
republicans, democrates...THAT is what is REALLY wrong with America. Ignorant masses of phrotoplasm..120 million of them..that flocked to the polls to vote obamacain.
What did you do? stay home and draw on yourself in the mirror asking if you were talking to you?
I think what HBall means is that too many stupid people toe the party line and stay faithful no matter how much the party screws them. Neither the D or R party is on the side of the people. They have sold out to special interest groups, and greed. Despite this enough people keep voting for them to keep these two a$$clown parties in power.
Americans don't push for gun control, Limiting free speech, advocating endless swarms of barbarians infesting this country..
I was unable to demean myself to that level.
Of course, there are 120 million out there that have no trouble at all crawling in the slime trails left by obmacain in their run for the presidency.
Be proud...you undoubtedly were a member of the herd.
Yet one more proof as to why the Founders despised Democracy. People like you eventually overwhelm the decency, common sense, and intelligence of the few.
