Sen. Barack Obama said Tuesday he is “a strong supporter of the Second Amendment” and will not try take Americans’ guns away if elected.This week I'm buying another 10 AR-15 standard capacity magazines...so should you!
“I believe it’s an individual right,” he said in an interview following Tuesday’s speech at [University of Nevada, Reno]. “Lawful gun owners have nothing to fear from an Obama Administration.”
But, Obama said, he is for “some common sense gun safety laws.” He said that means keeping weapons out of the hands of criminals, the mentally ill and children.
“And we need a system that makes sure we can trace guns back to the original owners and dealers.”[1]
What Obama isn’t saying is that in order to “trace guns to the original owners” we must enact national gun owner licensing and registration for each gun purchased. Such policies have both historical and future significance.
There is documented evidence that registration and licensing leads to confiscation, often with horrible unintended results.

Good Gun Control Analysis Post...
...from Howard Nemerov:
62 and counting. Trying to get to 100

If you think that your going to get stuff "grandfathered" again forget about it. This isn't 1994.
ReplyDeleteCloser to "1984"
ReplyDelete“Lawful gun owners have nothing to fear from an Obama Administration.”
ReplyDeleteTranslation: Just obey all the extremely restrictive laws he wants to pass and you won't have to fear having your door broken down and your body shot full of holes.
Obama's Harvard Law School education makes him extremely cunning at deception.
Come take my ARs and AKs Obamarama!
ReplyDeleteWe'll see how 62 gr. green tip does against baby blue UN helmets.
“And we need a system that makes sure we can trace guns back to the original owners and dealers.”
ReplyDeleteWe already have that. It's the serial number on the gun and the 4473 that the original gun purchaser fills out.
I would note one big thing about BHO, nobody has ever heard the word "freedom" come from his lips, not once, ever.
ReplyDeleteGood reason why, he is the biggest enemy of Freedom this country has faced. He is an enemy of freedom for the rest of the world.
WAGE FREEDOM!
I just had those bumper stickers printed.

code3,
ReplyDeleteI suppose you are going to join forces with the revolutionaries in CA, MA, DC, Chicago....oh wait, the revolution never materialized. Frankly, I grow weary of such spouting off. We win politically or we lose because, push come to shove, you'll fall in line just like people in those states and cities that already have banned/restricted guns.
Stock up on ammo too!
ReplyDeleteI have about 95K in ammo
Over 100 AR15 30's plus some 20's
10 AR rifles
85-100 HI-cap Pistol Mags.
I started stocking up when Clinton was elected
We're not trying to foment revolution...we're trying to NOT be caught in the same situation a lot of us found ourselves in 1995!
ReplyDeleteSecondly, I want as many black rifles and accessories in circulation for a number of reasons:
1) More is better...the more black rifles in general circulation, the harder it's going to be for the Blue Dogs Dem to support an AWB that will claim there guns are "unusual"..maybe we heading this thing off.
2) More is better...one of the reasons the Clinton Ban passed was that in 1995, black rifles represented a very small percentage of the overall market, making it easy to marginalize it.
3) More is better...an AWB will be challenged under the Heller decision.
Thirdly, to borrow a concept from Drew Carey, who purchased Ars for his friends before the first Clinton Ban, if your goverment doesn't want you to have it, you DEFINITELY need it!

Actually, from I've seen Obie is being generally truthfullish when he says things about how he isn't going to take away our guns.
ReplyDeleteHe has supported bans on further manufacturing/sales of all kinds of guns, but not confiscations. He has supported making entire classes of guns non-transferable (not even as an inheritance), but not confiscating them from their current owner. From their estate, yes, but not from them.
Apparently, he doesn't mind too terribly waiting up to one generation to have all the guns taken away. So, now he can say that he isn't going to take your guns away from you.
