Obama Would Be Anti-Gun President
Mountain Mail ^ | July 17, 2008 | Anita Hand, Datil

Posted on 07/17/2008 5:43:27 PM PDT by An Old Man

I was excited to see the U.S. Supreme Court affirm for the first time that the Second Amendment and our right to keep and bear arms was and is an individual right as intended by our Founding Fathers.

Sen. John McCain understands this and he immediately praised the Court’s decision. Sen. Barack Obama still can’t figure out how he feels about it.

Barack Obama has made many statements over the years that lead me to believe he would be the most anti-gun president ever elected to the White House and also leads me to believe that he doesn’t understand our Second Amendment right.

FIREARMS REFRESHER COURSE

‘Those who hammer their guns into plows will plow for those who do not.’
~ Thomas Jefferson

(This is why BeeeeeOhhhhhh-Bama, Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton want gun control so badly! )

1. An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.

2. A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone.

3. Colt: The original point and click interface.

4. Gun control is not about guns; it’s about control.

5. If guns are outlawed, can we use swords?

6. If guns cause crime, then pencils cause misspelled words.

7. Free men do not ask permission to bear arms.

8. If you don’t know your rights, you don’t have any.

9. Those who trade liberty for security have neither.

10. The United States Constitution (c)1791. All Rights Reserved.

11. What part of ‘shall not be infringed’ do you not understand?

12. The Second Amendment is in place in case the politicians ignore the
others.

13. 64,999,987 firearms owners killed no one yesterday.

14. Guns only have two enemies; rust and politicians.

15. Know guns, know peace, know safety. No guns, no peace, no safety.

16. You don’t shoot to kill; you shoot to stay alive.

17. 911: Government sponsored Dial-a-Prayer.

18. Assault is a behavior, not a device.

19. Criminals love gun control; it makes their jobs safer.

20. If guns cause crime, then matches cause arson.

21. Only a government that is afraid of its citizens tries to control
them.

22. You have only the rights you are willing to fight for.

23. Enforce the gun control laws we ALREADY have; don’t make more.

24. When you remove the people’s right to bear arms, you create slaves.

25. The American Revolution would never have happened with gun control.

Obama Would Be Anti-Gun President,

This should make those who want to punish the Republicans
by voting for Muhammad Barr and Barack Baldwin happy.

Some still don’t have a clue Obama is a Marxist.

Let’s see, create a national civilian security force that rivals the strength and funding of the military, and confiscate guns. The only thing missing is a guy named Heinrich to oversee it.

GEEEE! Now who would have "thunk it".... ; )

Obama doesn't know where Obama stands on ANYTHING politically when watching reruns of his speeches, so why would one expect him to support the 2nd amendment? MMM?

From what I have seen of the empty suit, he stands for anything that is anti-American way and doesn't know how to convey it and still get elected.

its not that liberals like obammy dont understand the 2nd amendment, they just don’t care about it.
anything, like the consititution, that gets in their way of controlling your life, and property, can just be ignored.

people who take responsibility for their own welfare, dont fit their agenda

And sadly enough, many others who do support him don't care via living life with a mutton on their shoulders.

“Sen. Barack Obama still can’t figure out how he feels about it.”

What a joke! The election is a few months away and he can’t figure out how he feels about it?....ridiculous!

Obama's real position on trampling the 2nd Amendment was revealed when he was just an Illinois politician. Now that he's running for President, he's in full pander mode. Now he claims he supports the Heller decision.

Why hasn't anyone bothered to find out what Obama "taught" his students in his version of constitutional law? Bet a dollar to a doughnut he "taught" them it was a collective right only in the 2nd Amendment.

In the short run, it is Obama's ignorance in military and geopolitical maters which threaten America. But in the long run -- 30 years out when the last of the appointed judges die -- that the damage from Obama's constitutional ignorance will be fully known.

“,,create a national civilian security force that rivals the strength and funding of the military, and confiscate guns.”

Impossible. Will obama send out a battalion of metrosexuals to beat us over the head with their purses? Today’s American liberals are cowards. It would be impossible to recruit enough liberals to form anything like another Lincoln brigade for any cause, goal or action. Completely, totally impossible. They are cowards and comfortable in their cowardice.

Look at the LA riots. The liberal LA cops ran like dogs when confronted with unorganized mobs armed with rocks, beer cans and table legs.

He’d also reinstitute the draft. I wonder how popular he’d be with the college crowd if they believed that.
