They would only have to ratify the treaty, which could be hidden in some other thing they don’t read.

So this is how it will start. Keep your guns but no ammo.

I am sorry, but I can’t.

I was on my boat with all of my guns. I was drunk and my guns fell overboard.

I was irresponsible and feel very stupid about the accident so I didn’t report it to the police or tell anyone I know. This life-changing event did help me to cut back on my drinking and during my moment of sobriety, I came to realize how horrible and dangerous these instruments of evil and death can be.

I am now a conscientious objector and I no longer eat animal flesh. I now have baskets of fresh vegetables all around the house in hopes of appeasing anyone that might come in my unlocked doors to harm me.

I am building a potato gun, but it’s only going to be used to call the neighbors for help should the phone service be down. I even planted some pretty flowers at the end of my driveway in hopes that the sight and fragrance will put anyone that sees them in a better mood.

I also affixed an Obama sticker on my mailbox so that others can see that I am for hope and change.

So no way could I join your hateful and violent cause, but I invite you to join with me in changing the world.

I would type more, but I have to go to the neighbors, because right this very moment....... I feel like I need a hug.

Heh.

Funny, that’s what happened to me as well. Must be a lot of that going around.

I really hate when that happens. Mine fell overboard in the Gulf in about 10,000 feet of salt water. I was trying to swat away the obambi unicorns who were trying to get to my cotton candy when the boat capsized.

This would be troubling indeed, if it were not based upon pure speculation about what the Administration might do.

I get enough speculation from the MSM as it is. Please call me when something real materializes along these lines...

WOW! YOu too???? What a small world. I knew I shouldn’t have stood up and leaned across to the cooler, but but I just couldn’t help myself.... the beer was really tasty, and at the time I was mad as hell my guns all fell in the lake, heck I even dove for them 3 or 4 times, but now I look back at that episode and thank Obama for the epiphany that has changed my life.

Some tofu? I made extra.

Truly Amazing.

Thank you for the offer, but just last night we prepared a tofu turkey.

I don’t think Obama’s enforcement officers will bother coming up to the house now that we have finished residing each of our buildings with recycled Family Planning signs... and put on rainbow colored roofing.

Well, I have to go make my under the table spending money, my PETA friends are bringing by several dead dogs for me to bury.

This isn't speculation:

In Mexico, Obama Seeks Curbs on Arms Sales

MEXICO CITY — President Obama, vowing to confront drug cartels that are “sowing chaos in our communities,” called Thursday for the Senate to ratify a long-stalled treaty aimed at curbing illegal arms trafficking.

The Obama administration had already pledged to send more agents to patrol the border with Mexico and more helicopters to Mexico. But on Thursday the president went a step further, announcing that he would press the Senate to ratify the long-stalled inter-American arms treaty, which the United States had a major hand in negotiating through the Organization of American States.

The treaty, signed by President Clinton, stalled in the Senate, but went into effect in 1998 after two dozen other nations ratified it.

Not speculation - he IS pushing ratification of this, and the NYT conveniently omits what the treaty actually means.

If we wait until it gets to the senate and they quietly slip it through, it will be too late.

it is what can the House and Senate do to him.

Agree that his opinion makes no difference to me, never did. As to the above...what they CAN do and what they WILL do are worlds apart.

It would have taken just ONE member of the HOUSE and ONE member of the SINate to stop his ascendancy to the throne. All we got were crickets.

All my guns, ammo and reloading equipment were lost when my shed caught on fire.

It was upsetting to see all that gone to waste, but it was quite the fireworks show.

This is getting fun.

They are clearly dying to ban guns. Ammo and gun sale have never been this high. If they do ban guns again, they will be voted out of office. If they come to collect them they are in for a nasty fire fight.

lose lose situation for the socialist.
