I will gladly give Obummer/Obamanation any weapon I may have...when he takes it from my COLD, DEAD, HANDS!
The UN small arms treaty will take care of that if we are not carefully. Hillary will be pushing it, and Obama will pass it by executive order, if that’s possible. I have no faith in our president’s words related to anything, check his record.
He wants you to trade. Your gun for his free Obama Phone!
