President Obama claimed Monday that a "consensus" is forming around the kinds of "common-sense" gun control measures he's pushing in Washington, in his first campaign-style stop as part of a second-term push for new firearms laws.

There most certainly is a “consensus” forming, but, not for more “gun control” and if King Obumbum could actually state a truth, the largest back lash in the history of this great Nation is forming and the day of action is coming! King Obumbum has awakened a “sleeping giant” and he and his ilk are about to find out the hard way why the American people value their “natural” rights and freedoms!

Why do you think King Obumbum continues to push for gun control, stating: “this needs to happen immediately, before the shock from Conn. wears off!” What he is NOT telling the American people: “this needs to happen immediately, before the American people wake up and figure out what we are really doing to them!”

Eight Deuce on the loose!

Oh, I think he's right. There is a consensus forming. It's just not in the Pres__ent's favor.

(Get it? "Pres__ent." It's like "President" but with no ID.)

when you exist in an echo chamber, everything seems to be a consensus.

and that’s a big part of the problem.

The Assclown IS right—consensus IS forming—forming that the Assclown should take his gun control legislation and “shove it” as Lurch’s wife would say.

The consensus is 5 million background checks in two months and 500,000 people, 10,000 a month joining the NRA.

10,000 A DAY (Hip Hip Hooray!!!)

Obama claims ‘consensus’ forming around gun control proposals....

It IS, but it is AGAINST his gun control proposals. Amazing how the media can change a simple sentence by inserting or deleting a word here and there.

Gun bans offer his free stuff legions nothing...there will be no rallying to him on this either.


You bet your high capacity magazines it does: Victims. When you want to go from Occupying to looting it helps to know that the victims wont shoot back.

Of course no one talks about the attack on equality. God made man, but Sam Colt made them equal.

This is nothing more than Obama and the media setting the Republicans up! Obama knows there is no way he can pass any gun reform legislation even if he had control of both houses. Obama and the Media want to make the public think there is strong support for reform but the republicans are blocking everything. He is setting the republicans up for 2014 where half the population will think it is the republicans are blocking gun reform, health care reform, tax reform, the poor economy, etc, etc, and of course the republicans will sit back like they have the last 4 years and let him do it.

Either the media owns the Democrat party or it’s the other way around. Either way, they’ll never stop shilling for him. They’ve sold their souls.

Alright, lets negotiate gun laws. You give up something, we give up something till a “consensus” is reached.


My compromise. We require background checks on all transfers, but the background check is simply a check, and there is no government accessible record of what if anything was bought. No model, serial number. That’s a private matter for the seller’s inventory records, like any seller of goods.

And the system may be used by anybody for any purpose, like a quick background check on a babysitter or prospective employee.

The “consensus” is that the proposals will be milked for publicity through hearings, floor speeches, and the news media, but that nothing of consequence is likely to pass.

Consensus?

What don’t they get:

“the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. “

Oh I forgot (sarcasm) the Left thinks it is time to throw out the Constitution. You know, that document written by old dead white guys, who knew nothing about our life today //sarcasm -Double Barf

Consensus?

Easy to see, look at the empty shelves in the stores that sell ammo and guns. That speaks volumes.
