Obama: ‘I’m Not Going to Take Your Guns Away’

Wall Street Journal ^ | September 5, 2008 | Christopher Cooper

So he tried again. “Even if I want to take them away, I don’t have the votes in Congress,’’ he said. “This can’t be the reason not to vote for me. Can everyone hear me in the back? I see a couple of sportsmen back there. I’m not going to take away your guns.’’

If I was one of those two guys, I'd have said, "You're G-D right that you're not taking away my guns, not while I can breathe." YES, I would absolutely say that to the sob.

Also, if someone called me a "sportsman" in that context I'd slug them - too bad that the fellows in the dark suits and sunglasses would stop me in this case. Of course, the only way I'd ever be that close to this statist, anti-gun, anti-American prick would be through sheer accident.

I am starting to think he is going to turn out to be a bigger fizzle than that comet Kohoutek way back when.

You got it! Everyone knows it now. The euphoria has worn off and even the blind can see that he is a dufus. Too bad...how sad...you're stuck with the moron now. Hello President McCain and VP Palin!

[ConservaTexan]

Obama will move on ammo if given the chance.

[Carling]

Well, at least he put this rumor to rest. /sar

[Redleg Duke]

He didn’t specify though that he might try to take them away.

[San Jacinto]

Hey "Ignorance", without guns, there would not be a United States.

[Don Corleone]

How do you keep guns out of the hands of people who already have them?

That's what his 'brown shirts' national police force will be for.

[Nachum]

I love it! He is insulted about his comments in San Francisco about "clinging to their guns and religion" and then says he's 'not gonna take away your guns".

I cannot wait until he gets hammered on this. Bwahahahahahaha!

[FatherofFive]

He will redefine “big city” to any city over 2 people.

WRONG! He'll start at 10,000. Otherwise a certain former mayor of a small town in Alaska might REALLY come after him!

[pallis]

Owussy won’t go to your home to take your guns away. It’s not his style. He’ll send someone else to do it.

“Even if I want to take them away, I don’t have the votes in Congress,’’ he said.

A Dem controlled congress with Pelosi at the helm? hmmmmm

“This can’t be the reason not to vote for me.”

Oh yes it can....I can’t think of any better reason not to vote for you Obama.

“Can everyone hear me in the back? I see a couple of sportsmen back there. I’m not going to take away your guns.’’

Of course not, you are just going to lock them all up at a local club and let us have them for our sporting activities, sort of like they do in England. But, it will only apply to shotguns, and no semi-autos of any kind.

And who said Marxists aren’t exceptional liars?

COUNTRY FIRST

"I am not going to take your guns away."

"I did not have sec with that woman!"

"The check is in the mail."

[Vision]

That’s so nice of him.

Obama: ‘I’m Not Going to Take Your Guns Away’

Pure BULLSH!T...plain and simple. If you tell a lie often enough, some fools will begin to believe it!!!

[Deo volente]

He doesn’t have to take them away. He just has to get Congress to slap a tax of $1000 on each box of ammunition. That will effectively kill the 2nd Amendment.

And don’t think for a minute that he wouldn’t try this if he thought it had a chance of success.

[The Sons of Liberty]

I’d like to see him try ....

[Oldeconomybuyer]

I wonder if Obama formulated his 2nd Amendment strategy during his days as a “community organizer”.

[Fresh Wind]

And what symbol will you use to distinguish them from a policeman?

The Obamalogo on a brown shirt.

[scory]

The guy is a down-the-line leftist. Nullification of the Second Amendment is a standard leftist policy from which they have never backed down. Once in office with a rat majority in the House and a filibuster-proof majority in the senate this guy will reduce the Second Amendment to a fond memory - or start a rebellion trying.
