but Obama's comments suggest he's at least willing to talk about the issue.
“I – like most Americans – believe that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual the right to bear arms,” Obama said. “I think we recognize the traditions of gun ownership passed on from generation to generation, that hunting and shooting are part of a cherished national heritage.
“But I also believe that a lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers and not in the hands of crooks. They belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our cities,” he added.

He should know that an American citizen can not legally buy an AK-47. Is BO just stupid or is this poisoned rhetoric.
Sad, you might get what you asked for. Even if obama is not re-elected and this law is on the books, do you think Romney would repeal it? If it gets on the books, we’re screwed. I think we will see a lot more gun control added if buckwheat is re-elected or not. Semper Fi
And if O'dimbulb tries to take our weapons every street will be.

Ahhhhhhhhhh, Obama now I see your rational for cranking up your FAST AND FURIOUS program, otherwise know as THE OBAMA RIFLES.
You, Obama, consider the Choom drug gangs in Mexico to be “Soldiers.”
That explains everything!
Stupid me, I thought that a Choom drug gang member, such as you once were, should be considered to be a “Crook.”
Is he advocating the disarmament of police SWAT teams? Sure sounds like it to me.

Let's start working to repeal the NFA and 1968 gun control acts instead of instead of countering their same tired rhetoric. Let them try to defend what they have already foisted upon us.
Barack Obama and his cronies belong in federal prison, not in Washington D.C.
Westport? It would be national news by tomorrow. :) Great pic.
Note to self:
Buy an AK before the week in out.
I surrender!
It’s funny how libs always refer to AK-47s. What is it with libs and their love of all things Soviet?
What he says doesn’t even make sense anyway. Notice he didn’t say that most gun owners would agree that AK 47’s belong in the hands of soldiers not civilians. He knows that dog won’t hunt. God just let Nov 6th get here soon.
Romney signs off on permanent assault weapons ban
"Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts," Romney said, at a bill signing ceremony on July 1..."These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense. They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people."
We can’t buy AKs.
But in Iraq, the US feels it is okay for every adult male in to have their own AKM.
So, why do the Feds trust Iraqis more than us?
You still don't get it. The second amendment grants me the right to bear arms to protect me and mine from the government along with self defense from you and yours. Get that through your thin skin, your thick head with your glass jaw covered by that empty suit.
Sincerely,
A natural born citizen
Pretty sure you CAN buy a fully auto AK-47...if you have enough money and want to fill out all the paperwork.
Last summer I was here...

And shot a bunch of fully auto machine guns/pistols...Was GREAT fun!!
The Colorado nut didn’t use an AK-47. He couldn’t legally have bought a real, full-auto one if he had wanted to. Obama is a liar.
