NRA President David Keene believes President Barack Obama and other Democrats who want to expand gun control have been shocked by the outpouring of support for Second Amendment.
Speaking to Newsmax TV at CPAC 2013, Keene said former president Bill Clinton was right when he warned Obama around Christmas last year to tread carefully as he considered expanding gun restrictions.
“(Gun control proposals were) one of the main reason for Republicans seizing the House in 1994. Americans care about the Second Amendment and president is seeing that,” Keene said. Keene was in Albany recently following the passage of expanded gun control in New York. There, he witnessed more than 10,000 braving the rain to protest the expanded laws, which he believes sent a strong message to the president and Democrats.
“There are rallies like that all over the country. Members of Congress are receiving lots of letters. It’s clear the narrative that the president tried to construct was wrong. That’s the reason that a lot of what (Obama) proposed is being slowed down,” Keene said.
