Obama is just prancing around these days, sucking up to his Marxist friends. We have 300 million guns. Book closed : )

Why should this Kenyan be bothered by formalities required by the Constitution? The last time they looked for a copy of it in the White House, they couldn’t find one.

” there are simply too many armed US patriots to stop that from ever happening. “

Of course. This is a wasted thread.

I wonder if this is part of the reason for the shortage of 22 LR ammo? Mexico was a major supplier 5 years ago, but now I see none of it for sale.

>>If the U.S. Senate fails to stand strong against the U.N. Gun Ban Treaty, and fight back against every backdoor attempt by the Obama administration to implement it, we will lose our gun rights and effectively lose our national sovereignty.”<<

Well, gee wiz golly whitakers.
>90 million gun owners - 45 million intimidated gun owners = 45 million serious constitutional gun owners.

They may have something to say bout all this U.N. nonsense.

De-fund ALL the President's discretionary funds. Hell, make him have to come before Congress to Get money to fly AF-One. Approve only enough to let him fly Coach, just like his employers, the other peons. Allow him TWO SS guards. He'll stay home. Make him pay full fare for his family, out of his own pocket. There are a lot of ways the executive branch can save money. Cut the White House staff to a minimum. A janitor for public areas, a union scale cook, no maids, (the first lady needs something constructive to do). The only need for a cleaning staff is in the public areas.

When there are State dinners, he can ask Congress for approval and if they approve, they can hire a caterer.

[[Obama can decree any gun ban he wants, and the Senate can confirm all the treaties in the world, but until the Second Amendment is repealed, they don’t mean anything. ]]

[[there are simply too many armed US patriots to stop that from ever happening.]]

Again, tell that to all the NY’ers, Chicagoans, connecticans etc etc etc who have lost their guns due to gun bans- Many of them said the same thing “From my cold dead hands’ yet when the laws were passed, they gave yup their guns hoping the NRA would save them with lawsuits and litigation to get them back- they didn’t!

“At the same time, the National Shooting Sports Foundation found that while the FBI did conduct fewer criminal background checks on gun buyers this year compared to last, the numbers are still notably high. So far in 2014, 6.95 million background checks have been conducted. That’s down from the high of 8.81 million last year, but it’s still higher than any other year since at least 2005.

“Are consumers buying more guns than last year? No, they are not,” analyst Andrea James, of the financial services firm Dougherty and Company said. “But are consumers buying more guns than two, three, four, five years ago? Yes, they are.”

This has nothing to do with the U.N. This is America, and WE have a Declaration of Independence and a Bill of Rights, no one but America shall not tread on these documents. I don't care what Zero and his Muslims want to think they can do, they want to see the American People come unglued then try to enforce the U.N. crap.....

[[45 million serious constitutional gun owners.]]

ONLY IF they band together in a concerted effort and show of force to prevent it- none did I n the states I mentioned above posts- and I’m not seeing them band together In a show of solidarity and force to prevent the 1000’s of restrictive gun laws and outrights bans already inplace all around the country already- they’ve simply let the government and state govenrments whittle away, whittle away, chip away until ‘The right to bear arms” is nearly unrecognizable any longer due to the severe restrictions put on gun owners-

The only hope I had recently was when the cattle owners in Texas all got together to help the bundy dude resist government takeover of his cattle/land- But I predict, sadly, that if a federal ban goes through=- MOST of the country will comply, while only pockets of resistance will remain, and those folks will be labeled by the government as either terrorists, or ‘radical right wing extremists’ who are a ‘danger to society’ by government standards- There will be a concerted effort o n the part of the government to make these pockets/groups of people to look like extremist nuts like Koresh, Waco texas, ruby ridge timothy McVeigh Unabomber etc, and the left wing media freaks will be all over the story like flies on a gutwagon, and they won’t let up- and people like al Sharpton will scream bloody hell every time one of the few remaining gun owners uses their gun in self defense- The writing seems to be on the wall on this issue.

It WILL take one hell of a bloody battle for this country to retain it’s second amendment IF ‘dear leader’ goes ahead with his communist agenda- there will have to be another ‘shot heard around the world’ incident in order to get people motivated enough to join the resistance movement I’m afraid- But ocne it happens, I think it will gain ttraction rather quickly, but it will take a LOT to even get to that point-

I was referring to the grade school principal who wants the kids to bring in cans of food to throw at a potential shooter in class. No kidding.

Most of the owners of semi-automatic rifles living in Chicago, Connecticut and New York State did not register their semi-automatic rifles and/or other types of firearms, so a passive resistance may be out there.
