Higher incarceration and longer terms for Obama sons would lower the homicide rate.

Better yet, restoration of the the black family by ending welfare would prevent crime in the first place.

But he added that upping background check requirements on gun purchasers is a policy that everyone should endorse.

There might be one Common Sense Background Check that any thinking person would endorse.

How about full, complete, and unexpurgated official collegiate transcripts for anyone running for the office of POTUS?

Common Sense Background Checks for U. S. Presidents?

A good thing.

Obama’s a fool. The American people are showing signs of becoming irritated with THEIR “representation”, and he comes off with this crap? The man’s got a screw loose.

That is contrary to ALL the studies and statistics.

EVEN if ‘stronger gun regs’ would lower the crime rate, ... (the truth is probably the opposite, but even if..........)
it does not matter. This is USA. In USA, ...”the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”

All gun regs (permits, licenses, background checks, fees, restrictions, etc.) are unAmerican and violate our Constitutional rights. Period. End of file.

IMHO. History around the world (and the history of our American Founding included!) could not be clearer... wanna-be dictators try gun-grabbing first....

“To disarm the people...[i]s the most effectual way to enslave them.”
- George Mason, referencing advice given to the British Parliament by Pennsylvania governor Sir William Keith, The Debates in the Several State Conventions on the Adooption of the Federal Constitution, June 14, 1788

Guns in the hands of good people reduce crime. End of discussion.

Mr. President, if you believe this, ditch the Secret Service and head to southside Chicago....unarmed....at night....by yourself?

Or....would you let your family go there alone....unarmed?

If you say no, and I'm sure you would, then you have your answer.

Hussein is a Liberal. There are no facts. There is only truth which is what ever is said by a liberal and it is truth because the liberal says it. And it must be believed or you are a racist.

I can’t stand listening to this damn creep anymore.

Me neither. It reminds me of a t-shirt I saw once that read, "if I wanted to listen to an ---hole, I'd fart."

He is a god-damned liar. Everyone gets state and federal background checks when they buy a gun.

He’s just pissed parents can pass down family heirlooms to kids. And also private sales between adults. It’s your property and you can sell it.

What would actually help is when convicted felons recommit crimes with guns, not to toss out that charge in the plea bargains. Maybe prosecute on all charges instead.

Oh great...it’s almost as if every time some high profile leftard politician or mediot brings up the topic of gun control, there’s another high profile shooting within a matter of days almost as if timed to reinforce their point.

He seems more and more like he’s mentally ill to me, not that the signs weren’t there in 2008, but I mean it’s getting to be obvious now.

Gun control would reduce the homicide rate? Based on what fantasy bammy? History and cold hard facts show exactly the opposite. Not once or twice, but in virtually every setting it has been tried in. Widespread gun control is a guarantee. A GUARANTEE of increased murders, rapes, and violent assaults. Why would any sane person advocate for something that will cause so much pain, anguish, and death. I’ll tell you why. Control.
