Barry Obama Considering 'Executive Order' to Deal With Guns

[Grindelwald]

How about simple "Free Speech" control measures "infringing" on your rights to post on this forum or any other public forum? Would you object to that? Would you be one of those Moron Free Speech Zealots? Who determines what a "simple gun control" measure is? You? I sincerely hope not.

I would just hope that, at some point, common sense would have to take over. But perhaps I'm giving people like you too much credit.

We saw the same behavior after 9/11 and the Patriot Act. All it leads to is less freedom and more government control.

But those were the groups the 2nd Amendment was meant for. Not the hunters, sport shooters or gun collectors. And are there going to be laws against how many magazines someone can carry?

I would sincerely hope so.

And please, spare me your homo-erotic John Wayne fantasies. We saw what happens when a group of alleged patriots arm themselves against the government -- they called it the Civil War. Is that what you envision.

How many more have to die so that prepetual adolescents can live out their dreams of holding off the Red Coats at the homestead.

Current market value of an AR is $2000-3000. I'd sell mine first rather rather than accept less.

And in a better world you'd go to jail for selling it, along with the purchaser.

I don't know what people will do if they try to take their guns, but they will never get my guns. Never. I don't own any assault rifles just hand guns but this is all just smoke and mirrors Barry wants to take our guns. A reasonable person would have to ask why, what is his real agenda.

I don't trust Barry and I am very suspicious of his agenda. It is clear t o me that law abiding citizens have a right to own whatever gun they want as long as they also take the responsibility for that weapon. If you have guns then it is your obligation to lock them up and to keep them, as best you can, out of the hands of crazies.

If you have a "crazy" person living with you, you should lock your guns up and if you act irresponsibly then there should be prison terms if that gun is obtained by some nut case because you didn't take all due diligence to safeguard those weapons.

Gun ownership is a big responsibility in this crazy world.

I don't have any guns, anymore. I went on a fishing trip and they all fell into the bay.

Are you saying you believe that anyone who owns a semi auto rifle should be locked up?

[Phineas Finn]

Ah, the ever popular Smokey 1 word games.

Yes, if a particular semi-automatic rifle is determined to be illegal, I believe the buyer and the seller should be charged with the crime and jailed if convicted.

How would the gun be determined to be illegal? You said any any seller and purchaser of an AR-15 should be locked up. An AR-15 is legal to own.

Obama Opposed Gun Ban Exception to Defend One’s Home

Wow - he really think he wants all guns gone.

As a state senator in Illinois, President Obama opposed legislation providing an exception to handgun restrictions if the weapon was used in the defense of one’s home.

Obama’s vote would have maintained the status quo, which made it a violation of municipal gun ban law to use a firearm to save your own life in your own home. But the bill was passed anyway without his support.

The vote is a sign of how committed Obama may be to strict gun control measures.

Was Delegate Don Dwyer piloting the boat on that fishing trip by any chance? He's been known to make things ~ including people ~ fall into the water.

And yet you guys were all for the Arab spring uprisings. I guess it all depends on who's doing the oppressing as to whether resistance should be considered.

When has the left ever used common sense? They want to punish the law abiding for the acts of criminals and lunatics. That makes no sense at all.

If our government keeps spending like it has there won't be 4 more years for anyone.

I like New Hampshire's slogan; Live Free or Die
I guess you don't agree with that though.

LOL.

Yeah and New Hampshire is a blue state.

[flyboy56]

LOL. Yeah and New Hampshire is a blue state.

Sadly I see the slogan changing eventually.

Since were on the topic of guns and the sale of. The same federal government and government officials that are all over the ban on assault weapons are the same people that sold tactical weapons across the borders to the cartels that has killed Americans and Border patrol agents (fast and furious) . Isn’t that a little hypocritical?
