An Obama win will kick in the the original intent of the 2nd Amendment so my question is...

...I have weapons suitable for general home defense but in the event of a sneak attack inside my house what is the prefered handgun to put under my pillow that has the best stopping power yet is not so powerful as to pass through the jack booted Obama thug and harm my people in the other rooms.

FR is the home of both firearm experts and understanders of the 2nd Amendment...opinions will be taken seriously.

We are better off debating what kind of fireworks should be used to celebrate his concession speach.

I'm thinking some of these...

It will speed the collapse somewhat over a Romney victory (and fix the blame more correctly in the eyes of those about to be awakened). The financial collapse is coming either way. The re-institution of the Constitution has it’s best chances after the collapse although the interim will make NY and NJ after Sandy look like happy days. Keep your powder dry.

IMO, he will be impeached due to the Libya situation. Libya will not go away.

Krauthammer discusses this in the above article:

...”An Obama second term means that the movement toward European-style social democracy continues, in part by legislation, in part by executive decree. The American experiment — the more individualistic, energetic, innovative, risk-taking model of democratic governance — continues to recede, yielding to the supervised life of the entitlement state.

If Obama loses, however, his presidency becomes a historical parenthesis, a passing interlude of overreaching hyper-liberalism, rejected by a center-right country that is 80 percent nonliberal....”

The best handgun, in most situations, is the largest caliber that you can shoot accurately. The best way to avoid hitting friendlies is not to shoot at them in the first place- rearrange the furniture so that shots fired from the bed do not pass through the walls in ways likely to hit someone in the other room. Most modern homes are made of flimsy stuff and will be penetrated easily by any handgun worthy of the name. If you were to limit yourself to guns that didn’t penetrate drywall, for example, the .25 and .32 ACP cartridges will be good candidates, but unfortunately both also are notoriously bad at penetrating bad guys. So my advice- whatever handgun you use for other purposes, use for this one, unless it is a BFR or a S&W .500, or something of that ilk. If you use one of those you might as well get a rifle.

The world is made up of a lot of strange people. Most of them scare me to death. Even armed, your life hangs in the balance when you’re dealing with someone who doesn’t think the same way you do. I’ve even experienced the fear feeling in the comfort setting of FR.

At any given time Rush has twenty million listeners a day. I’m sure between ten and twenty percent don’t think the same way he does. People may be surprised to know, that second in listener-ship to Rush is the host of Coast to Coast am, George Noory. George comes in at about sixteen million listeners and ranks around 7th in most influential talk show hosts. To measure anyone’s value or impact by the makeup of the audience is to underestimate the fact that a lot of people like me have trouble sleeping at night. I tune in his show just because. I’ve never seen a ghost in my life. I’ve never seen a UFO or Big Foot......but I’m a listener, not a follower. Last night George opened his show as he usually does with updates from a variety of people who report on different events. (One of those who sometimes reports is Dr Corsi.). Last night one of the analysts said that Obama wins this election because of the electoral college. It was a brief summary of the reasons behind the analysis which were beside the point. My blood ran cold because I knew it was a strong possibility. It was cut
and dried....out to sixteen million listeners.
It is clear that Romney can win the popular vote, even by millions, and still lose the election because of a focused campaign run by Obama.

If anyone knows how to post that segment of Coast to Coast am, I would appreciate hearing it again. I hope I misunderstood.

Vote and pray that God will protect us.

What if Obama wins.

After a couple of months you turn to your wife and ask ruefully,"Why didn't we get out while we still could?"

The man watched 4 Americans, 2 soldiers, an ambassador and likely CIA agent die in Benghzi that night and then flew off to campaign then morning. ...undenieable

He said he gave orders to do everything to help, but the only orders being reported are "Stand Down" orders. ...which the media willl be forced to release after the election.

If Obama wins, nothing happens for a while. If Romney wins, you know what areas to avoid. You will be fine at home. Just be careful when you go out. Riots aren’t going to be the problem, those will end in a night or two. Ongoing individual hate crimes against whites will be the problem.

Avoidance of certain areas and situational awareness is the ticket. If you live in an urban/diversified area, a concealed carry permit would be a good idea. You should already have that.
