One month after the school massacre in Newtown, Conn., President Obama attributed the recent surge of weapons sales to efforts by gun control foes to arouse fears that the federal government would seize firearms.
Obama said he would unveil details of his "sensible, common-sense" program for tighter gun controls later this week. The president, responding to questions at a White House news conference Monday, said those steps would include "an assault weapons ban that is meaningful," stronger background checks and measures to keep high-capacity magazine clips "out of the hands of folks who shouldn't have them."
Asked at his news conference about the boom in weapons sales amid administration efforts to tighten gun rules, Obama said gun control opponents "have a pretty effective way of ginning up fear on the part of gun owners that somehow the federal government is about to take all your guns away."
The administration's gun control agenda is being fashioned by Vice President Joe Biden...

Fear? Hardly... driven by Patriotism.
Hmm...
Obama uses the term "folks" a lot when he's addressing a black audience, but he also tends to sling it about when he's lying to "white people like his grandmother." Is this a dog whistle for minority disarmament or is he lying?*

The fallacies and conflating this man engages in with every sentence are worth studying. Enthymemes, non-sequiturs and various appeals to......that folks are no longer taught to fight.

This Kenyan puke should talk! His Department of Homeland Security has been buying titanic quantities of ammo for months. I wonder what guns they have been purchasing?
So the Federales in DC get armed to the hilt and protected by Secret Service and packs of armed bodyguards while the Obungu plan is to disarm the peasantry. So they are more subject to the whims of the imperial city, Washington DC
dennisw~:” Obungu is like all Democrat hacks and tyrants, they know that every gun purchase is a vote against them and their criminal coddling policies. That each purchase is a check on tyranny even if the buyer doesn’t know this”
That is why the media call firearms : “Assault Weapons”
He!! NO ` that’s what they aren’t !
They are “defense firearms” from the Federal tyranny
overriding the protections of the Federal Constitution.
Keep voting —> buy more guns and Ammo !
Funny, I thought the sales were a reaction to the fact that we elected a low IQ QUOTA BABY ...once again, that’s low IQ QUOTA BABY to the presidency.
Obamadork, I consider the slime mold to have more respectability than you.
In fact I can't remember Biden being in charge of anything before.
Furthermore I have not had the impression that Obama does anything more than tolerate Biden.
Very unusual, TOO unusual if you ask me....
Darn right. It’s called self-preservation.
[Note tagline.]
The acumen of this POS asshole borders on brilliance.
“ban that is meaningful”
Prohibition started on January 16th, too. Blacks were given land. Caesar became Augustus Caesar. The English Parliament outlaws Roman Catholicism. Adolf Hitler moves into his underground bunker, the so-called Führerbunker. The UN Security Council unanimously establishes an arms embargo and the freezing of assets of Osama bin Laden, al-Qaeda, and the remaining members of the Taliban.

He shoves a program of massive government control of healthcare down the throats of Americans and then has the audacity to ask why people would be afraid for their guns.... LOL .... he really is an idiot isn’t he.... to the low information voters Obama sounds reasonable to people that understand Obama he sounds like a leftist nutcase, it is the job of the GOP to wake up the low info voter by explaining exactly how Obama’s policies are destroying their country...
He certainly has no intention of removing the handguns from the millions of sons that look like him that populate the ghettos of every city in America. Liberals have no problem if poor black kids get slaughtered by their own neighbours, one-by-one. it’s when some whack job causes a tragedy in a white, suburban school that they get upset and make plans to confiscate guns from law abiding citizens.
Just another thing Obama will blame on someone else. When all hell breaks loose tomorrow, he will blame Biden for the mess.
Okay Obama.....and your point is?
NY just killed the 2nd amendment in their state. Count on Obama to go as far as he can.
As if our Marxist president has a “sensible” & “common sense” bone in his body.
What he has is a turbo-charged ego & an ocean liner’s worth of hubris.
