President Barack Obama has admitted that his failure to pass "common sense gun safety laws" in the US is the greatest frustration of his presidency.

The words “common sense” should never be spoken by that POS.

Gun Control: so important to 0bama that he ran guns illegally to Mexican drug cartels *hoping* that the increased carnage would trigger a public response that enabled him to disarm us.

Except for his "Civilian National Security Force" of course.

FUBO, as long as even the faintest whiff of such a thing could exist, I will stay armed and well stocked with ammo.

Molon Labe!

How is an assault weapon ban common sense gun control when assault weapons are used in less than 2% of gun crimes? How does an AWB or magazine capacity limit prevent criminals from engaging in gun violence? There was no attempt to pass common sense gun control laws.

Or at least the appearance of mass killings...one in particular.

He is telling us in advance what his next “decree’ and Alphabet-directed ‘policy initiative’ is going to target and do away with.

Hiding in plain sight, because arrogant confidence in his divine power has made him a madman.

It isn’t just gun laws Obama hates it’s the Bill of Rights especially the first two Amendments. Obama has shredded the Constution, but has never totally succeeded in gaining near dictatorial control because of the threat of the Second Amendment .
