What part of “The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed” does the professor of Constitutional Law not grasp?

He doesn't grasp any of it.

Yes he does.

I contend Obama/his cronies know more about the Constitution than most people on Free Republic, definitely the Republican Party leaders, lol.

In order to maneuver your way around your opponent, one must know their adversary. Obama rightly points out that the Constitution is one of negative rights (From the central government perspective) and people like Obama despise those negative rights. Hence they search high and low for every shred of case law, rulings, and quotes to disingenuously strip those negative rights away.

"He doesn't grasp any of it."

Yes he does. He has studied the constitution and even lectured on it, along with teaching the philosophy of Frank Marshall Davis, Saul Alinsky and Jeremiah Wright - among others. His purpose in life has been to reform America in a socialist model of, "all in need, all wanting, all equal". Of course that ideal excludes the elite who will always live like royals and look down on the rest of us. Those of us who looked into his past early on are not surprised, but many of the herd that supported him is in for some cruel surprises.
