"W-what's the problem then? I'm voting for Obama!"

We need a grand slam SCOTUS decision in Heller this summer, otherwise this country will go the way of Australia and Britain and possession of guns will be past tense.
This is a very dangerous man.
He’ll start by taking away your guns, then follow behind by implementing liberal social programs that will clearly demonstrate your urgent need for them.
Glad I am taking my concealed carry course this weekend, despite the fact it may only have a 12 month shelf life if this clown has his way.
Common Sense is in the eye of the beholder. O’Bama has no Common Sense. But he offers hope for change and change for hope and change for change and hope for hope of change that hope changes.
Over mine and half the country’s dead bodies. That said this as_hat is dangerous and his cult following just doesn’t get it. He has no message other than “change”. This is how socialist are empowered.
I agree, let’s wait until after the primaries for this.
This country will go the way of revolt before we go the way of Australia and Britain.
I don’t know about you, but I would consider someone trying to do me or my property harm as a “target”
“This country will go the way of revolt before we go the way of Australia and Britain.”
Here, here...
How about the taxman -
“he” does your property harm all the time.
"W-what's the problem then? I'm voting for Obama!"
I’ll second that. I’m already preparing.
the correct answer by Mike Huckabee:
Our Founding Fathers, having endured the tyranny of the British Empire, wanted to guarantee our God-given liberties. They devised our three branches of government and our system of checks and balances. But they were still concerned that the system could fail, and that we might someday face a new tyranny from our own government. They wanted us to be able to defend ourselves, and that’s why they gave us the Second Amendment. They knew that a government facing an armed populace was less likely to take away our rights, while a disarmed population wouldn’t have much hope. As Ronald Reagan reminded us, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” Without our Second Amendment rights, all of our other rights aren’t inalienable, they’re just “on loan” from the government.
Will they fight for those rights? Well, given that only 5% of gunowners belong to any type of gun-rights organization (NRA, GOA, state orgs), I highly doubt it. There are true believers out there, but they also have a lot to lose and the numbers wouldn't be enough to be labeled anything other than a "small gang of armed criminals" by the media. They certainly wouldn't be called "freedom fighters" or "patriots."
Not to someone who believes government intervention is the answer to every situation you may face in life.
Barack Obama's words
No. Mitt Romney's
When we run candidates that are no different from those of the other party, don't be surrpised when voters decide to just go ahead and go for the real thing & vote Dem.

>>Isn’t Self-Defense Common Sense? - Barack Obama’s Second Amendment is all about hunting<<
Self defense is just common sense. The Supreme court is good at finding non-enumerated rights - it would seem the could see that implied in all the other rights is the right self defense - it is THE fundamental human right - all the others depend on it.
At least I am a well armed criminal.
