We’ve done such a great job of keeping drugs and illegals out of this country, it’s obvious to me a gun ban will work just as well.

In fact, I knew Obama during the mid-1990s, and his answers to IVI’s question on guns fit well with the Obama that I knew. Indeed, the first time I introduced myself to him he said “Oh, you are the gun guy.”

I responded “Yes, I guess so.” He simply responded that “I don’t believe that people should be able to own guns.”

The NRA has got to use this in their ads, pronto!

With about 600,000 people with permits to carry concealed handguns, Pennsylvania also has more permit holders than any other state.

Hold on thar. Pennsylvania has more holders of ccw permits than both Texas AND Florida? Not buying this one.

We live in Pike County - - extreme Northeast of PA. We are being bombarded with ads showing an alleged NRA member saying he is for Obama and that Obama won’t take away our guns. The ads are playing on CNBC and USA and several other networks running on Blue Ridge Cable TV (affiliated with Penteledata). I have written to the NRA about this.

Obama's "General Candidate Questionnaire" (.pdf), dated September 10, 1996, and completed during his first run for the Illinois State Senate makes for some interesting reading.

Among his responses are the following:

Do you support state legislation to ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes.

Do you support state legislation to ban assault weapons? Yes.

Do you support state legislation to mandatory waiting periods and background checksYes.

Exact content may be new, but the core information has been known & widely reported for a long time: BHO wants a ban, said he wants a ban, and of late has played word games to pretend he holds the “reasonable restrictions” view - which in his code words IS a ban, just with delayed rollout in some jurisdictions.

The only place I found a historical take on Obama and guns/handguns was when he was a “law professor” at Harvard.

You have to ff to the last 15 min of the show to get that perspective

That's mighty white of him to say so. I thought he was only against concealed carry, "assault weapons" and semi-automatics among other infringements.
