Who will take my guns?

A SWAT team, after I, and several of them, are dead.

Well, McCain is not perfect at a “C” rating, but compared to Obamao’s “F” rating he is darn near Charlton Heston.

Anybody who thinks the 2nd Amendment is about hunting is foolishly naive.

There is NO right to hunt with a hunting rifle.

There IS a right to bear arms.

It is trully amazing that any gun owners in this story think that Obama won't “take their guns”.

Do these people have the capacity to look up some information on this Marxist's Illinois senate record? Or his anti-2nd affiliations?

If there are gun owners this ignorant of Obama’s plans, they are not only dangerous to our freedoms and liberties but to them selves and those around them when they are handling a firearm ... jeez, what dopes!

Here’s some background on Peter Snyder from Lake Ariel. Prior election info first(gleaned from http://www.ocshooters.com/newsletters/04/09.htm):

“Kerry’s the choice
I have been hunting and fishing for over 50 years. I am a Republican. I am voting for Kerry. Here are some of Kerry’s positions on guns directly from his Web site:
Kerry is a strong supporter of sportsmen’s rights to hunt and fish. He is a lifelong hunter. He is a gun owner and he believes in the right to bear arms. Kerry emphasized his strong belief in the Second Amendment. He has said that he will “work to ensure that the basic rights of all Americans to legally and safely hunt and fish are protected.”
He will support greater land conservation for hunting and fishing, and will work to prevent the construction of new roads into our remaining roadless areas, specifically to prevent further fragmentation of our forests.
Bush, on the other hand, is clueless on the environment. He has a devastating environmental record which will have long-term detrimental affects on hunting and fishing and our own health. Bush released new guidelines in January 2003 that will reduce federal wetlands protection.
Bush proposed a rule that would remove mercury emissions from Clean Air Act regulations that have been used to limit the most toxic air pollutants. Mercury contamination in fish is poisoning us. Just read the advisories in your 2004 fishing regulation manual.
Pete Snyder
Lake Ariel, Pa., (psnyder@ptdprolog.net)”

A little poking around reveals that this character is an evironmentalist/elitist/ignoramus. His opinion as a “shooter” is worthless.

“I feel that hunting is a right, and I don’t think anyone is going to do away with hunting.”

With all due respect, Peter Snyder, "life long Republican", you should study the Constitution a little more carefully.

Remember, Libs get their way via baby steps, like abortion revolving from third trimester to infanticide over time. If we give in on assault weapons, we’ll sooner or later be surrendering handguns and then our rifles and shotguns. Obama is scared sh-tless by an armed populace; if you trust him at all, you’ll wind up defending yourself against his Brown Shirts with brickbats and clothes props.

Peter Snyder, a life-long Republican and hunter from Lake Ariel, does not believe Obama will take his hunting rifles.

No you blithering idiot, he won't take your hunting rifles, at least not at first. But he did vote to BAN the ammunition that you use in your hunting rifles, and thinks a 500% increase in the tax paid on new hunting rifles and ammunition is a good thing! And Biden is EVERY BIT AS BAD, if not worse!!!!!!

WASH OUT YOUR HEADGEAR YOU MORON! ARGHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Biden has openly and proudly stated that he wrote the now expired Assault Weapons ban,
Biden’s stance on guns, and Obama’s stance on guns is the only thing they have 100% in common.

Expect the BATFE to grow 10 fold in the first 6 months, is my guess. Of course, they are top down rancid now. So, they will have a jump on the other agencies.

Synder said an assault weapon ban is not a legitimate concern for hunters.

“We don’t need assault weapons to go in and shoot a deer, or there would be nothing left,”

Very convenient that they picked an imbecile to interview.

As if a .223 or 7.62x39 are going to vaporize a deer.

And yet again, no mention whatsoever of the right to self-defense, especially where it is most needed like overgrown urban gutters where Senator Government hails from.

Also no mention of his record of both opposing every tool that makes self-defense feasible, or his support for jailing any who manage to defend themselves from the thugs who make up his constituency.

I’m pretty sure that there’d be some deer left over if I shot it with an M-2.... and that’s a .50 cal automatic. (I’m thinking a five round burst.)

But even so, a sustained fire burst of say 20 rds from a SAW wouldn’t ‘vaporize’ the deer.

Somebody needs to go take a course on physics and quit watching movies.
