Obama audio — I want to ban concealed weapons permits

Stop the ACLU ^ | October 30, 2008 | n/a

[Tree of Liberty]

“Well I, I, I, I continue to, I continue to, uh, uh, support a ban on concealed carry laws.”

I did not know that.

Really, I didn’t know that Barack Obama wants to outlaw CCWs (concealed weapons permits). I thought that I’d followed this campaign closer than most, but this one got right by me. For the record, I myself hold a State of Florida Concealed Weapon or Firearm License, having subjected myself to a background check, paid the fee (and renewal fees) and demonstrated proficiency and responsibility with personal firearms. Hell, there was a time some years ago when I was berated on a radio show for having submitted myself to the scrutiny of the government for having applied for a permit as a prerequisite to carrying. Now I learn that if Obama wins I won’t even have the right to ask the government to certify me to responsibly exercise my rights (obligations?) under the second amendment. Has he been asked a direct question in the presidential campaign about why he feels that way?

Hey, watch this. The setting is a WBEZ Chicago NPR radio program called “Eight Forty-Eight”, the date is September 13, 2004, as Obama runs for the US Senate. [yes, it is edited for time. You can listen to the entire interview at this link...look for September 13, audio link to "Campaign Notebook, Obama on guns and crime"]

Obama flat says, with pausal prompts omitted, “I continue to support a ban on concealed carry laws.” As I mentioned, I didn’t know that until now. It turns out that it really isn’t much of a secret, (”I am consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry”) but you wouldn’t know that from Obama’s campaign website, where you have to find his position on the 2nd Amendment under “additional issues — sportsmen” and not find anything about carry permits.

The windows movie file of the video can be downloaded here.

I apologize for the low quality of the audio in advance.

The Main Stream Obama's New Government Media was busy going through Sarah Palin's underwear drawer and Joe the Plumber's garbage bags...

It’s the nonmembers who still don’t know what the NRA is doing and they’re the ones who are screaming the loudest.

I still don’t see any NRA initials in their taglines.

The tshirt company is still AWOL from this fight.

[Shooter 2.5]

It’s your fault if you don’t support the NRA.

[Total Package]

This needs to be played in OH,PA,CO,MI,FL am I missing any.

another 2 weeks and we could have stopped Carter. I hope its not uh, uh, too late.

[jeepers creepers]

About an hour ago I sent the youtube link to the grassroots division of the NRA and just a few moments ago got this personal response. It’s worth our time to email as many people as we can about this.

Dear Gary,

Thanks so much for the video, and thanks for your support!

Take Care,

Obama opposes concealed weapons permit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-4jqZSEo0Q. Do you have time to make this into a commercial? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-4jqZSEo0Q

[MrB]

Have you seen the “Freedom of Choice Act”?

It nullifies ALL state level restrictions on abortion.

He has NO PROBLEM with federal laws that nullify any rights or restrictions the states impose on any issue.

BUMP

[Erik Latranyi]

The NRA has been publishing and advertising Obama’s anti-CCW stand with excepts from 2004.

If there are any reamining gun owner out there thinks it is “safe” to vote for Obama, they are clueless fools.

[P8riot]

I want to ban them too. No one should have to seek government permission to exercise their rights.

[Maverick68]

bump for October surprise...

[CodeToad]

Considering Colorado’s CCW is a State Constitutional amendment, he’d have to get a US Constitutional amendment and them would be fightin’ words!

[Ancesthntr]

“That’s what his “civilian national security force” is for.”

That he want’s to take away that right surely doesn’t surprise you does it? I would think that Obama, Pelosi & Reed aboloshing the 2nd Ammendment would be an axiom if they are to promulgate their core “values”. Is Vegas giving odds on how long it takes for the first state to secede and which one first?

OT: Having close associations with many US Presidents over the past several decades, the Reverend Billy Graham has been known as “America’s Pastor”.

Under a Barack Hussein Obama administration, which of the following clergymen will likely become the next “America’s Pastor”?

[Joe Brower]

I look at Obama's stance on guns this way: The end game of the political left is total, complete civilian disarmament and nothing less. Since Obama is nothing more than a front man for this Marxist agenda, we can anticipate him being against any law (from the Constitution on down) that would acknowledge such rights.

The same goes for all his fellow travelers. Once you understand the enemy, their actions become quite predictable.

[do the dhue]

AND Ohio and Florida voters.

[OKSooner]

What you said.

[do the dhue]

OK, here is the deal. We will give up our carry permits only if we can blow a whistle when we need someone to protect us; and SuperObozo or a Supercop comes out of nowhere to save the day.

People who have carry permits are not the problem. People who commit crimes with guns are. Enforce the law when people commit a crime with a gun. Matter of fact, you can even increase the punishment on gun crimes to show the next bozo what will happen to them. That is how you fix this. It is that simple and logical. Obozo does not get it, and he is not stupit. Those that don't get it, have a different agenda. Keep this Commie out of the White House.
