Sounds like Jennifer drank the BHO Kool-Aid. That's okay, Jen, we'll take him at his word that he wants to ban guns & ammunition and make the appropriate decisions based on his record.

According to Mr. Obama’s official Web site, the president-elect doesn’t plan on taking away hunters’ weapons or a homeowner’s line of defense. The administration says it would like to keep guns away from children and criminals and support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent. Mr. Obama has said at many of his campaign rallies that he respects Americans’ Second Amendment right to bear arms but that he favors “common sense” gun laws

The problem is that his actions have proved otherwise every single time! Like we are going to believe anything that comes from Obama anyway!

I wonder how many folks are waiting for payday or a tax return. I have a funny feeling that gun sales are going to stay high until February.

As an Illinois state legislator he supported a ban on semiautomatic weapons and tighter restrictions on all firearms, according to his Web site.

Well, there goes my .22 Ruger.

Those owners aren’t necessarily interested in automatic weapons and assault rifles, which could possibly be banned under the new administration.

Duhhh, those weapons have already been banned since 1934 (unless I missed a memo somewhere). Either this dealer isn't very bright, or the writer just interpolated a few sentences to make a point.

From my own personal experience in the last week, people are lining up to buy the stuff that will be banned first. They were doing a brisk business in shotguns and handguns, but the M4 clones were flying out of the racks.

If you want a rifle for defense, something like the M4 is eminently suitable as a "starter". I wanted something a bit more exotic, since my basic needs are already filled. Something like this will "dry up" even faster than the AR15s.

http://origin.barackobama.com/issues/urban_policy/

Address Gun Violence in Cities: As president, Barack Obama would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn’t have them. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent, as such weapons belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets.

Every time Obami states his "love" for the 2nd amendment, gun sales increase another 25%....

I was watching Squawk Box on CNBC this morning and right at the top of positive movers yesterday was Smith and Wesson.

He (Galand Conard) feels that since he is a law-abiding citizen, he and his two sons he hunts with shouldn’t be affected by any change in gun laws.

"Law-abiding citizen." Right.

"shouldn’t be affected by any change in gun laws." Yea. Ok.

He is due a wakeup call of the First Degree. His Magnificence Lord Barry Hussein Barak Soroto Obama the Merciful and all-wise will have a new job waiting for him.

Camp rules enforcer.

I have seen anecdotal reports that people are buying guns and ammo not only in anticipation of another AWB, but because they sense a storm coming.

Gosh, I hope we don’t get to the point at which individuals feel they have to tool up to make unregistered firearms in their basements and sell them through underground channels to other patriots.

That would be wrong.

Mr. Obama has said at many of his campaign rallies that he respects Americans’ Second Amendment right to bear arms but that he favors “common sense” gun laws.

Part of the problem is that Obama considered the DC gun ban to be a "'common sense' gun law."

And I loved Biden's quote of "Nobody's taking away MY Berretta!" Well, of course not, since you're going to be the VPOTUS. On the other hand, Biden wants to take guns of all sorts away from millions of law abiding citizens.
