Thanks for the warm wishes, but no gun owner I know voted for Obama. PA (or any state) is not a monolith. Keep that in mind when bad-mouthing entire groups of people.

“Thanks for the warm wishes, but no gun owner I know voted for Obama.”

I was surprised to see an 0bama bumper sticker on a pickup when I was at the range a few weeks ago. It was a Sunday and the place was mobbed.

Here in PA, I know many gun owners who voted for Obama because they felt he was "safe" on the issue.

Others voted for Obama because, incorrectly, they think the Heller decision will protect them.

I would not be surprised to see Obama shoot this down. Bobby Rush is a 'friend' who is helping create this image of Obama as OK on guns. That way, when Obama proposes more "reasonable" controls, it will be swallowed easier by the rubes.
