Obama Takes Gun-Control Campaign To Connecticut Again
http://www.nytimes.com/ ^ | April 8, 2013 | Jackie Calmes

WASHINGTON — President Obama is returning to Connecticut on Monday to again memorialize the victims of the school massacre there and to continue his push for what he calls “common-sense measures to reduce gun violence” at the start of a potentially make-or-break week for gun-control legislation in Congress.

Is there anybody in Connecticut willing to defend their kids against dumbasses like Lanza or take your pick? It looks to me like the same school shooting could happen again right now. Bitching about how many bullets a gun might hold reveals so incredibly much about the sizes of the minds of the bitchers as to be monumentally spectacular. Dunderheads understand overwhelming force and they will mind their manners when faced with it. But it ain’t in Connecticut.

“The middle finger has a specific meaning for tyrants.”

Do not be surprised if a number of pro-2 amendment folks in the area closet to the University of Hartford will be using that big time.

Has anyone heard anything about court challenges to the new Colorado, New York or Connecticut restrictive gun laws? Where is the NRA?

Yep. And no matter who or how many believe it, it is still and always will be a lie.

“...Is there anybody in Connecticut willing to defend their kids against dumbasses like Lanza....”
The “unwashed masses” in CT have been dumbed down into low-information, low-intelligent “voters”. Liberalism (communism) is a chronic, no-cure, mental disease. Those people are literally the “walking dead” mentally speaking of course. Once the communists gather up all the guns and their opposition is swept away, the commies will annihilate these “useful idiots” by the millions....just like Stalin and a host of other commies have done. Constitution State? Ha, what a laugh that is!! How about Communist State? It’s so sad. The very cradle of where our original stand and fight for liberty took place has now become the nest for the communist takeover of the country. I would suspect the symbolism of it was planned from the get-go.

Colorado Sheriffs Sue Over New Gun Control Laws

“Yesterday Democratic Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper signed sweeping new gun control legislation into law prohibiting ammunition magazines capable of holding more than 15 rounds and criminalizing the transfer of private firearms. Before Hickenlooper’s signing, Colorado’s Weld County Sheriff John Cooke explained that the new law is pretty much unenforceable and confusing:

Weld County Sheriff John Cooke said he won’t enforce either gun-control measure waiting to be signed into law by Gov. John Hickenlooper, saying the laws are “unenforceable” and would “give a false sense of security.”

Cooke said Democratic lawmakers are uninformed but are scrambling in reaction to recent tragedies in the nation.

“They’re feel-good, knee-jerk reactions that are unenforceable,” he said.

Cooke said the bill requiring a $10 background check to legally transfer a gun would not keep firearms out of the hands of those who use them for violence.

“Criminals are still going to get their guns,” he said.

Cooke said the other bill would also technically ban all magazines because of a provision that outlaws any magazine that can be altered. He said all magazines can be altered to a higher capacity.

Cooke said he, like other county sheriffs, “won’t bother enforcing” the laws because it will be impossible for them to keep track of how the requirements are being met by gun owners. He said he and other sheriffs are considering a lawsuit against the state to block the measures if they are signed into law.

Now, a lawsuit is being filed in federal against the state on behalf of sheriffs who were ignored during debate about the legislation.

The lead plaintiffs are sheriffs from around Colorado. They claim the laws violate not only the Second Amendment, the right to keep and bear arms. but the 14th Amendment which requires laws to be easy to understand. ...”

The NRA is still trying to figure out the CT law that was introduced, debated, passed and signed in less than 24 hrs. One local CT group is also going to sue.

Documentation File on the harmful impact of the Counterculture of Obamanation on America.

___________________

Barry Soetoro, aka B. Hussein Obama, 5 days before the end of GWB’s Presidential term, told ‘The Gullible’ the following: “We are five days away from FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORMING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!”

Going on 5 years now, the best friends that Obama could have had to help him achieve his above stated dastardly goal were the RINO leaderships in the US House and Senate, AND THEY ARE STILL IN POWER!

_____________________

IMHO, the Counterculture of Obamanation will continue to destroy America for as long as the US Congressional RINOs allow it to, and not one minute more!
