Michelle Obama would want a gun to protect her family if we lived in rural area, President reveals in firearms debate

President reveals Michelle's comments that were made on a visit to rural Iowa Barack says the First Lady's words are 'absolutely right' as people occupy 'different realities' Obama also said he was not trying to take away other Americans' constitutional right to purchase firearms Speaking at the debate, Taya Kyle told the President that tightening gun laws 'would not work'

Michelle Obama would want a 'shotgun or rifle' to make sure her family were protected if living in a rural area, Barack Obama revealed in a televised gun debate on Thursday.

This came as the President assured the nation that he was not trying to spearhead a 'conspiracy' to take away other Americans' constitutional right to purchase firearms.

Obama said he recalled that when he was campaigning for office and he and Michelle visited farms in rural Iowa, his wife told him: 'If I was living in a farmhouse where the sheriff's department is pretty far away and somebody can just turn off the highway and come up to the farm, I'd want to have a shotgun or a rifle to make sure that I was protected and my family was protected.'

Barack said that she 'was absolutely right' and that part of the reason the debate ends up being such a difficult issue is because 'people occupy different realities'.

This is not the first time that Michelle has waded into the firearms debate.

In 2013, she made a tearful address at a debate in Chicago, where she urged for a 'common-sense reforms to protect our children from gun violence'.

High crime urban areas are worse than rural when it comes to police response.

No, three guesses. Hint: One somewhat elongated, the other two more spherical in shape.

Ah, what a mighty, towering mound of steaming horse hockey. What next, Obama will tell us that the Mooch knows how to disassemble and reassemble an M1911 while blindfolded so as to demonstrate that he and the wifey are “big time gun nuts”?”””””

Next, Obama will try to tell he that Michelle can:

Grow a massive garden-—all organic, doncha know

Bake her own bread

Milk their goat or cow

Spin the sheep wool & make all their winter clothes

Hitch up the team to the wagon to go to town & get supplies

Plow a straight line in the field

Sew the seeds & cultivate the crop until harvesting the crop

Build/repair any fences that need repair

Home school the kids & grandkids

Make the paper & bind the books needed for schooling

And and and and.........

All of this from a woman who needs over 100 ‘aides’ as her position in the White Hut exemplifies.

Michele Obama is simply a white-hating racist.”””

Michelle’s college thesis-—

WHY I HATE AMERICA

That says it all.

Hilarious.
All of us “bitter clingers” manage to get along just fine in the very culturally rich, diverse rural area where I live.

Everybody ‘round here —black, white, Hispanic, Vietnamese, Cherokee—goes to church, and everybody is armed. That’s not at all contradictory, nor is it racist; and this is exactly what Obama and his ilk don’t get.

Our Bibles give us the kind of peace, in our families and our community, that can only be built on a firm moral foundation, and our guns maintain that peace by protecting us from those without any such moral restraint.

Rural areas? I would think most would-be criminals might have an idea that any attacks in rural homes might be met with a 12-gauge muzzle to their faces.

It's in the cities where one has to be protected. And when seconds count, the police are minutes away, if not longer. The only reason to call the police in the cities are to file a report. Depending on your luck, it may be a simple robbery or assault. If you're not lucky, it could be a homicide investigation.

In other words, they fear all the people in fly-over land.

Regular Americans scare the poo out of them.
