Former President Obama argued in a new interview that gun ownership shouldn’t be a partisan or ideological issue, amid renewed discussions of gun safety legislation in the wake of several recent mass shootings.

“I think somehow — and there are a lot of historical reasons for this — gun ownership in this country became an ideological and a partisan issue in ways that it shouldn’t be,” Obama said in an interview with “CBS Mornings” co-host Nate Burleson set to air next Tuesday.

From the man child who nobody can remember him in any class at any time.

From the man child who never attended faculty meetings EVER as a make believe professor.

He really is the magic...

I agree. Everyone should support the constitutional right to bear arms.

Amen!

From their perspective.

Courts - check
Elections - check
Disarm the electorate - highest priority open issue

The Second Amendment should not be an issue.

The Second Amendment should not be up for discussion.

Coming soon, though.

The Emperor Caligula ordered his soldiers to go to the beach and lash the sea with whips, stab the waves with their swords and throw spears at them.

you said it exactly correctly. It shouldn’t be an issue because it is a constitutional right the same as free speech.

If there was a way to get the guns out of Democrats hands, there would be a lot less killings in this country.

Obama never that guns were the end of the world. He supported gun deregulation. The Brady Center hated Obama.

But it is, because guns make one side (law-abiding citizens) safer, while guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens makes the other side (criminals) less safe.

I think you are confusing Caligula with the Persian Emperor, Xerxes, who had the waters of the Hellespont whipped and branded when a sudden storm prevented him from crossing over to invade Greece.

That’s right, Jugears, it’s a Constitutional issue.
