When President Obama spoke in reaction to the heinous October 1 attack on Umpqua Community College, he went beyond his usual calls for more gun control and suggested instead that America consider following the path blazed by Australia and Great Britain.
In the mid-1990s Australia and Great Britain both instituted what were virtually complete bans on firearm possession.
Obama referenced the bans thus:
We know that other countries, in response to one mass shooting, have been able to craft laws that almost eliminate mass shootings. Friends of ours, allies of ours Great Britain, Australia, countries like ours. So we know there are ways to prevent it.

He doesn’t have a race war started yet, so maybe he will settle for a civil war.

I say BRING IT ON, he wants to see what happens if he tries to take our guns, give it your best shot Hussein, you won’t like the results. Meanwhile, in his beloved Australia, a Jihadist killed two people with a gun, yeah a GUN, in Australia, a country where having a gun is illegal, unless your a Jihadist or a criminal, than its all good

Most will hand them over willingly. Maybe enough to matter will not.

Obama has problems in Syria, but the real potential for WWIII he sees is U. S. Citizens owning guns.

One big difference between those other countries and us. Those countries swear fealty to a monarch. We threw off that BS thru force of arms.
Any gun grabber is a would-be tyrant who will brook no challenge to his authority.

His world position has collapsed. He has to oppress at home or nowhere.

Consider New York’s SAFE act, Barack.
Compliance is...sparse.
And that’s your best case scenario, in a very leftist state threatening severe penalties for mere paperwork violations.
