“Whatever It Takes” to Take Those Guns

Loading

So a kid walks into a college campus and guns down a half dozen people who had been forced to forfeit their lives because the state will not allow them to protect themselves, and what does Obama say about it?

Before speaking to a rally here, Obama said the nation must do a “more effective job of enforcing our gun laws, strengthening our background check system, being able to trace guns that are used in violent crimes to unscrupulous gun dealers — so that we can crack down on them — closing gun show loopholes.”

Obama said he believes in the Second Amendment, but that there is plenty of room for added gun regulations. “There is an individual right to bear arms, but it’s subject to commonsense regulation,” he said.


Mentioning his home city, Obama said local entities should also have the ability to have their own more strict regulations.

“I think that local jurisdictions have the capacity to institute their own gun laws…The City of Chicago has gun laws, as does Washington, D.C.,” he said. “I think the notion that somehow local jurisdictions can’t initiate gun safety laws to deal with gang-bangers and random shootings on the street isn’t born out by our constitution.”

Oh, and he said:

Barack Obama says the country must do “whatever it takes” to eradicate gun violence but believes in the right to bear arms.

So the six weeks of background checks in your state isn’t enough Senator Obama? What kind of roadblock shall you put in place now I wonder? Because I will tell you one thing about those “gang-bangers,” they don’t go through those checks.

I deal with the “gang-bangers” of South Central Los Angeles all of the time. In serving search warrants and doing Parole/Probation searches I have yet to come across a gangster with a legally owned firearm. They have guns up the yazoo to be sure, but they are all either stolen or unregistered.

They will find the guns.

But forcing people to forfeit their lives to satisfy the Socialist urge of the lefties is not the answer. Some of those students being armed would have solved the problem. Instead they were like cattle for this scumbag. He knew with a 100% certainty that no one would have a gun on a college campus because of people like Obama who have ensured that it would not legally be possible.

On this issue McCain is solid.

But hey, lets teach the conservatives a lesson and ensure someone will get into office that makes it that much more harder to get the protection you need to ensure the safety of yourself and your family.

Buck Fobama!

If those with a CC permit were allowed to bring their weapon on campus it would eliminate the situation we have now where they are virtually guaranteed to be Free Fire Zones for the perps.

Give me a battle hardened vet of Iraq or Afghanistan with a CC permit and the perp would either be confronted before he could shoot and perhaps stop the whole incident or at least use appropriate force to disable or kill the perp to minimize collateral damage.

I think the battle would look more like the early new Iraqi army where bullets flying everywhere. People won’t know the original shooter from the dozens that are shooting. Imagine if it was two gunmen instead of one and so the shooters start shooting each other in the mass confusion. Even the police have trouble. A quarter of of the police that have been shot were shot by other police officers.

The kid that bought at least two of those did not buy them legally like the press said.
“Since 1968, individuals deemed mentally ill by the legal system are not supposed to be able to buy guns.”

At the end of this artical it said he had no known history of mental illness.

This artical says people around him knew he had stopped taking his medication, which from the sound of it was to treat a mental illness (or at least the people linked the stopping of medication to different behavior in the shooter).

This story says the Virginia Tech shooter and this shooter bought the firearms from the same place.

I would have to say that somebody wasn’t doing their job.
1. If this medication was for a mental illness, the information should have been sent so his name could have been put in the data base use for a background check.
2. If his name was in the data base, the seller should have bothered to check the database.
3. So it could have been a doctor, the data base key puncher or the web site that made the error.

Well BO is from that great liberal State that has done so much to disarm it’s citizens…I’m sure he will try to do the same for the rest of the United States. He will get pushed on his anti 2nd A, anti Constitutional crap in the General Election, at least I hope he will.
Did the adoring crowds in 1930’s Germany also faint during speeches of AH?

issue McCain is solid.

He’s not all that: here’ GOA on John McCain. NRA (not quite as radically pro-gun as GOA) likewise has given him C/C+ ratings for the past ten years or so (he did get a bunch of A/A+ ratings, but that was 1990s and earlier).

“the notion that somehow local jurisdictions can’t initiate gun safety laws to deal with gang-bangers and random shootings on the street isn’t born out by our constitution.””

Oh yeah, we’ve got a big problem with “safety”. As if the problem is accidental shootings.

The libs always use this line, claiming that all their regulations are about “safety”. What a fraud
