Obama....

Kids shoot each other because they don't have anybody raising them at home, NOT because they don't "love themselves".

It's always somebody other than the "parents" who are at fault; the gunshops, schools, society, etc.. The folks who turn their kids loose on the streets day in and out are almost always portrayed as victims when their little gangbanger's luck runs out.

Typical Obama, though. Blame guns, and demand the rest of the country pay for "afterschool programs" (i.e. BABYSITTERS).
 
^^^ I was about to say the same thing. You know, with these liberals it seems thst everything is always someone els'e fault. What the hell happened to accountability for one's own actions?
 
The Chicago Tribs Story

The following has more detail.

Obama called for better enforcement of existing gun laws, tighter background checks on gun buyers and for making an expired assault weapon ban permanent.

"A couple weeks ago, cops found an AK-47 near a West Side school," he said. "That type of weapon belongs on a battlefield, not on the streets of Chicago."

But Obama said the "power of the gun lobby in Washington" has blocked tougher gun laws and enforcement.

"If you want to go hunt, go hunt. Nobody is trying to take your shotgun or rifle away," he said. "But when you've got the gun lobbying saying that we can't use ballistics to trace back where guns came from ... then it is time for us to stand up to the gun lobby and say enough. It is time for a change in Washington."

Later in a brief meeting with reporters, Obama said he suspects the majority of National Rifle Association members are not opposed to some tighter restrictions.

"I believe that the majority of NRA members would not object to doing a background check from a bullet that has been used to kill a child on the South Side of Chicago, or the West Side, and find out who sold that gun," he said. "That's a law that's already in the books. The problem is that we're not enforcing it."

Obama also told reporters that he has never hunted, although he has fired a gun on a firing range.

"That wasn't part of my growing up, but I am sympathetic, as I say, to the fact that if you go down to Downstate Illinois, that's an important part of the culture there and people use guns responsibly in those situations."

Obama really represented a chance for the Democrats to show that they were changing their old ways and dropping the gun grabbing image. Instead, we get this.

Disgusting. :banghead:

Was this the little liberal doing the NON separation of Church and State dance today at the little liberal liberation theology church. I had read he was going to do politics I mean speak about gun control at church today.. Hypocrite to the end. Makes me ill. He is worse than Hilliary. He is truly a left wing radical and has the history of such. HIs minister is a black separatist. I fear his politics. I do not however think he will win. If he does watch out. I would for ONE time like the MSM to see their bias. When are they ever going to speak of the liberal Christians pushing their religion down everyones throats. Oh that is correct they will not. Truely I think they are blind and dumb. This one issue makes me madder than a messed up hornet. Please someone somewhere point out the liberal theology being preached and prodded on us . Social Justice my butt more like Marxism wrapped in the Bible..:cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss:

My question: If you admit that the current rules aren't being inforced then why on earth make more of them?

Yea, that way we can blame an honest business owner for the murder committed by some fitty-cent wannabe.

What could go wrong?
 
Why is it that these people cannot be prosecuted as traitors to the the Constitution? And to the people who elected them?

Everything he said as quoted was rubbish and he obviously does not base any of his ideas about guns in any facts.
 
Dont forget Hillary Clinton,Fred Thompson, Rudy Guiliani, Mitt Romney, and John McCain when you start to look at the domestic enemies.

Bingo. Besides Bill Richardson and Ron Paul, I bet every other major candidate would sign a permanent assault weapon ban.

If you don't see any difference between those candidates on guns, then you might as well quit and go home now because you aren't going to be satisfied with anything less than an absolute 100% abandonment of all gun control and you aren't going to get that - even if you did elect Ron Paul.

There are important differences between Fred Thompson or John McCain and Hillary Clinton. McCain for example has never supported the AW ban, even after he took $2 million in campaign funds from AGS.
 
He's just sooo pretty. When he talks, I don't even hear the words---I just tingle with emotion. I feel so small and helpless beside his urbane and gentle wonderfulness. I know he can lead us all to glory, if only we will trust him.

His personal knowledge of firearms is painfully nil---and his approach seems to be that some firearms might be allowed somewhere wherever it is that no one of importance to him might be--like in the primative preserve he calls 'downstate Illinois'. But it's part of 'their culture' and they know how to be safe.

Amazing.

HAHAHA Yeah I missed that gem.

Obama is in for a nasty surprise if he thinks ANYONE in the NRA would support something like HR 1022. If his political advisers are telling him this, he needs to fire them ASAP.
