I just wish I had a warehouse full to sell.
As has been pointed out in other threads on this topic, the GCA of 1934 was passed in the middle of The Great Depression. There's always room for Jello, and (given a majority in the House and Senate and some negative event to fan the flames) there's always time to pass AWBII.I expect that fixing the economy, or trying, is going to occupy most of the next administration no matter who is elected. Guns have to be pretty low on the list. If they aren't, then somebody's priorities are pretty crazy, and trying to pass an AWB during a plummeting economy is going to look, well, stupid. Doesn't mean it can't happen, but the odds aren't as bad as they could be.
Any potential leader who does not trust me to retain the basic tools of self-defense has effectively told me that they DO NOT TRUST ME. I don't care what they promise after that, because it's irrelevant.I can't even argue politics in a gun forum. Too many single issue voters. This is not a single issue election.
Roger that.If you actually care about who wins the election do what people have done for every election. Volunteer to help the campaign of your choice and focus on RKBA issues. Do this for any and every campaign in contest, not just the presidency.
Address Gun Violence in Cities: As president, Barack Obama would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn't have them. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent, as such weapons belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets.
