The Latest headlines read "Gun Owners Stockpiling Over Fear of Democratic Weapon Bans". Tell me it ain't true. Many gun enthusiasts seem to believe that the Obama Administration is going to restrict ones Second Amendment right to own a firearm. Obama clearly said during his campaign that he support Second Amendment rights and not infringe.
A spokesman for Obama's transition team said, in a written statement that Obama "respects the constitutional rights of Americans to bear arms," and that he will "protect the rights of hunters and other law-abiding Americans to purchase, own, transport and use guns." Was he telling the truth? Well, in a post election November 7, 2008 memorandum, he now says "They (Obama & Biden) support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent..."
It's no secret that Obama supported gun bans as a State Legislator. In the 1990's when asked about handguns, he simply responded that “I don’t believe that people should be able to own guns.”
Will the real Obama please stand up?
