I'm not an NRA member BOB, but this thread isn't about the NRA BOB. It's about presidential overreach of authority with regards to the 2nd amendment. You seem to be obsessed with the manhood of other men. Me thinks ye complains too much...
The 2nd amendment says no background checks? I think not.
If you want to be in league with the NRA that's your choice, but a growing majority of Americans do not accept mass carnage and violence as an acceptable price to freedom and democracy.
1) I'm not a member of the NRA. I'm a Constitutionalist.
2) Obama can't even get Congressional Dems to support what he's doing because even they know their Dem constituents are 2nd Amendment proponents.
But, sure, let the Dem 2016 candidate run on gun control...
In the meantime, it was a banner year for gun deaths in every inner city, where mass shootings are common. Obama refuses to focus on correcting any of that. Current strict guns laws haven't prevented anything in the gang-infested areas. The gangs won't be bothered in the least by his Obama's pen to paper effort. But it will be harder for law-abiding citizens to protect themselves.
Obama has given congress 2 1/2 yrs to come up with a gun control bill and they have come up with jack time is up something need to be done. NRA loves mass shooting after one happens they can fear monger the publican and there will be a increase in gun sales for 2 to 4 weeks after a big mass shooting There is no reason some need 5 to 15 guns 1 hand gun for home protection is enough and you do not need to take it everywhere you go like the park or doctor office
Even I didn't guess he would pull a Pelosi ...... BOO HOO - it's for the CHILDREN.
He can't get around the FACT that the killers in ALL of these Mass Shooting went through a Background check.
Adam Lanza murdered his Mother and then stole her guns for the Sandy Hook Massacre.
Not a single thing he wants to do (ignoring the fact that a Democratically held Senate rejected all of this) would have stopped any of those shootings.
Think the real goal is tightening up those background checks, adding more requirements. Define mental illness, perhaps anyone who has ever been prescribed an antidepressant or anti-anxiety medication. That would take care of most of the population.
I disagree. As he said, things do not happen overnight. I think people are getting fed up with mass shootings and weapons being available to just about anyone.
It might take 10 years, maybe only 5. But it WILL make a difference in time.
" I think people are getting fed up with mass shootings"
And not ONE SINGLE THING Obama has done will change any of that.
How much did Obama say about the gang and drug shootings that happen EVER DAY?
" and weapons being available to just about anyone." More nonsense.
Maybe we should limit how many words people are allowed to say or type!
Yes, I did. Automobiles are more deadly, both in sheer numbers AND in statistical proportion. There are no restrictions on who can own an automobile. Even kids can own them. And owning an automobile isn't even a Constitutional Right that shall not be infringed.
But, sure, let the Dem 2016 candidate run on gun control...

How is it going to be harder for law abiding citizens to protect themselves?
