I agree. We need more restrictions.

Very well stated!

I wouldn't own one and don't like my tax money wasted to promote it.

These liberals should be locked up.
I think old Yamamoto was right. Any army that tries to invade the US will find a gun behind every blade of grass. He just didn't realize that the real enemy was from within who would try and remove that threat.

Guns are not the problem. Crazy people who would do harm, are. "Gun free zones" invite masacres such as Sandy Hook. Let's remember that the crime was committed in a "gun free zone" by a person with a gun. The cause of the tragic loss of life was the fact that it was a "gun free zone." No one was able to stop the shooter, because only the shooter was armed! He could fire at will with no one to shoot back at him.

When will this reality ever sink in?
Then why shouldn't they allow people to carry guns onto an airplane?

extensions of their penises? what do you tell the millions of female gun owners? are you sexist too?

what do you tell all the people who carry snub nosed revolvers.

also, i dont think congress or the pres has the authority to actually decide on any item in the Bill of Rights.

also, if a registration scheme starts, i shall not follow it, no matter what the feds seem to believe.

Obamacare has provisions which PREVENT any further gun control. It is in the law signed by Obama.

For these reasons, the following language did, indeed, become a part of the nation’s controversial health care reform law:
(c) PROTECTION OF SECOND AMENDMENT GUN RIGHTS.—
‘‘(1) WELLNESS AND PREVENTION PROGRAMS.— A wellness and health promotion activity implemented under subsection (a)(1)(D) may not require the disclosure or collection of any information relating to—
‘‘(A) the presence or storage of a lawfully- possessed firearm or ammunition in the residence or on the property of an individual; or
‘‘(B) the lawful use, possession, or storage of a firearm or ammunition by an individual.
‘‘
(2) LIMITATION ON DATA COLLECTION.—None of the authorities provided to the Secretary under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or an amendment made by that Act shall be construed to authorize or may be used for the collection of any in- formation relating to—
‘‘(A) the lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition;
‘‘(B) the lawful use of a firearm or ammunition; or
‘‘(C) the lawful storage of a firearm or ammunition.
‘‘(3) LIMITATION ON DATABASES OR DATA BANKS.—None of the authorities provided to the Secretary under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or an amendment made by that Act shall be construed to authorize or may be used to maintain records of individual ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition.

Liberals carry those snub nosed revolvers I'm sure.

As for some registration scheme I will report all my weapons as stolen the day before that goes into effect. They want em they can go find who stole em.

Obama only enforces laws he wants to. Another reason he should be impeached for dereliction of duty.
