In a stunning display of misinformation and lack of compassion for the families affected by the mass murder committed by a husband and wife team of Islamic terrorists, Obama immediately focused on one of his favorite topics, gun control, rather than on the much larger problem of stopping Islamic terrorists from coming into the country.
One of his demands is that the American people welcome into the U.S. tens of thousands of Islamic refugees, even while his top immigration officials admit that there is no way to vet the immigrants accurately for their political orientation. In addition, the Islamic terror organization ISIS has indicated that they are using the refugee program to insert Islamic terror cells into the county.
Obama chose to focus on what he called “powerful assault weapons like the ones used in San Bernardino.” It has been shown time and again that violent attacks are rarely, if ever, committed using assault rifles, and the designation “assault rifle” is itself a misnomer.
The name was chosen to give gun enthusiasts the perception of handling a military weapon, when in truth, assault weapons use standard caliber ammunition and have simple modifications such as pistol grip triggers and plastic black stocks which have no relationship to the operation of the weapon.
Obama went on to suggest that anyone on the “no-fly” list should be prohibited from buying a gun. The no-fly list is compiled by faceless bureaucrats who are unaccountable in their decisions regarding who is included. In some cases, someone on the role simply has a similar name as an individual who should legitimately be prohibited from flying. In others, it is simply a snafu committed by a clerk. Senator Ted Kennedy was famously included on the list, much to the embarrassment of the keepers of the list.
Those who compile the list do not have to advise those placed on the list that they have been designated, and once on the list it is almost impossible to have your name removed. More importantly, the list is ripe for abuse, and the idea that inclusion on the no-fly list would proscribe someone from buying a gun is especially troubling as it could be used for targeting troublesome individuals who support gun rights.
Obama calls for more gun control, page 2:
National security starts at the boarders
your an idiot !
The US Code contains hundreds of laws concerning peoples’ access to guns.
Even he could read this it wouldn’t change his mind! He came in with an a Soros Agenda!
Don’t have to go that far back just look at what the Muslims are doing in AustraliaSwitzerland,Belgium,current day Germany,France and i could go on but i’m sure you can see for yourself!
Why dont you try and control your crazy$#%&!@*black bros?
Not against our own security it is not and no amount of pouting, crying and staged shooting is going to change our minds about our 2nd amendment rights to bear arms.. By the way what part of that amendment do you and your fellow liberal American hating anti America democrats not understand about that 2nd Amendment of ours within OUR Constitution that you all swore an oath to protect??
Chris Leonard Like I heard radio talk show host Dennis Prager say today, there is absolutely no correlation between being very intelligent, and being a good person. The photo you posted is Exhibit “A.”
Gun control is necessary for national security? Doesn’t that sound familiar? Say it with a german accent. Ring any bells? That$#%&!@*guy have a very similar speech. Then he banned and confiscated guns. Then he killed millions of people. Unarmed people. The very people he enforced his gun control laws on.
Chicago, the only city in the Country where people join the military and go to war, so they’ll be safer than where they live! Another pathetic failure by the “Great Divider,” and former Chicago community organizer. Another one of his “legacies!”
