He is certainly making it harder for people to own a gun in the first place. Its getting worse, for example he just announced he wants the 47,000 people on the "No Fly List" banned from owning guns. There are alot of innocent people on that list, no due process which is unconstitutional. Most shouldnt be on there. Kids are on that list. U.S. Marines, congressmen, journalists, nuns, as well as federal air marshals are on that list. Its crazy I know, but Obama is a crazy blood thirsty war mongering power hungry dictator.

Are you under the impression I am a die-hard Obama supporter?
I've not once stood up for any of his policies. I've just pointed out fallacies in arguments against him. I'm being objective.
You can't equate wanting to ban assault rifles and people on the know fly list to banning ALL fire arms. They are not the same. It is an argument that makes you look stupid.

I thought you might have been a non-gun guy. Good to hear you're not. We're all entitled to our opinions, and mine is that some of his ideas are a gateway to stricter legislation, with confiscation as the end goal. Maybe a ridiculous fear, but one that I have.
I used to do a lot of hunting in my younger days. Any more, I'm just not into killing animals (but have zero problems with those who want to). Still do a bunch of target shooting. You can sleep as late as you want!

The party who wants to have less guns, less war, help the poor, accept human beings, exhibit tolerance, earth/environment living, etc. has been twisted into the antichrist. While the party of the rich, intolerant, war mongering, gun loving, xenophobes has been sold to you as the party of Jesus Christ himself. What a freaking joke.
Both parties are a scam, but Jeezus Krist, I can't even make the logical connection. Religion and politics and logic are molded to what groups want them to be. Fuk logic goes right out the window.

Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars thru the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
‘Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war’s desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav’n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: “In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Stop taking things so personal here and counter with personal insults. Stick to the debate.
And no, I have no idea if you like Obama or not, I just dont like him. If you dont like him as much as I dont like him, Im going to try to convince you he is worse than you originally thought, lol.
He wants to severely restrict alot of people and ban them from owning ALL fire arms. We have 47,000 he already plans to restrict them of their Constitutional rights and ban them from owning ALL firearms.
He said it out of his own mouth Sunday night. “To begin with, Congress should act to make sure no one on a No-Fly List is able to buy a gun,”
So if you think I look stupid because Im equating the a gun ban to the no fly list so be it, but its Obama's fault. I know its not nation wide but incrementally stripping our constitutional rights is never a good thing

I'm not taking things personal. I suppose its hard to convey tone on a forum.
If you believe a ban on assault rifles is the same as a ban on all guns, I don't feel bad for calling you stupid. It is not the same. You can own pistols. You can own rifles. You can own shotguns. Those are firearms. Which you can own. Despite 'ALL' being banned.
Sure, regulation of any kind can lead to more and more regulation. The same can be said about deregulation. Having ZERO gun control is a bad idea. In fact, it is a down right terrible idea. Can you get guns on the black market? Sure. You can buy a liver on the black market. You can buy heroin. That doesn't mean it isn't a legitimate government interest.
As far as the do not fly list. There are also a lot of suspected terrorists on the list.

Government consistently infringes our rights, if you let them incrementally take them away there are plenty of polititions that would love to take them all away like Dian Feinstein of Cali. It wouldnt suprise me if Obama would love to take them all away too, he is a pathetic liar and always has a hidden agenda.
Obama is incriminating people with his No fly list and his secret "Kill List" without due process and should be removed from office for abusive powers. I dont care if the both lists have only 1 person, thats too much.
Its not guilty until proven innocent, its innocent until proven guilty. I could care less about the no fly list unless there are actual prosecuted criminals on it. Let law enforcement and the FBI do their job the old fashioned way. If they suspect someone is planning an attack they can go to a judge and request a warrant.
We are guaranteed due process under the Constitution, so if Obama wants to strip the guaranteed Constitutional rights of 1 person to me its the same has stripping it from 300 million. Just 1 person that Obama is stripping of their guaranteed rights is a violation of his oath and calls for immediate impeachment.

Ok.....I can go along with that. The problem is, who decides who gets to and who doesn't? Because it's not ALL going to be black and white. Much like the No Fly List. If you look at SOME of the people on it, why shouldn't they be allowed to buy a gun? Unfortunately, it's an all or nothing deal that I have issues with.

You're right it has to be the right set up. But we have no problem for stripping constitutional rights for someone who made a mistake in life. I'm a felon. But I'm not an idiot. I made some mistakes earlier in life that have stripped me of my rights. A fully functioning, opinionated, member of society would-be voter, if I could. I'd also like to own a hand gun to protect my home and family legally. But I can't. You see it's an "all or nothing" mindset for felons.

And similar considerations, mental health, behavioral past/patterns, a fuuking reference or two, can't be made for anybody else looking to buy a gun? Especially high powered guns. I really don't care if Joe-Bob has a shot gun or 30/30. But if he wants an AR-15 he needs to show that he's capable to some standard and consideration.

Which also needs to be evaluated by case. I don't know you, but I've read enough of your posts to know that you're not an idiot. Unfortunately, we have people who are in charge that are idiots, and too many people who are afraid of felons, or blacks, or rednecks, or muslims, and feel that they need protected from them.

Which is why people should love CCW permits. For most states (all but 7), you have to pass an extensive background check (state and federal in some states) and submit fingerprints, as well as demonstrating marksmanship skills and pass classroom testing.
