Obama has stated many times that he wants to ban certain weapons, and Clinton did sign a ten year ban in 1994. Some of you commenting on this thread are completely clueless about this topic and many others, thats why I seldom read anything that you post.
When you talk about "clueless", ya better hope you arent on the top of the list first. What President Obama has said, is that there should be a ban on ASSAULT RIFLES that can carry excessive rounds of ammo and then upgraded to FULLY AUTO weapons that can shoot HIGH POWERED AMMO.
These weapons were classified as COP KILLERS during the Clinton administration and when they were banned, peoples lives were saved. Once the BAN was allowed to expire by GW BUSH, mass shootings went on the rise.
Since, we have had the largest MASS SHOOTINGS in our country's history.
U want to call other people "CLUELESS"? Well, I got news for you... What is truly CLUELESS is not knowing that the handgun that was purchased LEGALLY by the shooter of GABBY GIFFORDS was on the Clinton Assault Weapons Ban list, but after BUSH allowed it to expire, that maroon was able to legally purchase one over the counter and end up shooting the congresswoman and her staff members killing a few of them.
What is CLUELESS is not knowing that the guy who shot up the colorado movie theatre purchased all his guns LEGALLY and most of those guns were also on the weapons ban list along with the magazines he used in the assault.
Our president isnt talking about taking all the guns away from the people, that is nothing more than an exaggeration by people who have the most to lose. The gun makers dont care who gets killed with their weapons, they never have and never will. Its like any other business, its about profit, and how better to increase profits than to scare the public into thinking the goverment is coming for their guns?
I have two gun shops on my route, and these jackholes modify guns all the time, creating fully automatic machines guns out of AR15's and such. They sell DRUM MAGS to any maroon who wants one.
They could care less how those weapons are used or who they are used on.
So I ask you, who is really clueless?
We have too many weapons available for public that can do massive damage to the public. Just today in Oregon, a mass shooting in a shopping mall, but where was SOBER with his trusty "friend" when the public needed him?
Gun owners will never admit that "GUNS" are the problem and will instead insist that its some Mental Issue that is giving guns a bad rap.
To that extend, I will agree, people who live in fear everyday to the point where they feel the need to arm themselves to the teeth, have a mental problem.
Peace
