Flashback Two Years
I’m sure there are many current events about firearms and the right to keep an bear arms being covered by our comrades in arms. I am struggling for a topic to post, so I thought I would re-post an article I wrote two years ago when the Obamas were saying things they think we want to hear just to get past the Democratic primaries . . .
Obamas Show ‘Concern’ for 9-1-1 Response Times . . .
. . . in Iowa, that is. This is just another case of gun-grabber Democrats telling a segment of voters what they want to hear:
Obama: My wife sees need for rural gun ownership “And by the way, Michelle, my wife, she was traveling up, I think, in eastern Iowa, she was driving through this nice, beautiful area, going through all this farmland and hills and rivers and she said ‘Boy, it’s really pretty up here,’ but she said, ‘But you know, I can see why if I was living out here, I’d want a gun. Because, you know, 911 is going to take some time before somebody responds. You know what I mean? You know, it’s like five miles between every house.’
“So the point is, though, we should be able to do that, and we should be able to enforce laws that keep guns off the streets in inner cities because some unscrupulous gun dealer is, you know, letting somebody load up a van with a bunch of cheap handguns or sawed-off shotguns and dumping them and selling them for a profit in the streets.“
So let me get this straight . . .
Urban and suburban areas have congestion and limited law enforcement resources and lousy 9-1-1 response times - how can that be any more effective than the local county sheriff and his deputies having access to wide open country roads from widely deployed patrol sites? I’ll bet the sheriff and the boys win any 9-1-1 response time contests.
And then there is the serious “unscrupulous dun dealers” loading up vans with “cheap handguns and sawed-off shotguns” problem. Right. This problem is as common as when your Glock jams in target practice. Asshole doesn’t know what the hell he’s talking about.
Obamas are just as bad for our second-amendment rights as the Clintons. Maybe worse.

Agree 100%. I think they’re worse because they’re so damn SNEAKY about it!
And on the basis of what he’s said and done about other issues during his brief tenure, he’s a liar!

For someone who took an oath to support and defend the Constitution, he is doing a piss-poor job.
I wonder if he can be impeached for saying that he would defend the Constitution under oath and does not defend it?
Take for example, some of his anti-second amendment cabinet picks and broken campaign promises . . .

Anthony over at The Liberty Sphere has documented four or five (I forget how many) “Impeachable Offenses”.
Fat chance getting anything done about!

Not with this congress, that’s for sure.
