I'm not happy about it. I don't like it. I don't understand it. I don't think it's fair. I don't think it will solve any problems. I don't think it's a conspiracy, I'm pretty sure the Sandy Hook shootings were real, despite all the viral videos and such. I've watched most of them and I'm still convinced it was real and it wasn't a government hoax to take our guns away. BUT.... Obama REALLY steamed my kettle with this. I'm not a political fanatic, but I am an absolute believer in protecting yourself with whatever means possible, and guns do a pretty damn good job of that. Crazies will kill people with whatever methods they must, taking any type of gun away from law abiding citizens sure as hell ain't gonna stop em.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable if the government had its guns taken away!

I have no issues with bans on automatic or semi automatic weapons. Stronger requirements on all other gun purchases are a goo didea as well.
Was Obama's thing more than that?

Mostly just some crap about agencies sending each other information or slightly increased background checks and a few million dollars for studies that will tell us the sky is blue and getting hit with a bullet kinda sucks. |

It was way fuckin more mild than his party ever wanted. But the Republicans and the NRA are still gonna howl at any mention of trying to regulate who buys what from whom.
I think the real nugget in the turd is the damned skiff on what we need to do for mentally ill folks. Keeping them safe/others safe from them...*shaking head* This shit just won't shine up fine enough for me, what Obama and his party are trying to peddle in Congrats. More needs to be done there.

Let's be honest, the mother of the shooter is the one who had the guns. Who in their right mind would have automatic or semi automatic weapons in the same home as a mentally disturbed person?
Hell I don't even have a regular gun anymore. With the way things are in this city, I was scared one of the kids would shoot back on the next drive by.

If Obama really wanted to save lives, then he should look at the figures. The American public's weapon of choice when it comes to murder, one which scores some something like thirty lives for every one gun death, is readily accessible to even the youngest child, and routinely used in every school without a second thought of the danger. Most families have a couple of them just lying around the house or garden, and there are no restrictions on who can buy or carry one. The weapon? Baseball Bats.

I love my baseball bats. I have a few around the house.
I love my shotgun better, but I'm weird.
