However, the threat to our Second Amendment is more likely to come from others, such as the Congress who has the authority to pass legislation. Obama cannot sign or veto unless Congress passes legislation. Also, don't forget the individual states and local governments. California, New Jersey, Massachusetts, D.C., New Your City, and Chicago to name a few, are examples of places that passed gun control measures and they had nothing to do with who is President.
Rather than sit back in shock and do nothing the next time some nut goes on a killing spree with a gun, we need to voice our concern and indignation at the event and the perpetrator. We need to stand up and say that we are gun owners and we are appalled that an unstable person who should never have obtained a weapon killed someone and the we are for keeping guns out of the hands of such persons. We need to drive home the fact that millions of guns owners are stable, cautious and law abiding and would never do such a thing. That is what we should be saying over and over and over. That is what the public needs to remember.
To me, bashing Obama at every turn is a waste of time and counter productive, cause it ain't gonna change a thing.
One after thought, all new media has an agenda, including FOX. It is just a case of who you agree with more.
I don't see the point. We simply need to enforce the laws and not make new ones.
