Will Obama curb the right to buy arms or will the NRA block him? - GoFuckYourself.com

Paul Markham · 01-02-2016, 02:38 AM

Obama to take unilateral action on US gun violence.

There's no denying the US needs to relook at the Second Amendment now we're in a fight against terrorists. Or that the ease of owning a gun has led to many needless deaths.

The problem is who rules, elected politicians or big business?

And to claim it won't be 100% effective, is stupid. That argument can be applied to drunk driving or bank robbery.

Paul Markham · 01-02-2016, 02:55 AM

A simple rule, making the selling of guns something that was regulated by the local police. Would reduce the number and power of guns held by people who clearly have no right to own one. You need a license to drive a car, own a dog, sell hot dogs on a corner. So why not owning a gun, with an annual inspection that the owner is still capable?

And when people on Terrorist Watch Lists are able to walk into a gun store and buy as many as they can afford. You know the time for change is past.

What are the checks made before a person can buy a gun? Mentally ill, criminal, has a history of violence, has a family with issues, suspected terrorists, etc. Or just a driving license?

A question this big has to be discussed in greater terms than. Men in fear of the British, French, Indians, Bears, Wolves said everyone had a right to own a musket. so now I can own as many assault weapons as I choose, with huge magazines of armor piercing bullets. Is my right.

Well, it's not otherwise your right would include owning a machine gun to mount on your car like this. Instead of hanging it on the rack on your pick up.

As of today in Texas ( and I presume elsewhere) a new law allowing " open and carry" of guns came into effect....They also have the "stand your ground law" ... I am waiting for the first case of a bar room brawl resutling in death where the perp will defend himslef " he had a gun and I was afraid and thus stood my ground"

Stupid? Of course, but hey its America...

HeadPimp · 01-02-2016, 08:42 AM

Time to jump on my soap box.

There is a homicide issue in this country but guns are not the cause, they are the tools. The numbers show that gun control laws don't change what criminals do with firearms.

An August 2013 CDC report looked at rates for gun homicides in the 50 most populous metropolitan areas. It found that for 2009-2010, the top gun murder rate areas were, in order: New Orleans, Memphis, Detroit, Birmingham, St. Louis, Baltimore, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Philadelphia and Chicago.
Six of those cities are in states with poor scores for their gun laws, while the other four get a â??Câ? or better. Chicago, which placed last in the top 10, had a ban on handguns at the time. Thereâ??s no discernible pattern among those cities, nor clear or convincing evidence in these statistics that shows more gun laws lead to more or less gun crime.

What we need to address is the underlying social issues that are fueling violence, predominantly in those cities.

Rochard · 01-02-2016, 09:01 AM

Firearms are a massive problem in the United States. Every day there are firearm deaths, to the point where it barely makes the local news. The other night a man in California shot and killed four people over a fucking washing machine:
Washing Machine Dispute Led to Quadruple Homicide: Officials - NBC News

More locally, in Stockton California a gun owner thought it was okay to shoot up in the air in celebration and.... The bullet came down into a police car and hit a freaking police officer in the leg.

We have the 2nd amendment which says we have the right to own firearms, but a large percent of the population just isn't mature enough to own firearms. If you are dumb enough to shoot and kill four people over an argument over a fucking washing machine you should have never been allowed to own a firearm in the first place.

Barry-xlovecam · 01-02-2016, 09:09 AM

Hate to break it to you;

There will be no ''ban of 'gun' ownership."
There will just be restrictions placed on sales at gunshows to require the same background checks of persons buying firearms at the registered location of federally licensed gun dealers (ATF Regulated Sales).

This administrative law proposal is just for widening the background check/registration process to gunshows.

theking · 01-02-2016, 11:49 AM

Just as clueless as ever and forever will be. The simple answer is NO and he is not going to try to do that anyhow. In addition whatever he does will more than likely be knocked down by the Supreme Court...as they have ruled every time the issue is before them...it is a constitutional right to buy and own guns. One can even legally own machine guns with the proper license. The only way to stop it is by constitutional admendment and that is not going to happen.

Isn't this an action that the President is taking in response to the mass shootings? At least that's what he says.

Reality Check: None of the proposals he is making would have had any effect whatsoever on Sandy Hook, San Bernadino, or any of the other shootings.

"3 percent of criminals who use guns get them legally."

Source: http://www.politifact.com/punditfact...crimes-commit/

How is this possible? You mean to tell me that criminals don't follow the law?

If that's the case, all the laws in the world aren't really going to stop a criminal who wants to use a gun. The laws would only be a hindrance to law-abiding citizens. You know, the very ones who would use their guns to defend innocent people in a mass shooting, while waiting precious minutes for the cops to arrive?

So are gun laws, in effect, doing nothing but aiding and abetting criminals? And turning law-abiding citizens into sitting ducks?

It's just because we care, that's all. Seeing mass shootings on the news is both scary and and heart breaking at the same time. The most natural reactions might include "How can that happen?" And "will laws tighten in the future?'. It just prompts conversation from everyone, outsides like us included, when things only seem to get worse and not better.

So **********, is what President Obama proposing going to stop the mass shootings?
Is it even going to "help" (whatever that means)?

Will even ONE criminal in the United States be hindered for even one second from getting a gun?

Or will this apply only to LAW ABIDING citizens who aren't going to use their guns for criminal activity anyway?

Just answer those questions. No emotional "feelings" or nonsense. And no lectures.
Just simply answer them "yes" or "no".

And when you're done answering those questions, then ask yourself: "What is the purpose of what Obama is wanting to do? If it doesn't "help" stop criminals, then what is the REAL purpose?"

In a single word, yes. The stricter the gun laws are, the more difficult it will be for criminals or mentally ill people to get their hands on firearms.

I find it strange that some people have this "burning desire" to protect their home with a firearm yet I am forty-seven and have never had the need to "protect my home". Nor have I ever been robbed.

A friend of mine just bought a handgun because he wants to protect himself. Really? There has been one home invasion in the town he lives in in the past five years, the homeowner was armed, and the only one who got shot was... the homeowner. With his own firearm. Why does he live in fear of being robbed?

The odds of him shooting his own wife or someone he knows is greater than him shooting a robber. Wouldn't it be better for him to get a dog and an alarm? (I have both really. And firearms.)

I have a fifteen year old kid, and my kid has lots of friends who sleep over. They stay up late, raid the kitchen at 2am; I can't be arming myself every time something goes bump in the night.

There are more than 8,000 home invasions every day in the U.S. and this does not include the more than 6,000 break-ins and burglaries every day of the year. So your indvidual experience nor mine mean little in the scheme of things. I carry every place I go and I have been robbed before. A teenage kid robbed me at gunpoint with a semi automatic pistol which did not even have a clip in it. I was carrying at the time but decided I did not want to shoot a kid over the amount of money I had in my wallet. So I took my time providing what he wanted...all the while taking mental notes about him. I let him walk and turned the matter over to the police.

Robbie · 01-02-2016, 10:17 PM

The main thing is it shouldn't matter what anyone wants or needs to do.

We aren't children and the govt. has no business disarming us. If I want to collect guns (which I don't) or just have a shotgun (which I do)...it's not anyone's business.

This "free" country has just about had all the "free" squeezed out of it.

It's amazing that when Benjamin Franklin minted the first coins for the United States, they didn't say "In God We Trust" on them. They said "Mind Your Business"
That's a true fact.

Too bad people and govt. feel the need to try and treat adults like we are children.

How about this...When somebody does something wrong, arrest them. Quit trying to figure out how to stop things that can't be stopped. And quit trying to politicize every damn horrible thing that happens.

It's shameful.

I think he wants to attend a few less services for murdered people. I think that if you were the patriarch of a large family, or the president of a large company, that were full of people killing each other, that you would feel some sadness for those people and perhaps some embarrassment. You might also feel frustrated because your attempts to curb the violence is blocked by others in your family or company who have other interests.

If Obama can reduce the killings, fantastic. If there's somehow money in this too, even better. Nothing wrong with that.

Peace and love, Robbie.

**********, just saying stuff doesn't make you correct.

Disarming the citizens is the goal here.

If that is what the majority of people in the US believe should happen, then the constitution should be ammended.

I have no problem with that.
Bureaucrats who are always surroundex by armed guards trying to sneak laws through loopholes of the constitution they swore to uphold? Now that's a big problem.

As for freedom...every new law takes away a little more freedom. It's been done in babysteps. And now we are spyed on, searched at airports like common criminals, searched by cops at traffic stops, shot and killed by cops in many cases, have a media that tries to shape events and does selective reporting, forced to buy a product by the federal govt., and the list goes on.

Perhaps you wouldn't mind all of that IF you lived here. But you don't and I do. I'm not happy with the way things are going in our country. And the latest polls show the vast majority of citizens here feel the same way.

I hope that REAL change is coming and that for the first time in decades it will finally reflect the will of the people and not the will of the ruling class politicians.

I refuse to allow anyone deny me the right to protect myself and loved ones the way I see fit. I will never register nor give up my firearms.

Funniest thing I saw this morning was on CNN.

First they did an "anti-gun" "report" and showed a still picture of Pres. Obama looking like a benevolent father and talked about his "Guns" speech he is about to do. Then the talking heads came on and "discussed" how guns need to be under CONTROL of the govt. for the safety of the people.

THEN...after the commercial, they did an investigative report about the Airport Police at Chicago's airport.

And I swear to God this is what they said: The Airport Police at Chicago are unarmed. They have no guns. And they are TRAINED to "run and hide" in the event of a gunman entering the airport.
The reporter said that the Airport Police needed to be armed because otherwise they couldn't defend themselves if an armed gunman came after them!!!

WTF!?!?!?!

So a citizen of the U.S. doesn't need to be armed to protect himself.

But the Airport Police need to get armed right away because they are defenseless against an armed gunman.

Am I the only one that sees the double standard?

All govt. people must have either armed guards or guns. Normal citizens...not so much.

Here's the link to that story. And the ironic part was that it followed the Anti-Gun report saying that citizens don't need guns to protect themselves:

Simple Yes or No question for you: Do you think the loophole that lets people buy guns at trade shows without background checks should be closed?

No

It has nothing to do with crimes being committed. Criminals don't buy guns at gun shows. They actually have those gun shows at the Casino's here in Vegas (just like the trade shows).

Guarantee you 100% that the last place on Earth a gang member on the southside of Chicago is going to get a gun, is at a gun show surrounded by law enforcement (all the cops go there to check out guns) and tons of rich white people.

This is from the US Burea Of Justice statistics on where guns were purchased for crimes:
"less than 2% bought their firearm at a flea market or gun show"

Notice they included "flea market" in that statistic. A "flea market" is an open air market that happens on the weekends and people show up with stuff to sell.

It is as different from a gun show as McDonalds is to eating at a fine restaurant.

But even with adding flea markets in with gun shows...it's still only 2%

So **********...why do people going to gun shows suddenly have to spend extra money and time (money that will go to...you guessed it, bureaucrats for "registering") to do something that doesn't hurt anyone?

Obama to take unilateral action on US gun violence. There's no denying the US needs to relook at the Second Amendment now we're in a fight against terrorists. Or that the ease of owning a gun has led to many needless deaths. The problem is who rules, elected politicians or big business? And to claim it won't be 100% effective, is stupid. That argument can be applied to drunk driving or bank robbery. __________________ Blowout deal. 880 videos, 2,400 image sets, plus many RAW videos. $500. PM me for a deal. Skype Paulmarkham70

Would reduce the number and power of guns held by people who clearly have no right to own one. You need a license to drive a car, own a dog, sell hot dogs on a corner. So why not owning a gun, with an annual inspection that the owner is still capable? And when people on Terrorist Watch Lists are able to walk into a gun store and buy as many as they can afford. You know the time for change is past. What are the checks made before a person can buy a gun? Mentally ill, criminal, has a history of violence, has a family with issues, suspected terrorists, etc. Or just a driving license? A question this big has to be discussed in greater terms than. Men in fear of the British, French, Indians, Bears, Wolves said everyone had a right to own a musket. so now I can own as many assault weapons as I choose, with huge magazines of armor piercing bullets. Is my right. Well, it's not otherwise your right would include owning a machine gun to mount on your car like this. Instead of hanging it on the rack on your pick up. __________________ Blowout deal. 880 videos, 2,400 image sets, plus many RAW videos. $500. PM me for a deal. Skype Paulmarkham70

Every day there are firearm deaths, to the point where it barely makes the local news. The other night a man in California shot and killed four people over a fucking washing machine: Washing Machine Dispute Led to Quadruple Homicide: Officials - NBC News More locally, in Stockton California a gun owner thought it was okay to shoot up in the air in celebration and.... The bullet came down into a police car and hit a freaking police officer in the leg. We have the 2nd amendment which says we have the right to own firearms, but a large percent of the population just isn't mature enough to own firearms. If you are dumb enough to shoot and kill four people over an argument over a fucking washing machine you should have never been allowed to own a firearm in the first place. __________________ “The choice is no longer between right or left.

There will just be restrictions placed on sales at gunshows to require the same background checks of persons buying firearms at the registered location of federally licensed gun dealers (ATF Regulated Sales). This administrative law proposal is just for widening the background check/registration process to gunshows. President Obama, close the 'gun show loophole' - CNN.com

The simple answer is NO and he is not going to try to do that anyhow. In addition whatever he does will more than likely be knocked down by the Supreme Court...as they have ruled every time the issue is before them...it is a constitutional right to buy and own guns. One can even legally own machine guns with the proper license. The only way to stop it is by constitutional admendment and that is not going to happen. __________________ When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

There is a homicide issue in this country but guns are not the cause, they are the tools. The numbers show that gun control laws don't change what criminals do with firearms. An August 2013 CDC report looked at rates for gun homicides in the 50 most populous metropolitan areas. It found that for 2009-2010, the top gun murder rate areas were, in order: New Orleans, Memphis, Detroit, Birmingham, St. Louis, Baltimore, Jacksonville, Kansas City, Philadelphia and Chicago. Six of those cities are in states with poor scores for their gun laws, while the other four get a â??Câ? or better. Chicago, which placed last in the top 10, had a ban on handguns at the time. Thereâ??s no discernible pattern among those cities, nor clear or convincing evidence in these statistics that shows more gun laws lead to more or less gun crime. What we need to address is the underlying social issues that are fueling violence, predominantly in those cities.

Source: http://www.politifact.com/punditfact...crimes-commit/ How is this possible? You mean to tell me that criminals don't follow the law? If that's the case, all the laws in the world aren't really going to stop a criminal who wants to use a gun. The laws would only be a hindrance to law-abiding citizens. You know, the very ones who would use their guns to defend innocent people in a mass shooting, while waiting precious minutes for the cops to arrive? So are gun laws, in effect, doing nothing but aiding and abetting criminals? And turning law-abiding citizens into sitting ducks? __________________ Keeping you abreast of the teens that get undressed.

Robbie Leaner, Meaner, Faster Industry Role: Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Vegas Posts: 20,958	The main thing is it shouldn't matter what anyone wants or needs to do. We aren't children and the govt. has no business disarming us. If I want to collect guns (which I don't) or just have a shotgun (which I do)...it's not anyone's business. This "free" country has just about had all the "free" squeezed out of it. It's amazing that when Benjamin Franklin minted the first coins for the United States, they didn't say "In God We Trust" on them. They said "Mind Your Business" That's a true fact. Too bad people and govt. feel the need to try and treat adults like we are children. How about this...When somebody does something wrong, arrest them. Quit trying to figure out how to stop things that can't be stopped. And quit trying to politicize every damn horrible thing that happens. It's shameful. __________________ -Robbie ClaudiaMarie.Com
