The Rifle Association’s ‘True Story’
October 23, 2008
A misleading NRA ad claims Obama voted “to deny citizens the right of self-protection.”

Summary
The National Rifle Association’s misleading attacks on Obama continue. A new ad shows a terrified woman grabbing a gun after an intruder smashes his way into her home. It accuses Obama of voting repeatedly for a measure that would “make you the criminal” in such cases, and voting to “deny citizens the right of self-protection.”

It would be fair to characterize Obama as voting to uphold enforcement of local gun bans, even in cases where the banned weapons were used in self-defense. But the NRA goes too far when it claims that he voted “to deny citizens the right of self-protection” generally. He did no such thing. The vote would have had no effect at all in places that didn’t have local gun bans in the first place.

NRA Targets Obama
September 22, 2008
Updated: September 29, 2008
It falsely claims in mailers and TV ads that Obama plans to ban handguns, hunting ammo and use of a gun for home defense.

The NRA bases this overheated claim on a vote Obama cast on March 24, 2004, in the Illinois state Senate. He was one of 20 who opposed SB 2165. That bill, which passed 38 – 20 and became law, did not make it a crime to use firearms for self-defense, however. Rather, it created a loophole for persons caught violating local gun registration laws.

A bunch of pie in the sky libs elected this guy and all of us are going to end up with the government the libs deserve. Grab your A$$, this is going to be a HeII of a ride.

Source it or it never happened.

Downthumb me all you want douchebags, my assertion is valid – his question is riddled with lies and distortions and I want to see him back his post up,

Oh and I should state for the record – AR-15, AK-47, etc etc etc law-abiding liberal gun owner here that isn’t the least bit worried.

Since you tried to respond, I’ll walk you through it.

1. What he backed (which they knew never would pass but it was a good faith vote) was for a 500% INCREASE in the tax of ammo – or roughly a 50% total tax. You’re wrong.
2. Your quote “President-elect Barack Obama has just stated that he is going to tax ammunition 500% as well as all handguns and semi-automatic weapons. He said he wants to permanantly ban all hanguns, semi-auto’s, and some shotguns” WHERE IS YOUR LINK SHOWING HE ‘JUST SAID’ this? Back it up or back down.
3. “He also wants to do away with the ‘grandfather clause’ and make it illegal to possess any guns purchased before his ban goes into effect. You will have to wait for 30 days to buy a gun. He and Biden are also proposing reinstating a ‘much stronger’ version of the 1994-2004 Clinton gun ban that the Republican Congress let expire in 2004.” WHERE IS YOUR LINK? It doesn’t have to do with his record – you say they propose – link it dude. Or its lies.
4. “tion! Basically they are disarming law abiding citizens, but doing so in small increments. With The Democrats having a fillibuster proof Majority in the Senate and House,” LIE they don’t – they need 60 seats. They have 57.

You make assertion after assertion about ‘what they will do’ yet you provide no material link. ***** his voting record. Last time I checked, Congress writes the bills. The president can’t do anything regarding legislation except perhaps recommend. And Congress would not pass this sort of stupid crap because it would put many businesses out of business – do you think that’s a bright idea given the nature of our economic issues?

So again – where did you ‘hear’ him ‘say’ that he ‘would do’ these things on ‘Jan 20, 2009′? Or are you smoking some weed?

Seriously, link it or your question just stinks of rant, my friend.

I love this stuff! I thought it was over since the election. You have been bamboozled!

I just did a web search JUST for confirmation and found out what I had figured out before I read your question.

Fooled again. There is ZERO ZIp and NONE interest from yhe OBama camp on your silly guns. The last thing he said about it was after the SUPREME COURT ruled that it is OK for communities to enact their own gun control laws. He was OK with that.

POOF! That lets the Federal Government out of your gun ownership “problems”… Obama cannot do anything about it. It is out of his hands and he has not said he was interested in it anyway since 1999 when he made an off-hand comment supporting local Police…Not an issue he is interested in.

Who IS interested in it? Oh, let me take a guess….NRA who gets all of their money and very high wages dependent on your and your gun-sellers donations.

Hahahaha! You got punked! Email me after feb 2009 and if there is an Obama declaration to tax or take your guns I will donate $$$ to the goofy NRA! Really.

google stuff before you twist panties…

and no, i do not believe in gun control

And P.S. I didn’t vote for him so don’t blame me when he screws EVERYTHING up…not just this!
