I HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING TO THE ACLU IN REGARDS TO YOU PEOPLE TRYING TO BAN CHRISTIANS FROM PRAYER IN THIS COUNTRY. THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED UNDER GOD WE TRUST. NOW YOUR ARRESTING CHRISTIANS FOR PRAYING OVER A MEAL. AND TRYING TO TAKE CHRISTMAS OUT OF THIS COUNTRY. WHAT HAPPENED TO FREEDOM OF RELIGION. WE CHRISTIANS WILL FIGHT YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. THIS IS TRUELY A SPIRITUAL WARFARE THAT WE ARE UNDER ATTACK WITH. NOBODY IS TAKING CHRISTMAS AWAY FROM MY FAMILY AND I WILL SPEAK IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST MY SAVIOR IN MY COUNTRY ANY TIME I WANT. THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST IS COMING BACK SOON. HE WILL JUDGE THE LIVING AND THE DEAD YOU PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE A BIG SUPRISE.

Mr.Obama how many assult weapon are already in the hands of law abiding citizens that use them for hunting and home protection. Shutting down the sales and production of one of the most economic boosting businesses is not a smart move. The laws are already in place -just like your little speech comparing free speach does not mean you can yell “fire” or bomb in a room full of people because you will get thrown in jail. It is no different -american civilians know that we can’t go take our assult weapons and commit a crime with it without getting thrown in jail. Assult weapon account for only 1-2 percent of gun crimes. Let me guess if there where 20 attacks in one day with a baseball bat -you would ban all sales of baseball bats the next day – pull the head out people. I have yet to see or hear of a gun by itself killing people – no it is the stupid people behind the gun that have no right to owning them. If you don’t want the assult weapons getting in the hands of drug cartel -fine ban them -they will find away to do more harm with a hunting rifle -then are you going to ban them aswell. That would take away our constitutional right -2nd ammend. and start a civil war. Just focus on the budget and the Borders and the american citizens with guns will help protect our families and this country -don’t take them out of our hands-you may need us and our assult weapons someday. This is just common sence I thought. You should take a look at how much ammo and assult rifles went up and support it – the funny thing is that people that have no job -no money are going out and stocking up on assult guns and ammo. That should be a good indicator to shut up and leave the guns and second ammendment alone it will take care of itself just like free speech. Thanks for reading concerned arms holder.

O.K. this only took one month or so, and it won’t stop with banning assault weapons. Every inch we give, they will take it a mile and they won’t stop until they have all guns banned. Any excuse will do in order to strip us of our freedom, our liberty and the right to defend ourselves- The Constitution doesnt mean a damn thing to this administration. They even want control of the 2010 census, 40% of your paycheck, and a tax payer funded spending spree worth more than the cost of all wars put together. And they are not through yet. Heres a new Dem slogan for 2009; Thank You the American tax payer, your hard work is appreciated. Now give me- Everything. Even your guns. NOW!

What they want to ban are NOT “Assault Weapons”, let’s get this right here and now. Assault Weapons are capabable of multiple modes of fire or full auto without further modification, this is THE definition of Assault Weapon.

Next, Assault Weapons would NOT be banned under any further gun control laws since they already ARE regulated (heavily) under the 1934 NFA (National Firearms Act) which regulates, keeps serial numbers, and taxes these weapons. And since I am tired of it, not ONE SINGLE legally purchased fully automatice firearm has been used in a crime since 1934. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

Next, having serverd in the US military and having much more experience and expertise than most law enforcement, why would I not be able to own a semi-automatic (one round discharges with EACH pull of the trigger) version of the very weapons I was trained by the US military to protect and defend this country?

The intent of the second amendmant is NOT to ensure I can hunt. It is there to protect me, my family, my property, and if necessary YOU from criminals at the minimum and a corrupt government at the worst. Why should I not be able to own the very same weapons that the government agents use on a daily basis?

Most importantly, what part of “shall not be infringed” do we not understand? This amendmant is the ONLY one written so clearly that it blows the mind that people cannot understand that it is to ensure that EVERY person that wants to defend themselves is able to do so at anytime without government approval.

I don’t care if you agree or believe that I should be able to own one of these firearms. It’s not up to you or anyone else to say what I can or cannot own. I feel it is the same as me telling you what religion to believe in, what car to drive, and where you have to live. Nobodoy has the right to govern your life as such.

Lay off the laws, strike ALL (close to) 21,000 gun control laws that are NOT enforced. Come down on the criminal, or let the law abiding citizen defend themselves when needed and call 911 to pick up the body when their done.

With everything going on in the US they are worried about assault rifles? How about giving people jobs! Show me some statistics before you ban them. How many assault rifles were used in crimes?

Read the Constitution…it exists for the protection of the people against the government. If the Secret Service can have assault rifles to protect the President than citizens can have them too. If the military and police have assault weapons than citizens can have them too!

This is another assault on our privacy and rights. Some of us have had assault rifles for decades and never ever got into any trouble with it. Why don’t you pass legislation that requires fingerprinting and background checks for assault rifles and handguns on a federal level. That way you can easily track when they end up across the border. If every state had strict enforcement it would not be a problem!

Gosh people in Washington are so stupid! This country is going down hill fast and you want to take away the right for Americans to protect themselves? Don’t you guys have something better to do like fight mortgage fraud, bank fraud and securities fraud?

Oh, and to all those people who think it cant happen…..didnt our financial system almost melt down at the end of last year?
2012 here we come. Time to stock up.
