define: against guns. Do you mean, against all forms of guns owned by anybody?

 

Only a fool would claim that's what Obama wants. I've actually never even met anybody who wanted that.

 

Of course, that doesn't jive with the republican's fear/uncertainty/doubt campaigns. It's important they scare the base into believing Obama is coming to take their guns and force their children to become gay. That way they can make sure everybody is still nice and divided.

Divide and conquer is the oldest trick in the book. It works great!

 

Oh, yes, libtards are such uniters!

 

My statement is not one side or the other. Both parties are very good at this.

 

You'll never get a partisan like 5K to admit that political parties maliciously prey on the fears of their base. People like this are habituated into mindlessly defending their party or party representative without forethought; it's like a reflex. :(

I'm just balancing the loud-mouthed libtard majority on this board, Rob :wave:

FactCheck: Yes, Obama endorsed Illinois handgun ban

Obama was being misleading when he denied that his handwriting had been on a document endorsing a state ban on the sale and possession of handguns in Illinois. Obama responded, “No, my writing wasn’t on that particular questionnaire. As I said, I have never favored an all-out ban on handguns.”

 

Actually, Obama’s writing was on the 1996 document, which was filed when Obama was running for the Illinois state Senate. A Chicago nonprofit, Independent Voters of Illinois, had this question, and Obama took hard line:

 

35. Do you support state legislation to:

a. ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes.

b. ban assault weapons? Yes.

c. mandatory waiting periods and background checks? Yes.

From the site you just referenced:

 

"Barack Obama on Gun Control

 

Democratic nomine for President; Junior Senator (IL)"

 

What's a 'nomine'?

 

The poster also failed to mention that the questionnaire, if it's real at all, is supposedly from 16 years ago.

 

I'd definitely question anything from this site, much less it's parrots.

 

Fair and Balanced.
