Redman Report post Posted February 10, 2012 Just got done reading the following article and IN MY opinion the NRA is beating the war drums a little to hard. http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/inside-politics/2012/feb/10/nra-official-obama-wants-outlaw-guns-2nd-term/ I should have done some research myself, but I think Pres. Obama has been the NRA's best friend since being elected. I would imagine the membership has gone way up.... and remember the post election frenzy on ammo and weapons...the NRA had to benefit I have often said I missed out on a few bubbles... pagers...cell phones...internet...smart phones... and guns / ammo after Obama was elected... maybe I should look a head to next year... Don"t get me wrong, I know the NRA does A LOT of good, but I am only speaking on this article. p.s. I am a lifetime NRA member also.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loco4coues Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Obama's first term = do as much as he could get away with, without sacrificing his chances to get re-elected Obamas 2nd term (if we allow it) = do whatever he wants because he won't have to worry about being re-elected. If he gets relected, make no mistake, things are going to get A LOT worse than his first go around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

archerycrazy Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Shortly after Obama took office, multiple democratic legislators sent a letter to him advising that he leave the Second Amendment alone. "Fast and Furious" is just ground work for his next term when all bets are off. He would not be concerned about reelection. We need to start now to ensure that every gun owner/enthusiast gets to the polls next November. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he gets relected, make no mistake, things are going to get A LOT worse than his first go around. The President is part of the Executive Branch in the US Government that can only sign laws put forth by the Legislative Branch (or veto)...the President does have the power to enact an Executive order...BUT ABOLISHING THE SECOND AMENDMENT IS NOT GONNA HAPPEN with an executive order....while Pres. Obama may not worry about being elected again....the Legislative Branch does... That article clearly is pardoning to those that dislike Pres. Obama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coach Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Under any previous Presidency, Obama would have been impeached for overtly cicumventing the Constitution, that he swore an oath to protect, over and over and over. Problem is, America is getting dumber by the day and we just let this butt-clown do whatever he wants. And mark my words, we'll give him 4 more years with absolute power and absolutely nothing to lose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cw4192 Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Redman, obama is a muslim, he allowed the guns to go to mexico in the fast and furious ordeal to get to the point of this post. What has this president done for the USA? The economy has sucked, the jobs have sucked, and now 10 months before election the stock market is rising the jobs are up and the handout money for housing is up all he is doing is trying to put a quick fix for the next 10 months and then he will lay the boom down. he has pulled our troops from the middle east against advise not to. he has taken care of his pedople from chicago by handing them big time control of major positions within the federal gov't against congress. he will only do more damage if re-elected. he is a muslim. he hate's AMERICA. he has cost tax payers more money than any other president for security and self spending. he is a JOKE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shawn Report post Posted February 11, 2012 We all need to be worried big time if he gets a 2nd term! He gets a chance to pick another judge for the supreme court and its bad news for us! He is a joke! Can't stand to look at him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coues7 Report post Posted February 11, 2012 If anyone for one second believes the Pres. Obama, given a 2nd term, wouldn't attempt, even under an executive order anything that wouldn't damage the 2nd Amendment is crazy. He is no friend of this our country as established by our founding fathers. I don't think anyone give Obama enough credit for what he COULD do....the weak and needy are overtaking our country.....he has lots of backing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Obama and his band of cronies, are highly skilled at "smoke and mirrors". He is not a President we can turn our back on. Everything he is doing now and in the next 9 months, will haunt this country for the next decade, if not longer. Imagine what he can do with another term. It makes my skin crawl that this country elected the POS. Who is to say that the NRA is not trying to scare everyone so that we all rush to join up, and send in those donation checks.? The NRA is the single most valuable voice for us and our gun rights. But I got really tired of all the NRA envelopes in my mail box asking for money. It got old in a hurry!

Redman Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Wow, I guess I am off base thinking that no President can by him or herself abolish the Second Amendment. No matter what your views are of Pres. Obama,I think he is going to have a second term. I just don't see him losing the election against Romeny. p.s.... I did not and will not vote for Pres. Obama, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
krp Report post Posted February 11, 2012 I'm not a fan of fear mongering and it's as old as religion, statistically it gets results from those that are not able to use rational thought on an issue... more of a donation producer than a vote producer, which is fine I suppose. Redman is right in that the President can't abolish the 2nd amendment. We need to win the Senate this election cycle. Our biggest danger we face with another Obama administration is the Supreme court appointees, a liberal court can do extensive damage to our 2A rights and some of our Conservative judges are hanging on as it is hoping for a GOP presidency so they can retire... it's 5 to 4 now, we'll lose the supreme court if Obama is reelected.

.270 Report post Posted February 12, 2012 Fear mongers or not, if obama gets 4 more, he will do serious harm to all liberty and freedom. He has surrounded himself with people that are anti freedom. He can say what he wants and weak people will believe it, but he wants your freedom. Guns are just a part of it. He cant remove an amendment, but with liberal judges, he can severely limit them. And with a weak minded electorate he can do a lot of bad. Folks with big investment in GM didn't think he could take their stock and give it to the uaw either, but he did. Lark.
