Obama and guns
G.R. Anderson - Box 1049, Townsend - 05/11/08
I read the “Your Turn” article (April 29) by Steve Doherty, Jim Posewitz, Land Tawney and Kendall VanDyk on “Obama Backs Gun Rights.” What a complete sack of garbage that is!
Those guys wrote that Obama realizes Montana gun laws should not be the same as those in Chicago. I always thought we were the United States and the Second Amendment applied to every American citizen having the right to keep and bear arms. If this Obama gets elected president, is he ging to keep gun control in Illinois and not in Montana? It does not make sense to me as he keeps preaching he is a uniter, not a divider.
Since his short time in the Senate, he has not supported any gun-rights bill but has approved the D.C. gun ban, which does not allow one to even have a handgun in one’s own home! The NRA rates him as a F minus so gun owners beware when you go to the polls. We need a president that honors the Constitution, not a dictator. There is only one good gun control and that is holding it firmly in your hand.

" I rated this story as only slightly interesting as we already know what socialists think of privately owned weapons.
Katrina gun grabs, DC's assault on the 2ndA(soon to be overturned), the confusion that the Constitution does not apply equally across the nation to all Americans.The thought that libs have that the 2ndA is about hunting or collecting or sport shooting, when nothing could be farther from the truth. Its all about resistance to a gov that has become tyrannical, like a gov that works from the premise that the Constitution is not equally applied to all of its citizens.
I think we should form our own party! 30+ million gun owners can not be wrong. "

" Hmmm... that's just what we need in this country. More guns. More guns, so that more children can find them stashed away in Daddy's nightstand and lost their lives. More guns so that people can continue to get carjacked in big cities. More guns so that students can go to school wondering if they will face an armed peer around the next corner.
Barack Obama supports sportsmen. He supports the comradery that gun-related sports builds and the lessons of conservation that those sports teach our children. He doesn't want guns to get in the wrong hands... and neither do I. So I hope when people go to the pulls they consider a President who, in every way, cares about our children and their futures!!! "

Here's all you need to know about McCommie:

All gun control is propaganda designed to condition the sheeple to accept further control until the final objective, civilian disarmament, is achieved. Thus all gun control is an act of war.

We must recognize cancer of Liberalism for the evil it is and treat it as such or we will end up like England:
