Faced with a clamor in his party for stricter gun control in the wake of the Colorado movie-theater massacre, President Obama said Wednesday night he would “leave no stone unturned” in seeking new measures to reduce violence nationwide, including more restrictive background checks on gun purchases.
More than the law already allows??
“A lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals,” Mr. Obama said at the annual National Urban League convention in New Orleans. “They belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our cities.”
First of all, considering the killer in Aurora, CO did not possess an AK-47, what prompted the president to use that as an example?
Then I wonder just where President Obama gets his information as to what gun owners think?
Now, check this out.
The president blamed “politics and lobbying” for defeating gun-control measures when outcries arise after mass shootings in the U.S.
Here he is crying about is the resistance of the American people to his agenda.
Now get this.
But the White House has been saying since the shooting last week that Mr. Obama has no plans to seek new gun legislation.

“We’ve been able to take some actions on our own, recognizing that it’s not always easy to get things through Congress these days,”
Mr. President, it's suppose to be difficult to get things through Congress as that was the idea of our Founding Fathers.
