You can make all the laws you want. Criminals don't ever follows the laws. Many law abiding citizens will simply not comply. Obama just wants something to point at and say "see, I did something." Even if it is useless, idiotic or just plain dumb.

I for one am thrilled to see that he's working hard to expand background checks on people wanting to enter the country.

Story in Atlanta paper today: Atlanta Police have arrested 18 year old Anton Thompson in connection with the murder of Wayne Sapp found shot in the head in his front yard at 2am this past Wednesday....Anton Thompson has a long list of previous arrests and will be charged with murder, aggravated assault, possession of controlled substances, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon...

Now I'm willing to bet the farm that young Anton didn't buy his pistol from Main Street Guns nor did he fill out a 4473 form and his drugs didn't come from Walgreens....This kind of story is in the paper every stinking day and only the names of the shooter and dead guy change....No more laws or expanded background check is ever going to stop this kind of crime....Criminals break the law, that's their job....

Let's start with Obama, like his college transcripts that show he listed himself as a foreign student to both Harvard and Columbia and the Michelle's gynecology records.

Unfortunately for Obama there is a little thing called the United States Constitution standing in Obama's way. There are two things that all of us can and must do to prevent this sort of thing from happening. The first is to sign up a new NRA member. If five million NRA members can slow Obama down then ten million might stop him completely. The second thing that we can and must do is to vote for the most conservative candidates on the ballot.

So sick and tired of liberal politicians passing more and more restrictive feel good gun laws that don't affect the criminal one iota. Fed up with them. These are just promotional advertisements saying, "Look at what I've done to protect you!" and most of the population swallows it. Not worth the paper it's printed on. Like a court order telling someone to stay away from their spouse.

Stop telling yourselves this is about crime prevention.

The only goal of these people is to disarm the political opposition (you and me). Any other interpretation of their actions is pure denial.

Obama is now officially irrelevant.
Nobody cares about what he says or thinks.
His legacy is tainted and poisoned.
A total fail on every level.
Everything he has done.
Will be undone.
Everyone, except him, is looking forward to our next Commander and Chief.

Will not be undone if the next CIC turns out to be a female Democrat. Vote and do your part to make this not happen.

If anybody thinks the next Prez, if a Republican is elected, will make wholesale changes and substantial alterations to what we have now you are clueless. That type of activity has never happened before and won't ever happen. The reason is simple. The Prez that chooses to do that will invariably see everything they did torn apart by their successor and so it goes on and on. Nope not gonna happen.
