Obama's Speech Tonight

[Brown]

He might just go for broke and use Executive order and let the courts try and figure it out. Which of course will take a while but in the meantime he will get his ban.

 

[Never A Victim]

Link?

I've NEVER been a "Bammer's gonna grab our guns!" type, but tonight he said gun control was coming in every way possible without actually saying the words.

As tragic as this event was, emotional "We have to do SOMETHING" reactionary legislation won't serve to reduce the risk of mass shootings in any meaningful way...but will make things substantially more difficult & restrictive for the 99.999% of gun owners that are law-abiding.

 

[Dentoro]

This President had a chance to simply comfort the victims families and help heal families, a community a nation..........

instead he starts to campaign for more gun control...


What a opportunist... shame on him.

First let me say I do believe he and others will attempt to play on the emotions of the tragedy to pass a bunch of ineffective gun control measures.
I do also believe that there was a lot of good in his speech. I hope this was not lost on people. It spoke of healing for the families and hope that faith will help sooth their pain. Maybe it's just the fact, that when my daughter was killed, faith was the only thing that kept me going.
God bless the children.

I would LOL, but it's not funny. Gun control was all over the memorial speech.

Better petition the State too.

20 - 30 round magazines are "normal capacity" for AR's, FALs, etc.. anything less should be referred to as "restricted capacity". I supposed you might call a 100 round drum high capacity but eveyone one I know that had one has problems with thier reliability.

I'm not disagreeing with you but there was also another mssg in there. I'm just hoping people weren't so close minded to see it.

You mean those guns designed for wars. Normal has left the building.

Great speech for the moment and I can't even stand the guy.

I was just surprised he wasn't struck by lightning. A message was there but glossed over. Americans need to get back to families and not the me,me,me stuff.

 

[matthewquigley]

I thought the speech was the wind up...the pitch will come in the next few weeks. I seriously hope that cooler heads will prevail. BTW...we've all pretty much been threatened...the left has called for all NRA members to be murdered.

Bob

He id ask if we have to sit by and let this happen or if we should do something about it. If all those administrators, teachers, parents and volunteers that fought back were armed they'd have won long before this ever reached such a body count and quite possibly before a single child was hurt. Making it so people can't defend themselves against those ignoring the laws is forcing them to stand by and watch tragedies like this happen again and again.

 

[andrew]

the left has called for all NRA members to be murdered.

Did I miss something?

 

[sadaed]

Didn't get to hear the speech, but knew when I watched the TV friday that this would be the last straw and regulations would be right around the corner. So sorry for the kids and families affected by this tragedy and sad for responsible gun owners who will now feel the effects.

The AR platform was designed for war. So was the AK.

So was just about every firearm ever made.
