I do fear that President Obama might act against firearms in his second term, but I am tending to doubt it now that it has been removed from the Democratic party platform.

I was pretty much disgusted with President Obama after he signed the NDAA but after his speech on Tuesday I am at least inspired by what he said. I wish he had not waited so long to say it, though.
