Obama: Don't stock up on guns

QUOTE
"I believe in common-sense gun safety laws, and I believe in the second amendment," Obama said at a news conference. "Lawful gun owners have nothing to fear. I said that throughout the campaign. I haven't indicated anything different during the transition. I think people can take me at my word."

"We don't dispute because the numbers from the federal system certainly confirm that there is increased activity out there. We just think it's a bit stupid," said Peter Hamm, spokesman for the Brady Campaign against Gun Violence.

"Anyone who thinks they need to rush out and buy a firearm clearly has not been paying attention to how quickly we make progress on this issue. We don't think these are first-time buyers. We think they are people who already have more than enough guns at their homes to protect themselves and are buying more."

Sorry but many gun-owners will not believe Obama as long as his Urban Policy web site says Obama and Biden “also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.”

Obama's promise and the web site statement suggest Obama doesn't have a clue about the AWB and its effect on popular semiautomatic firearms.

He promises not to smoke in the White House and he needs to promise to veto any bill to renew the assault weapons ban.
