Mr Obama comes off as a smart man..But he is so far off when it comes to guns it's unreal. He wants to permanently reinstate the assault weapon ban (bad idea) when like the other poster noted rifles were used in crimes a whole 4 times in Illinois.I thought the Democrats understood gun control was a losing issue and would lay off this time around (guess not).The guns aren't the reason for the violence plaguing large cities around the country.It's the rampant poverty,illicit drug trade and lack of parental influence that are far bigger reasons.
I will say as a law abiding gun owner..I'm so tired of politicians on both sides of the aisle treating law abiding citizens like criminals.We have over 20,000 laws on the books right now concerning guns.We just need to enforce those better instead of making new ones.
