What real gun control looks like

[jgoose71 0]

For those of you that missed it, Wayne LaPierre or (in a very heart warming and non-confrontational way because we know how loving the left is) “Taliban Wayne” issued a challenge to Obama to have a debate on gun control. For those that watched the town hall the president had on gun control the president chided the “Evil Gun Lobby” for not showing up.

To be honest, I don’t blame them. They would have only been allowed to ask one pre-screened question and then would have been lectured afterwards for as long as the president desired and used as a prop for his misguided policies, just like he did to rape survivor Kimberly Corban. After he first dismissed her concerns about not being able to protect herself he then “mansplained” to the little lady that despite him never owning a gun and her being a concealed and carry permit holder ever since her incident, that in his "expert opinion" her and her family are safer without one. I found it very condescending. Here is the town hall for anyone that missed it:

So anyway, after the town hall, where Obama gave a bunch cherry picked statistics, Wayne LaPierre went to work trying to set the record straight and offer some real ideas for gun control:

And Challenging Obama to a real debate, not just one pre-screened lecture followed by a lecture:

I happen to agree with the NRA on this one. What good are all these new laws when enforcing the old ones are to troublesome? 38 states that don’t fully input into the instant back ground check system, felons not prosecuted for trying to buy a firearm, gun violations just not being prosecuted at all because the government just doesn’t have time for that, yet Obama wants to add more laws that will only effect law abiding gun owners. The stats just don’t show that criminals buy their guns from gun shows or on line. They do straw purchases and black market buys. It's all a smoke screen so when these laws fail to curb violence (statistics say they will) he can demand gun confiscation as the only alternative.

The NRA provides firearms training to millions of people ever year. They made Clinton implement the background check system, and are probably the leading authority on pretty much everything firearms related. Instead of demonizing them, Obama should work with them if he wants to pass meaning full legislation.

I think the real truth is Obama just does not want to put people in jail. He thinks he can make bad people behave by not allowing them access to guns. But the only way to do that is to just get rid of all of them. Just like in the third grade, because Johnny put his gum under the seat, nobody can chew gum. One person screws up we punish all because just punishing the guilty takes work.

To bad this is not the third grade any more and we are talking about the constitution of the United States.
