Letter to the Editor

Obama on guns; straight from NRA

Tuesday, July 10, 2012

To the Editor,

After reading the Bill Cox DAR letter to the editor about our president, I decided I had better get out my information about how he stands on our right to bear arms. The one thru ten shocking bits of information is straight from the National Rifle Assoc., and they tell it like it is.

1. Obama supported a shutdown of all gun stores within five miles of a school or park-a move that would have closed 99 percent of gun stores nationwide.

2. Obama supported Ted Kennedy's ammo ban to outlaw all deer-hunting ammunition.

3. Obama green-lighted discussions that would lead to a U. N. gun ban treaty, signaling the U. N. that America would support steps toward global civilian disarmament.

4. Obama is one vote away from a Supreme Court gun-ban majority to rubber-stamp gun control laws and overturn the Second Amendment.

5. Obama's regulatory "czar," Cass Sunstein, wants to ban hunting and says animals should be represented in court.

6. Obama is trying to slash funding for the Armed Pilots Program designed to prevent terror attacks.

7. Obama voted to allow reckless lawsuits designed to bankrupt American gun makers.

8. Obama's administration illegally smuggled guns to Mexican drug lords, then imposed illegal gun registration in four states, blaming gun owners for his administration's insane policy.

9. Obama' Attorney General Eric Holder said we need to "really brainwash people" against guns.

10. Obama admits he's coming for our guns, telling Sarah Brady, "We are working on [gun control], but under the radar."

I am 77 years old. I fought in the Korean War and the Vietnam War. I have lived with guns all my life and still hunt with them.

I feel sorry for Americans that may not have that freedom if they don't wake up.
