Obama uses grieving parents to promote gun legislation

[ABikerSailor]

If obama didn't use grieving parents as pawns and tools, how come he never spoke with the Sandy Hook parents that are AGAINST gun control. Doesn't he care what they have to say?

Got a link that shows where a Sandy Hook parent is against gun control?

I would not have said it if there wasn't. I did it again. Assumed others were aware and they aren't at all.

Sandy Hook Parents Don't Think America Needs More Gun Laws

If King Barakula was really interested in the issue, wouldn't he listen to both sides? I know he's not Solomon, but as it appears he's not even Joffrey!

From what the dude said about the law, I'm pretty sure he'd be interested in background checks. He even said something about being cool with a law called James' Law, but he's not in support of new laws. Which one is it? That was from link number 1 and link number 3.

As far as the middle link? It wasn't an actual Sandy Hook parent, it was someone who had a kid going to school in the same district, but it wasn't the one where the kids were shot.

Do you even bother to read your own links? I do......................

This assssinine accusation that the president used these people -

Really shows how little regard the R and rw's have for all the people killed and especially, how little they care about those babies being dismembered, literally shredded by high capacity mag.

The right wants to protect criminals, illegals, terrorists, mentally ill. The right wants them armed to the teeth.

Just despicable.

What a load of shit.

Obama uses grieving parents to promote gun legislation

This is lame, even for brainless R.

Are we all supposed to wait until the R says its okay to for victims and their families to speak out?

Really, there is no excuse for the lies from the NRA, pubs, and 4 D's who line their pockets and vote in favor of killing and violence.

Obama gave them a ride on Air Force One so he can use them as background props during a speech. He's using them...plain and simple.

They ban new purchases, where do they take your guns?

over 1,000 different types of weapons?

reality check?

Where do they take your guns?

They don't. Nobody is taking away anyone's guns

 

[ScienceRocks]

If you're so sure you can win! Why not go the constitutional root and remove the second amendment outright.

Would make more sense just to kill the issue now.

Yanno................I always grew up with the idea that the people were the bosses of the elected officials, and the elected officials were responsible for doing what their constituents wanted.

Elected officials vote in parallel to the sentiments of their constituents - else they lose their jobs.
Clearly, there's a significant number of senators whose constituents don't agree with you.

Kelly Ayotte in New Hampshire voted 'no' with 94% of NH'ers supporting background checks.

live free or die staters are no way voting 94% in favor of gun control. where do you libdicks dig this crap up?

They make up "facts" to fit the narrative.

And if the NRA, the mouthpiece for gun manufacturer profits doesn't want it, we don't get it. Even when over 90% of We, the People want it.

When did the NRA suddenly become the people who control the government?

This is not from a liberal.

The N.R.A. Protection Racket
By RICHARD W. PAINTER


The most blatant protection racket is orchestrated by the National Rifle Association, which is ruthless against candidates who are tempted to stray from its view that all gun regulations are pure evil. Debra Maggart, a Republican leader in the Tennessee House of Representatives, was one of its most recent victims. The N.R.A. spent around $100,000 to defeat her in the primary, because she would not support a bill that would have allowed people to keep guns locked in their cars on private property without the property owner’s consent.

The message to Republicans is clear: “We will help you get elected and protect your seat from Democrats. We will spend millions on ads that make your opponent look worse than the average holdup man robbing a liquor store. In return, we expect you to oppose any laws that regulate guns. These include laws requiring handgun registration, meaningful background checks on purchasers, limiting the right to carry concealed weapons, limiting access to semiautomatic weapons or anything else that would diminish the firepower available to anybody who wants it. And if you don’t comply, we will load our weapons and direct everything in our arsenal at you in the next Republican primary.”

with the over all objective of protecting a constitutional right. We need more organizations like this in the USA.

Your tiny head is filled with propaganda. Adolphus Busch IV is trying to tell you something. Something that only an insider can provide. Only someone who KNOWS what the NRA is REALLY all about.

But you parrots will disregard this information and continue to believe the NRA cares about them.


Adolphus Busch IV resigns NRA membership

ST. LOUIS (KSDK) - One day after the U.S. Senate rejected a bill that would have expanded background checks on guns, one of St. Louis' most powerful and staunch supporters of gun rights ended his lifetime membership with the National Rifle Association (NRA).

"The NRA I see today has undermined the values upon which it was established," wrote Busch, who also dropped his NRA membership. "Your current strategic focus clearly places priority on the needs of gun and ammunition manufacturers while disregarding the opinions of your 4 million individual members."

Busch joined the pro-gun organization in 1975 and has spoken before of his love of hunting. But the NRA has moved in a direction that Busch would not follow. "One only has to look at the makeup of the 75-member board of directors, dominated by manufacturing interests, to confirm my point. The NRA appears to have evolved into the lobby for gun and ammunition manufacturers rather than gun owners," he wrote.
