Here he goes : Obama: AK-47s belong on battlefield, not streets
Here we go....

[link to www.politico.com]

President Obama touched the third rail of guns here on Wednesday, pivoting off last week’s Colorado movie theater shootings to call for a “consensus around violence reduction" in the country.

With the last public event of a four-day trip that started with a visit to the Aurora, Colo., hospital where almost two dozen victims were brought after the shootings, Obama threw his weight behind measures to strengthen background checks at gun shows and other efforts to keep weapons out of the hands of mentally-ill people.

“These steps shouldn’t be controversial, they should be common sense,” Obama told the National Urban League conference.

“But I also believe that a lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers and not in the hands of crooks. They belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our cities,” he added.



Automatic weapons assault ban here we go.

Not to mention the UN small arms treaty in 2 days.

Show me the six million AKs you got off the street from the people who want to do more with guns than protect their families, and maybe, we'll talk.

Then again, no, not even then, but get those guns anyway.

"Consensus" is UN/wacko lib/commie speak. Anytime you see that term used, you know that what lies ahead is NOT good.

This was so predictable, it's downright ridiculous.

I know this is a step in the wrong direction. As I always say...If guns are outlawed, only outlaws would have them.

However, being in possession of an AK-47 is a little overboard. lol If it stops here (which I highly doubt), then I'm not going to be too concerned.

machine guns/assault rifles shouldn't be in the hands of civilians....

do you know the quality of guns they had when the 2nd amendment was written? They weren't even as good as the pistols we have today.

I'd like to hear a good reason why civilians should be allowed to own assault rifles.

you're an idiot....it starts with AK's, then Shotguns, then Hunting Rifles, then Sidearms, then knifes longer than 6 inches, then who knows what.

Then as we are all utterly defenseless and criminals still have guns, then and only then will you run like the coward you truly are.

You live in the hood and people get robbed a lot by other people with AK-47s who won't give up theirs.

So that civilians are on equal terms with government if it ever becomes tyrannical.

The WHOLE POINT of the right to bear arms is to protect our rights from government.

That is the whole foundation and basis behind being 'free', and having Constitutional rights.

The Constitution 'freed' us from European monarchy.

That is because we were fighting against soldiers with muskets. The playing field is level.

This is no longer true. An AK47 cannot compete.

AK47 against the weapons the military has?? The citizens would lose.

The reason for the 2nd is not for hunting.. wisen up.

If all anyone was allowed to own was a revolver or shotgun.. game over. They own you.
