Obama: "I go shooting all the time"

Of course a shotgun can cause more damage then the guns they want to ban.

I love how they are trying to "protect" hunting like that has ANYTHING to do with the 2nd, its just a bullshit attempt to appeal to the middle of the country voters. I hope they will not fall for such bullshit.

This is an argument I get into quite often. Anti gun nuts like to throw this out there but it shows their ignorance. The 2nd Amendment was never put there to protect hunters because back in those days if you didn't hunt, you didn't eat. If it was to protect hunters then they would have been specific but according to George Mason, you know, the guy who wrote the amendment, it's there to protect us from exactly what Obama is doing.

The idea of Barry waving around a 12 gauge and shouting, "PULL!" is hysterical.

If it is actually true I am betting no one else is allowed to have a loaded shotgun along side him.

I like to throw George's quote at the dumf*cks and watch them foam from the mouth.

Barack Obama: 'I go shooting all the time'

President Barack Obama has claimed that he goes shooting "all the time", while attempting to reassure American gun-owners that he respects their rights to use firearms.

Amid conservative anger over Mr Obama's proposals to ban assault weapons as part of a drastic overhaul of US gun control laws, the president said that he was a keen clay-pigeon shooter.



Asked in a magazine interview whether he had ever fired a gun, Mr Obama said he did so with guests at the president's rural retreat.



"Up at Camp David, we do skeet shooting all the time," he said. "And I have a profound respect for the traditions of hunting that trace back in this country for generations.



"And I think those who dismiss that out of hand make a big mistake".

He counts his drone strike list as shooting.

What I find funnier was, you look at the photo Britebart had, it was the same one I put up.

Then I looked at the photo Bloomberg news put up for their article...



Not exactly the same.
