How Many Gun Laws Did Obama Sign?

Gun Laws Signed By Obama - How Many There Are
How Many Gun Laws Did Obama Sign?

… “List and Explanation of Gun Control Bills …”


“Barack Obama has been called the "most anti-gun president in American history." Fears that Obama would try to ban guns fueled record sales of weapons during his presidency. But how many gun laws did Obama sign? And did any of them actually place restrictions on gun owners?..............


…………During his first term Obama didn't call for any major new restriction on guns or gun owners. Instead he urged authorities to enforce the state and federal laws already on the books.
In fact, Obama signed only two major laws that address how guns are carried in America, and both actually expand the rights of gun owners………….

In fact, Obama signed only two major laws that address how guns are carried in America, and both actually expand the rights of gun owners.

One of the laws allows gun owners to carry weapons in national parks; that law took effect in February 2012 and replaced President Ronald Reagan's policy of required guns be locked in glove compartments of trunks of car that enter national parks.


Another gun law signed by Obama allows Amtrak passengers to carry guns in checked baggage, a move that reversed a measure put in place after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001……………

Now who was it that warned yall about the Obama plan to confiscate all guns? He’s coming for your guns they said……….

And warned all gun owners "If Barack Obama wins a second term in office, our Second Amendment freedom will not survive. Obama will never have to face the voters again, and will therefore be unleashed to push the most extreme elements of his gun-ban agenda to every corner of America."

I agree that, at least in my state, the guns laws have relaxed during Obama's terms in office. All that nutter spew is just that. The facts on the ground, at least in my neck of the woods, show that Obama was no impedance to my freedom and right to bear arms in any way.

It is important to advance the mis-information that "Big Brother is coming for your guns," to fan the flames of the already paranoid masses (that tend to go overboard in their zeal for weapons,) to advance their industry profits. The NRA, being their lobby, is the main propagandist in that endeavor.

I just ignore it myself. I'm not one to let somebody piss on my head and convince me it's raining. I love my guns but I recognize the facts on the ground.

But, one thing I have learned from my many gun-nutter friends. "Nutter's gonna nut." Perhaps a bit gullible and paranoid, but they're sure a lot more fun than my tofu and kelp buddie's. Bless their hearts.
 
First off I and the President has never mentioned or for that matter inferred to Australia or UK...........Nor have I SAID/SUGGESTED/INFERRED/SUPPORT the idea/action of a government seizing or making guns illegal to own........BECAUSE I DON'T...........I BELIEVE AND SUPPORT THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE SCOTUS AFFIRNATION OF GUN OWNERSHIP........

Ao to call me a liar for something I never said is offensive and a LIE............You need to apologize if man enough........

You going to qualify what you are babbling about or not? I would apologise but it seems you are not man enough to be specific. Nor have you shown
"whatever" not to be a lie. Kinda dumb not doing that would you not say.

And what/who you are ................ suggest the vague possibility you may be............d

It is not possible to respond to babbling incoherency. Do take the time like all other sensible people and explain what you are on about.

It is common cause that both Australia and UK confiscated guns. Wishing for similar laws is defacto support for confiscation. Do you have a problem with that?

As for what or who I am it is irrelevant and you should know that. I assume it is another of your failings as is the causality of crime by guns.

Go take a hike friend...............

I may well do the weather is fine for that.

I'm certain the officials looked very hard for some meaningless changes that in fact do very little. Creating the opportunity to propagandise this window dressing as some marvellous generosity.




There is absolutely no argument Obama is a gun grabber and wanted to do far more than he had the opportunity to do. The very fact he was instrumental is pushing back ground checks which he know from past failure and GOVERNMENT research was a complete failure. His many references to other countries he would have liked to emulate say it all.

Do I need to supply a link to his claims or are you aware of them? If you are why are you posting this crap

If you have some factual data (not an opinion piece from some "Freedom Warrior's" or NewsMax propaganda site,) that shows that Obama signed any legislation or regulation that impeded on my right to bear arms, I would be interested in seeing it. As I said earlier, my observations, have been just the opposite. Gun laws, from what I have seen, are less strict now than they were before he took office.

I'm not really interested in any political stumping that Obama, or any other politician for that matter, spews from the stump regarding the right to bear arms, as they play to their particular crowd. I would like to see some nuts and bolts, tangible laws or regulations, directly related to the President, that has impeded upon our rights to bear arms. I'm not saying there aren't any. Just saying I would like to read about them. In full context, legal documentation. Inquiring minds want to know.

Anyone with a few functional brain cells can figure that if guns do not cause crime there is absolutely no point in controlling guns to impact crime.

To justify your support of gun control all you have to do is respond with that proof there is a causal relationship between levels of firearm ownership and crime.

If you cannot will you show that you are a responsible thinking person capable of rational thought and change you mind on your support of gun control?

The ball is in your court.

The ball is in my court? Wut?????

My support for gun control???

I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you have me confused with someone else. (I own a small arsenal.) Although, I generally make it a practice not to assume. As you just did.

My point is that, even though I love my guns and my nutter friends, I don't buy in to all that "Big Brother Coming For Your Guns" propaganda like some of people do.

I realize that 1/2 of the population is below the median intelligence level. It surprises me none that so many people let other people piss on their head and convince them it's raining. I am simply stating that I am not one of those people.
 
It matters not...............in spite of the record yall are going to believe the cramp[ the NRA feeds ya.......

BTW

Did you come to the realization of how yall have been lied to by the NRA?

Don't you feel foolish and taken advantage of?

I took your direct citations, and you turn around and claim NRA propaganda? Yeah, you got nothin' here. You argue like a liberal.
 
"All hat............No cattle."

Take your hate and anger somewhere else

What hate? Pointing that someone is not pro-2nd amendment a form of hate?

Sure ignore what anti-2nd amendment politicians say. I bet people were saying the same thing you did before Clinton signed the Brady bill into law. They were probably saying the same thing you did before many states banned semi-automatic weapons deemed to be assault weapons and standard capacity magazines deemed to be high capacity magazines.

how do you think Kagan, Quotamayor and maybe his current nominee would have voted on Heller? you want to pretend that people are overly hysterical about Obama but we who really follow this issue know what he is doing

so tell us Captain-how do you think those justices Obama put on the court are going to vote the next time a major gun issue comes before them?

I doubt he would answer that question.

he's really not anti gun-just anti GOP. but the fact is, there is a real reticence from those on the left to give us straight answers when it comes to gun issues
 
And ya got to scare the hell out of a whole lot of folks to keep the money rolling to pay those over the top salaries and great job perks.........

And as they say............and those poor ole gun-owning suckers buy all the BS as if it was a soon to be depleted commodity ..............

Hmmm unfounded? You should look up Obama's gun record when he was in Chicago
In March 2004, the Illinois Senate passed Senate Bill 2165, a law introduced in response to DeMar's case, with provisions designed to assert a right of citizens to protect themselves against home invasions, such that self-defense requirements would be viewed to take precedence over local ordinances against handgun possession. The measure passed the Illinois Senate by a vote of 38-20. Barack Obama was one of the 20 state senators voting against the measure

Obama was being misleading when he denied that his handwriting had been on a document endorsing a state ban on the sale and possession of handguns in Illinois. Obama responded, “No, my writing wasn’t on that particular questionnaire. As I said, I have never favored an all-out ban on handguns.”
Actually, Obama’s writing was on the 1996 document, which was filed when Obama was running for the Illinois state Senate. A Chicago nonprofit, Independent Voters of Illinois, had this question, and Obama took hard line:

35. Do you support state legislation to:
a. ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes.
b. ban assault weapons? Yes.
c. mandatory waiting periods and background checks? Yes
.

OBAMA: Let’s be honest. Mr. Keyes does not believe in common gun control measures like the assault weapons bill. Mr. Keyes does not believe in any limits from what I can tell with respect to the possession of guns, including assault weapons that have only one purpose, to kill people. I think it is a scandal that this president did not authorize a renewal of the assault weapons ban.

Suckers? Hardly. The only suckers are the ones that think leopards change their spots.

just to point out.. that the only reason that Obama has changed his stance on guns and not been dramatically anti gun on legislation is because of the political fall out that would ensue. and that's because of watchdog groups like the NRA. Its the NRA that protects your freedom when it comes to guns.

Obama stance on guns was much more hardline when it was politically expedient. Turtledude is right on that. If it was politically expedient... Obama would take away every one of your firearms without a backward glance.

Suckers? Hardly. The only suckers are the ones that think leopards change their spots.

not only did the turd in chief appoint two anti gun Supreme court justices, he has praised England and Australian gun restrictions as "sensible. He supported the Clinton gun ban, wanted it expanded and re=enacted. He's a hard core hater of the second amendment pure and simple

They are going to do what the constitution and precedent law dictates. I guess. Hell, I ain't no lawyer. But I do pretend my target silhouettes are.

I get it that when Obama is out schmoozing the tofu and sushi crowd he likes to whine about how people go about getting their guns. Play the crowd. And Trump is gonna build a wall around America and make the Mexicans pay for it. I get it that the rhetoric does fly. It's been like that for as long as I remember. I am not interested in all that hot air.

The FACTS I have observed is that gun laws in my world are more relaxed today than when Obama took office. I know this to be true. I don't buy the paranoia hype.

BTW..... I'm loving my new .40. I have put about 200 rounds through it and only got my thumb once. (Once is enough.) How's things with you TD?

non answer. precedent is that the second amendment is an individual right. but four turds in McDonald voted against that precedent including Sotamayor

are you suffering a conflict? you like guns but you want to defend your vote for Obama or your vote for Hillary in a few months?

You don't think Cruz or Kasich has a chance of getting the nod if the convention is brokered? I voted for Kasich in our primary. I know the numbers aren't looking that good for him and that just boggles my brain. He is the best candidate running, by far. I don't understand why most people do not realize that. Mass insanity?

Well if you think you really know what the real deal is because stranger in a gun store told you it was that way......and don't give two toots about the facts..........How could you ever be wrong?


BTW

Let's get some thing strait .......I don't post crap......It would be more accurate to say.........you do not like news on guns which go counter to what you think is true..........and it boggles your brain when your core beliefs are challenged...........its like a pin ball machine.......or your computer locks up with the blue screen of death..........

Ya see I know all about that feeling because some time ago I was a "true believer" and when some told me the truth "my circuits would fry and my eyes would glaze over............but I go cured....... So I know how it is for ya friend...........there is a fair chance you can recover

I am still asking you to respond to my question. and you keep avoiding it
 
I expressed my opinion about your OP. Again...if you dispute what I said, tell me what you dispute and why. Otherwise, don't bother me.

GOT IT? :roll:


Gracious way of exiting........ stage right:lamo
 
I am still asking you to respond to my question. and you keep avoiding it

I have some questions for you TD and I apologize in advance for veering off topic.

1. When breaking in a new handgun, how many rounds do you run through it before you take it to the gunsmith (or, in your case, probably do it yourself,) for a check-up for any tweaking? (The reason I ask is that beside my lifetime mfg. warranty I have a "bumper-to-bumper, no questions asked, lifetime service warranty to cover all bases. The "guy at the gun counter," who seemed to know his stuff, told me to break it in and then bring it back for a check-up. My question is, when is it "broke in?"

2. A S&W tutorial video on feild dressing and cleaning tha M&P Sheld .40, actually washed the gun in Dawn dishwashing, soap, rinse and blown with compressed air. (besides the usual solvent application and bore snake cleaning.) That sounds freaky to me. I am not comfortable with that. I get it that the piece is made out of space age material but WTF? Would you clean the oils from a gun this way?

Oh, whoopee- dee................ I have come across a class of people who are never wrong ...................

and if you argue too much...........


they will form a posse and run you down......
