The Greatest Gun Salesman In America: President Barack Obama
Tue, 21 Feb 2012
American firearm sales and concealed handgun permit applications are at all-time highs since the 2008 election of President Barack Obama. President Obama's perceived hostility towards gun owners has been one of the key factors behind the multi-year financial boom the firearms industry continues to enjoy. In fact, the National Rifle Association (NRA) is actively preparing to work to defeat President Obama's 2012 re-election campaign, according to Wayne LaPierre, the CEO of the NRA, who recently said the following at the 2012 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, D.C.:
Tweet 218 81
"Lip service to gun owners is just part of a massive Obama conspiracy to deceive voters and hide his true intentions to destroy the Second Amendment during his second term. We see the president's strategy crystal clear: Get re-elected and, with no more elections to worry about, get busy dismantling and destroying our firearms' freedom, erase the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights and excise it from the U.S. Constitution...When the sun goes down on election day Barack Obama will have America’s gun owners to thank for his defeat.” - Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the NRA, February 10th, 2012
Ironically, the perceived hostility towards gun owners by President Obama has actually helped the firearms industry tremendously. Since the 2008 election, more Americans than ever before are purchasing firearms & ammunition. This has meant massive increases in sales by firearm & ammunition makers, billions more in federal and state tax collections related to guns & ammo, increased membership in the NRA, and hundreds of thousands of new Americans carrying concealed handguns. Therefore, should the firearms industry support President Obama for a second term or not?

He hasn't - gun laws in the U.S. are as lenient as they've been in many, many years.
hey GINOPHISH, are you planning to brand your arms during Obama's campaign stops in Pennsylvania this summer?
You mean brandish? I'm pretty sure all my guns are branded already, brah!
Are you going to show em off to Obama on a campaign stop?
Hellz yes...before he takes em away!
I'm a 2nd Amendment supporter and a gun owner. However, I'm not delusional and paranoid, what am I doing wrong?
How is obama going to take them away, GINO?
OP is just another paranoid, insecure, Con douchebag.

Yawn.
Yet another non-issue.
You nuts were saying he was coming for your guns before he got elected, he's been in office 3 years and it's just as easy as it ever was to obtain a firearm.

Again, Obama has admitted to working on gun control "under the radar" and he signed a UN treaty which would have sold out our 2nd amendment rights and sovereignty, but I guess if liberals think he isn't working against our gun rights because they're ignorant about it, I should take their word for it. makes sense.

Do you mean the Arms Trade Treaty?
Because if so....they haven't even drafted it yet, let alone signed it.
In fact, I'm fairly certain they haven't even been able to get a final draft of the procedures to structure the drafting and negotiating conference this upcoming July
