started this year's version of the "He's gonna take your guns!!1!1" story. They made a fortune off these suckers after the 2008 election because they all thought that (and how stupid do you have to be anyway, to run out and spend a bunch of money on guns if you really believe they're just going to be confiscated soon?). They would know the same damn fools would fall for it again even though the President hasn't made a single move to take anyone's guns from them.
