If/when he becomes president you think he or Congress will push for a ban on CCW laws?

25. I believe, that is hugh manatee.

[mrih]

4. NO

THAT IS BOOGEYMAN RHETORIC.

The DEMOCRAT who owns the firing range in my town would be appalled by that comment.

[OhioChick]

5. I don't buy that.

Enjoy your stay.

19. Did you listen to the audio?

[medeak]

8. I'm pro gun but get this shit out of here today, huh?

way more important things going on. oh you are just a troll - well enjoy your pizza and get ready to stfu and get over it OK?

9. Bush took our kids away and Killed them! And you aren't scared!

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

10. Yes, he does, but it's more nuanced than that.

What he wants is to ban concealed carry of your dick. When I say "your" I do not mean the collective "your". I mean that Obama knows all about you and when he is sworn in, he has a secret plan to issue an executive order that will force you, and only you, to spend the rest of your life walking around with your dreary little vienna sausage hanging out of the crotchless pants you will be forced to wear by his armies of storm troopers.

Do enjoy your stay.

[AtheistCrusader]

11. Oh man...

I gotta stop reading this forum at work.

That was amazing

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

13. I guess I still got chops...

Even when in pain and stuffed like a thanksgiving turkey with Percocet.

It ain't easy hanging onto the elements of writing style that made you a legend in your own lunchtime, under conditions like these, lemme tell ya'.

28. I find it helps

Gum abscess and codeine myself this week. Helps to focus the mind. ;)

15. hahahhaaha

hey rumor has it you had some kind of medical prob - hope you are doing better! (and it looks like you are by that post)

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

16. Yup.

Had some Indian doctor's hands up in me guts. I needed it, but I don't recommend the experience for a moment. Goddamned intestinal design flaws that lay there ticking like an itty-bitty time bomb. :(

17. You're friggin' hilarious!

:rofl:

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

20. Why are you gun grabbers so infatuated with male genitalia?

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

23. I am not a gun-grabber.

I will mock stupidity when openly offered, such as by the OP.

[Codename46]

34. I asked a legit question.

If you don't have the courtesy to give a legit answer then don't

12. Obama has lots on his plate. He aint worried aboout CCW Laws...

He has to put America to work so we can eat. They media won't tell you, (but surprise) there are no jobs in America.

22. I can't get the audio to play -- -is there a transcript where the context can be understood

Was he talking about a Chicago ban on CCW?

[raimius]

27. Chicago already has

a near complete ban on handguns (only registered, grandfathered handguns are legal).

"I am consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry." Chicago Tribune, 27 April 2004
Of course his position my have changed while campaigning, as it did about the constitutionality of the DC ban.
Hopefully, he will either leave this to the states or not be concerned enough to push legislation on it.

[aikoaiko]

24. He may be against CCW, but I don't think the Federal government has any say over that -

States issues.

29. stoptheaclu.com????

need a more substantive source than that....

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

30. You could listen to the audio.

[Blue_Tires]

31. well here is the direct youtube link

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-4jqZSEo0Q

why give some tit a clickthrough at a site called stoptheaclu.com??

and i also see the quote is FOUR years old...and as we know, no politician ever evolves and changes his stance on an issue...

[Fire_Medic_Dave]

32. Why visit the site?

It doesn't take a genius to interpret this one. I wish someone would have had the guts to ask him about it. I believe he is pretty smart so I don't see him touching either issue especially not after the Heller decision.

35. Could be that it's a "know thy enemy" thing

Heck, I visit the Brady and Gunguys pages just to keep tabs on what hilarity they're up to.
