9. "takin' yer guns" well, the President campaign on banning new purchases of popular firearms,...

...., rifles, shotguns, and pistols, in popular configurations and with popular accessories.

AG Holder and SoS Clinton did raise the specter of the banning weapons to law abiding folks early in the Obama administration.

Fortunately, the President and his administrator have not acted on any of their gun banning or accessing restricting rhetoric.

I don't think this inaction was caused by a change in position -- only a recognition that it would cost the party dearly in subsequent elections.
