"'They are coming to take your guns away!' That was the message from this past weekend’s annual NRA Convention. In fact, it’s the same message we have heard for years from the NRA. And just as it has been in the past, as it was this weekend, that message is a lie."
"No one in the Obama administration or any Democratic administration has ever tried to take law-abiding citizens guns away. Even when President Bill Clinton signed into law the assault weapons ban ... it 'grandfathered in weapons and ammo clips produced or purchased before the enactment of the ban.'"
"There are now nearly 300 million guns in the United States. It would be impossible to take even a fraction of those guns away from people. ..." ... |

Apparently this fool is either outright lying or conveniently forgets Diane Feinstein's famous quote,"Banning guns addresses a fundamental right of all Americans to feel safe" (she is apparently the only one to find that right in the Constitution), and of course the "If I could have banned them all - 'Mr. and Mrs. America turn in your guns' - I would have!"; or Obama's comment this week how 'it's heartbreaking' they couldn't get more gun control passed through Congress
So, Mr. Obeidallah, who's the real liar here?

Seems Mr. LaPierre started his career with the NRA in a similar vein back when he was a field grunt shilling for members as I recall. There certainly has to be reasons for the emerging animus twixt Wayne and Mr. Cox. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
