Petraeus’ new group is called the Veterans Coalition for Common Sense, and it’s attracting support from other former military leaders, namely former CIA Director Michael Hayden and retired Adm. Thad Allen. There are 23 veterans in total on the advisory committee. The goal of the group is to push legislation that mandates stronger background checks for gun purchases, though Mark Prentice, communications director for Americans for Responsible Solutions, affirmed the importance of the Second Amendment.

He showed poor judgement with the bimbo and lied about it, and he is showing poor judgement by this action.
There is no such thing as "common sense" gun control. That is just a moniker invented by the anti-gun liberals.
The criminals already get guns regardless of laws, and will always get guns regardless of additional laws.
These so called "common sense" laws only harass law abiding citizens.
If Obama actually wanted to reduce gun related crime and murders, all he has to do is enforce the existing laws against felons having guns, and straw purchases. That he won't do so and continues to attack law abiding citizens speaks volumes. |

| Is there any doubt now that there are those in the upper echelon of command that would have no problem following orders to confiscate guns? |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
