2nd Ammendment under assault

Ladies and Gentlemen. The Democrat controlled congress and the Obama administration are moving forward with their plans to restrict your 2nd Ammendment rights. There is a bill in the House right now that will do just that. Specifically, it will institute a national gun registry.

This is the type of legislation that gun owners were warning about. Yet there were many gun owning Obama supporters that kept trying to tell us that it will all be ok. He supports gun ownership. Blah, blah.
