Obama Gun Sale

Inspired by the threat posed to our Constitutional rights and potentially to civil order by the Moonbat Messiah, gun sales have been through the roof. In Hull, Georgia, one shop even advertised an "Obama Sale."

Liberals are predictably outraged that Second Amendment liberties would be exercised in the name of the personification of moonbattery. Disturbingly, they spin it like this:

An east Georgia gun shop has stopped using President-elect Barack Obama's name to sell weapons after some passers-by interpreted it as a call to violence against the country's first black leader.

Assassination fantasies allow moonbats to wallow in paranoia, to justify their hostility to our Constitutional rights, and to demonize their opponents. These morbid daydreams coming true would be about the only thing that could keep their cult going; otherwise their ersatz messiah will inevitably reveal himself to be profoundly short on qualifications. If only some bitter clinger would step up like the communist Lee Harvey Oswald, Obamunists could hold their saccharine delusions intact, and have a powerful martyr figure that would do more to promote moonbattery than any living bureaucrat.

Conservatives are the last people who would want Obama assassinated. But that's unlikely to come between the "reality-based community" and its community-based reality.

The more of us are armed, the less tyranny we will have to endure. This is why the Founding Fathers wanted us to have guns, and Obama's supporters don't.

On a tip from Wiggins.

If Lee Harvey Oswald were around today, he wouldn't be shooting Obama. He'd be his Secretary of State.

Gee, didn't "Plugs" Biden say something about "Barack ain't takin' away my guns!," or something to that effect during the campaign? Best you two get your stories straight (of course, Barry will let his veep keep a few of his weapons, since he's "special" -- as for the rest of us, however . . .).

And not only that, if a communist did step up to the plate, guess who'd get blamed for it? Again?

Anyone who's been thinking about getting some personal defense equipment best stop pondering and start buying. In one month, the cost in VA of a Sig P220 is up from $600 to $900, and that's for a weapon nobody expects to be banned as part of the typical Democrat "no bayonnets" type PR exercise. I have a feeling guns & ammo are gonna get a LOT more expensive.

And that's why I did my shopping months ago.

Posted by: PabloD at November 8, 2008 11:39 PM

I have plenty of the desired hardware. Ammo is the concern. No trip to WalMart is without the obligatory trip through the 'sporting goods' section.

Should anyone have any doubts about B. Hussein and his "useful idiot" Biden's stance on guns follow this link. http://gunbanobama.com/. I'm sure his "civilian national security force" will own guns..."An unarmed man can only flee from evil, and evil is not overcome by fleeing from it." -- Col. Jeff Cooper

Weapon: Check, 1918 Mk. III SMLE
Ammo can be a bit of a sticky wicket. It's Kansas, folks. The old .303 round isn't as plentiful as say .30-06 Springield. But there is hope! Gun Show at the Kansas Colesium on the weekend of the 22/23.
Back-up is the good old Mossberg 500. 12 gauge/3". I still have some pre-nutcase duck loads left. The ones with lead shot.

Posted by: Glenn M. Cassel AMH1(AW) USN RET at November 9, 2008 5:44 AM

Ditto. Shopping done weeks ago. Ammo will last longer than I will. One in the belt, one in the hand, one over the shoulder. ATV's ready to roll, gear packed, food, fuel, ammo stashed in various hillside hideaways. What's the expression..."guns, gold, gas, grain"? Multiply that by two. But the daily Rosary will do more than all others combined. Pray to prevent formation of The Brown Shirts. I don't care where your families live, they'd better have plans.

"Assassination fantasies allow moonbats to wallow in paranoia."

It's interesting that posters here often cite the so-called paranoia of the left when one of the defining characteristics of this site is paranoia. I've read comments about Brown Shirts, communists in power, being hauled off to the trains to be taken to the camps, Nazi salutes, guns taken away from anyone who doesn't support Obama, and on and on and on ... and finally rosie, who is ready to head for her fortress in the hills when the final battle comes.

What exactly would you call that, but paranoia in the extreme? Moonbattery of the highest order..

Posted by: waynewrite at November 9, 2008 7:20 AM

Waynewrite, by your flawed logic, an ounce of prevention is never worth a pound of cure, nor safe never better than sorry, nor prevention ever the best medicine. History never repeats itself and who should care, because it never holds a lesson.

I'd like to thank you for taking the time to make an ass of yourself just for us.

Posted by: AndyPandy at November 9, 2008 8:01 AM

waynewrite may be correct guys. Just because obama brought all this stuff up in his speeches doesn't mean he's actually going to do it. But just in case it turns out obama is not a lying sack of shit, lets be prepared.

"I'm sure his "civilian national security force" will own guns..."

Moonbats don't like guns. I'm pretty sure they will be the constituency of The Obamessiah's Sturmabteilung, so I'm not all that worried about his kooks.

However, gun laws and taxes will be on the move. You've got about 3 months to get what you need. If you haven't already, get into reloading. It's a skill that may come in handy.

Posted by: Henry at November 9, 2008 8:08 AM

Here's the kind of gun that would worry even me a little.

http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn46-e.htm

Caliber(s): 15.2mm Steyr APFSDS
Operation: long recoil, semi-automatic
Barrel: 1200 mm
Weight: 18 kg
Length: 1800 mm
Feed Mechanism: 5 rounds detachable box mag.

"It fires 20 gramm (308 grains) tungsten dart (fleschette) with muzzle velocity of 1450 meters per second (4750 fps). At 1000 meters this projectile will penetrate a 40 mm of RHA (rollded homogenous steel armour) and will result in serious secondary fragmentation effect behind the armour. That said, it will penetrate two walls of any modern APC at one kilometer range. The trajectory is very flat and does not rise higher than 800 mm above the line of sight when fired to 1000 meters"

Every politician who rides around in armoured limos wants lots of these around.

True, Henry, the rank-and-file, bed-wetting Democrats don't like firepower, but there are some moonbats who like guns. Take the Symbionese Liberation Army, for example. Sometimes, the anarchists want to hit the target with something other than buckets of urine.
A good rifle is useful, even if BHO doesn't resurrect the SA. Anybody remember Hurricane Katrina? I suppose the Obamunists think that natural disasters won't happen, now that their messiah, with his Kim-Il-Sung-like ability to control the weather, has been elected.

Posted by: PabloD at November 9, 2008 9:35 AM

Whinny sniveling liberals always say if gun were totaly banned everybody would be happy and we will all sit down and hug one another JUST HOW STUPID ARE THEY?

"...there are some moonbats who like guns. Take the Symbionese Liberation Army, for example."

Precisely, and for all who misunderstand, that's the concern here: "Liberals" do like guns, as long as they're the only ones who have them. And, as we've all seen through the years, their "nice" masks drop down further according to whatever increase of power they aquire.

Wow... just... wow. I hear there's a sale on tinfoil at Walmart Rosie. Perfect for making hats. And this article accuses US of being paranoid? Please.

Posted by: King Moonbat at November 9, 2008 10:56 AM

andypandy, nothing wrong with an ounce of prevention. You guys tend to lay it on by the ton, however. And yeah, of course history repeats itself, even in the U.S. You've had many repeats of this "get the guns and run for the hills" response in the past to the election of candidates you don't like. And yet I see you still have all your guns and your right to vote and your freedom of speech and assembly and all those other things that America stands for.

You elected a president, fer crissake, not an effing dictator, just as you have done every election for the past 200-odd years. Some of you talk as though they'll be goosestepping up to your door any day now. Do you honestly believe that ANY American, Obama voter or not, would sit still for having his rights infringed upon or taken away? Have any constitutional rights EVER been taken away in America? If you believe even half the stuff you say is going to happen then, yeah, I call that true paranoia.

Posted by: waynewrite at November 9, 2008 11:07 AM

"You elected a president, fer crissake, not an effing dictator..."

And an armed populous will guarantee that.

"You elected"??? Don't blame us for your f*ckup. We're victims of a majority of imbeciles.

And, finally – the firearms are MOSTLY for hunting so we can still be eating while the urbanites starve or depend on their little jesus to nourish them. Secondly the firearms are to protect are food from roving bands of those same hungry obama-worshippers.

Have any constitutional rights EVER been taken away in America

I won't go on about Roe V Wade, Janet Reno and her little attacks on the constitution, etc. But here is a small start:

Amendment 1 - Freedom of Religion, Press, Expression.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

WE HAVE HAD A FAIRNESS DOCTRINE THAT DID JUST THAT. READ CURRENT SPEECHES BY DEMOCRATS ON FAIRNESS DOCTRINE

Amendment 2 - Right to Bear Arms.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

NOTICE THE THOUSANDS OF GUN CONTROL LAWS IN THIS COUNTRY. SOUNDS LIKE INFRINGEMENT TO ME


Amendment 14 -

3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

HERE'S A LITTLE PROBLEM. IF YOU HAVE GIVEN AID OR COMFORT TO ENEMIES OF THE UNITED STATES, FOR INSTANCE AN UNREPENTENT TERRORIST WHO HAS BOMBED AND ADMITTED BOMBING GOVERNMENT BUILDINGS, YOU CAN'T BE PRESIDENT. IF YOU HAVE GIVEN SPEECHES WITH HIM, FOR HIM, ENDORSED BOOKS, SHARED GRANT MONEY, AND GONE TO HIS HOME FOR THE START OF YOUR CAREER, YOU JUST MIGHT BE CONSIDERED TO HAVE GIVEN AID AND COMFORT TO HIM. AYERS HAS NOT BEEN CONVICTED--FOR THIS PURPOSE IT ISN'T NECESSARY. HE HAS BRAGGED ABOUT IT.

Article. II. - The Executive Branch

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

NOW WE HAVE A PRESIDENT ELECT WHO HAS NOT ALLOWED ACCESS TO HIS BIRTH RECORDS. THEY ARE SEALED AND NOT EXAMINED BY FORENSIC EXPERTS. THERE IS A QUESTION ABOUT HIS BIRTH. SOME OF HIS RELATIVES HAVE SAID HE WAS NOT BORN IN HAWAII. ON A TRIP TO HAWAII HE MANAGED TO GET THE GOVERNOR TO SAY HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII. THIS REMAINS OPEN TO QUESTION AND WILL REMAIN OPEN FOREVER, UNLESS IT IS ADDRESSED IN SOME KIND OF FORMAL AND THOROUGH WAY, MANY WILL DOUBT THAT HE IS ACTUALLY A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.

"Have any constitutional rights EVER been taken away in America?"
It's funny, liberals like you LOVED to howl about how Bush supposedly took away all your Constitutional rights, yet upon being asked what specific rights they lost, can never come up with an answer.
"there are some moonbats who like guns. Take the Symbionese Liberation Army, for example. Sometimes, the anarchists want to hit the target with something other than buckets of urine."
Well, anarchist scumbags tend to find other projectile weapons they can use during their riots (Oh, excuse me, I meant their "Direct Actions") which aren't as heavily regulated as guns. For instance, they love using Molotov cocktails, and are also quite fond of high- powered "Wrist rocket" slingshots. Also, when the St. Paul police raided some hideout buildings for the RNC Welcoming Committee a few days before the Convention started, they discovered the anarchist had stockpiled a huge arsenal of basic weapons for the convention, and in addition to the aforementioned examples of slingshots, Molotovs, etc., they also had throwing knives, and a compound bow with a full set of arrows.
Though, yeah, some moonbats do try and get together guns. For instance, a few months ago, I regularly clashed on Youtube with a twisted sociopath who loved bragging about how he was starting a rebel group that was planning a bloody Communist revolution to take over the U.S., and said he was fully intending on having his men use guns. To try and scare me and the others who butted heads with him on the site, he bragged about supposedly recruiting urban gang members to be part of his organization's foot soldiers. Of course, like most libs who make such threats on the Internet, he's undoubtedly a worthless coward who'd never try to pull it off and his group would get their butts handed to them if they tried, but it shows that there are some moonbats who'll try to use guns, and others who won't.

Assassination fantasies? As you might recall from your history lessons, Adolf Hitler wasn't assassinated, although some tried. He reportedly pulled the trigger on himself when the time came. End of problem.

(I just wonder if the pistol he used was properly licensed.)

Posted by: Andrew at November 9, 2008 7:05 PM

On the other hand, Joseph Stalin probably was assassinated, by interior minister Lavrentiy Beria, who may have slipped him some poison.

Such nice people.

Posted by: Andrew at November 9, 2008 7:30 PM

Who the president is does not matter as long as an informed population defends the Constitution. Get copies of the Constitution, Bill Of Rights and Declaration of Independance and dissiminate to all you can.I once took an oath 23 years ago to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foriegn and domestic, aand I still honor that oath.

Posted by: James at November 9, 2008 7:41 PM

For those who claim nobody has ever lost a constitutional right, how about losing their lives? Anyone remember Ruby Ridge or Waco? But I suppose those people were just being paranoid.. right up until they were shot by trespassing government snipers.

Posted by: joefriday at November 10, 2008 9:22 PM

Amen Andrew!!! I took that same oath, around the same time you took it. It looks that that threat is now domestic (though nobody seems to know where the magic negro was really born). Seems to me that ex-military civilians are this country's best hope for a free future.
