A gentleman who had expressed concern about the newly-elected President’s stance on the Second Amendment. The writer, a sportsman and conservationist, asks of Obama:

“…I’m a strong supporter of gun safety and mandatory hunter education lessons…We (sportsmen) already almost entirely support wildlife conservation, through present hunting license fees, taxes, waterfowl stamps, habitat stamps…If you make hunting ammo/guns so expensive that we cannot afford to hunt…where will the funds for wildlife come from?…Are these (legally bought sporting guns and ammo) a primary contributor in the majority of crimes?…Are we law abiding Sportsmen going to have to pay the price for another problem? I only hope that prior to your making decisions on bans, excise taxes, laws, etc. that you look at the facts proven historically by other countries’ attempts to control gun violence. Most recently…Australia imposed a ban/surrender law forcing individuals to give up their firearms, which the Government then destroyed….The Results? Within 1 years’ time, homicides up 3.2%, assaults up 8.6%…homicides with firearms are now up 300%! Can you please put my mind at ease…“.

False dichotomy. Someone can be in favor of gun control and also support the 2nd Amendment. It's just the gun lobby and gun freaks like to paint any politician in favor of gun control laws as being against the 2nd Amendment. That's like saying you must hate ice cream if you go on a diet.

Ouch, isn't a dichotomy when you have your dich surgically removed?

Obama won't actually pass any laws. They're going to end around through the UN. "Because the world has spoken and the community of humans wants a more peaceful society."

You are correct about the UN. The UN will continue to play a larger and larger role in world affairs.
