Obama Suggests US Needs Ban On Semiautomatic, Automatic Weapons

[The Nature Boy 4,224]

As for the background checks, when convicted felons try to purchase a firearm and are denied, that is breaking the law. However, they are almost NEVER prosecuted for it.

Ban AR-15's close the gun show loophole, wash spin repeat Both are asine low percentage media propagated talking point echoed by low information voters that don't understand the issues. Yet that's all we ever get from the left. Then they get amazed informed gun people look at them like they are stupid

The Kenyan's absolutely insane rhetoric has probably done more to sell guns and populate the roles of the NRA, than any man in history. This week 500,000 more people probably woke up and said, WOW the NRA has been right all this time, Obama really does want to take our guns, i am joining

You would think that by now politicians would have figured out that as soon as you tell someone they can't have something, they decide they want it, even if they didn't want it before. The more the talk of bans, the stronger the sales. I posted this a week or so ago, I have a cousin whose husbands family owns a gun/sport shop. They had a record year after Sandy Hook. They sold every thing they had, even used guns. Funny thing, when we were together at a family wedding, he was praising Obama to the high heavens, yet he was so disappointed when he got elected because he feared he was going to fight for gun bans. Obama made his family a lot of money.

And yet Obama still talks of bans, meanwhile the factories are working 24/7 cranking out guns and ammo to keep up with the demand. I'd like to see some numbers on gun sales from year to year during his administration.

Several people have mentioned getting into reloading, might be good insurance.

Sounds good to me. When do we start?

Well - first The Kenyan needs to finish up on legalizing, on a Federal-level, the use of the mariajuana.

Guns are next, after that [i saw his manifesto this weekend and my father was asking me about it]

Wrong.

Statistically, that number should be approx. 11,000, not 500,000, but then again, hyperbole is the best thing in the universe, ever!

It is a lower number.

First you need to determine the number of minutes in a week: There are 7 days in a week. Each day has 24 hours and each of those 60 minutes. You too can do the math:

7 x 24 X 60 = 10,080. You can round up to 11,000 on the account of twin and triplets.

Based on the adage that there is one is born every minute, your figure should be in that vicinity.

QED.

I have no clue of the real number, but fail to see how the birth rate affects it

It is a matter of math. It is quite simple really.

I did about year or so ago, during the most recent shortage. I had the equipment cost reimbursed within a month. I've made a nice profit since. I've been making 'hot loads' (extra powder-more power) for home protection and 'soft loads' (less powder-less kick) for friends that do competition shooting.

Can not help but think that perhaps sales were flagging and the Democrats got a nice donation from the Gun Manufacturers?
