The Obama-ACORN Anti Gun Conspiracy

ACORN -- the Association of Community Organizations for Reform -- a publicly funded national organization is using your tax dollars to actively interfere with the Second Amendment exercise of gun rights in New Jersey and elsewhere.

ACORN went public with its gun control activism when it intervened in an unsuccessful attempt to defend Jersey City, New Jersey, a hot bed of anti-gun rights extremists, to disarm its citizens with a local gun control ordinance. ACORN pushed for stronger local gun restrictions that were already struck down by the New Jersey state court as a violation of state law.

Obama and ACORN's interest is in disarming law-abiding citizens.

It is an outrage that this group has intervened to defend an anti-gun ordinance that has already been declared illegal by the court. So long as ACORN accepts one penny of public funding, the organization should remain absolutely neutral on social issues, political campaigns and especially legal actions defending the right to keep and bear arms.

For the past few election cycles ACORN has clearly grown more partisan toward the radical political Left. ACORN'S PAC, in fact, endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for president, even though their tax-exempt status prohibits endorsement of political candidates. That's hardly surprising since he used to serve as their legal counsel and he taught the group about community organizing. ACORN and Obama are lockstep in seeking to destroy our Second Amendment rights.

We call upon the FBI to expand the scope of its ACORN investigation and focus on the group's involvement in the Jersey City case.

We support Ohio Congressman John Boehner's request that the White House immediately block all federal funding of ACORN activities until this group's questionable activities are fully investigated. We want to know how they are paying for attorneys, and why Seton Hall's Center for Social Justice and the Public Interest Law Center are providing legal assistance to ACORN for this effort.

ACORN has, since 1998, received an estimated $31 million in government funding. Yes, Obama knows a great deal about ACORN and its role in the bailout mess. He is a central figure in the left-wing ACORN exploitation of financial institutions to pressure them to make high risk loans. The very same left-wing ACORN that was sued for voter fraud in our last presidential election.

Obama's presidential campaign paid more than $800,000 to a front of ACORN, currently under investigation in a dozen States for voter registration fraud and bribery schemes, for "get-out-the-vote-efforts";

Obama co-sponsored legislation called the "Helping Families Save their Homes in Bankruptcy Act of 2007"-- that was supported by ACORN and protects them from prosecution and any responsibility for causing the largest financial crisis since The Great Depression.

"Bad enough that ACORN is implicated in fraudulent activities in several states, but now an ACORN chapter in the Garden State is working against the ability of New Jersey gun owners to exercise a constitutionally protected individual civil right to own a handgun," said former NYPD detective, Sid Frances.

This is still the United States, not a socialist gulag. Public money should not be given to private organizations which then turn around and utilize that funding to usurp the electoral process and erode constitutionally guaranteed civil rights.

The fact that the federal government would even consider using ACORN as part of its 2010 Census to disenfranchise gun rights supporters is cause for Americans to be very concerned.

All that seems to be on the minds of Anti-Gun Obama and at the offices of gun control extremists is figuring out how to invade your privacy to erode and eventually destroy the right, and the means, of self-defense.

Like all other threats against our freedoms, we must rise and cut off all federal funding to ACORN.

In order to stop Obama and his fellow gun-grabbers-we need to let the Congress know with thousands of faxes telling them to stop ACORN and leave guns alone.

Americans like you who understand what our Founding Fathers envisioned for our nation...and who are willing to fight to defend our Constitution and for what it stands.

So please, help the Second Amendment Foundation and me defeat those who wish to gut and trash the United States Constitution.

Help me flood the U.S. Senate with a sea of FAXES big enough to drown each and every Senator willing to vote away the Second Amendment.

Take this article very seriously if you don't want to lose your 2nd amendment rights. Acorn will destroy this country if allowed to do so. They are as dangerous as any terrorist group. Our leaders, including our president need to act on this situation immediately.

ACORN employees were brought up on Federal Election Fraud Charges. Nice Tone for the organization.

Acorn is just the type of people that Obama likes to associate with. I don't know which is worse Acorn or the terrorist. It's unbelievable that this person could be elected president. Hope all of you moderates that voted for him are happy.

I don't know how to tell Republicans this, it's gonna be crushing, but the majority of the funding for ACORN took place under the executive guidance of none other than George W, according to the Congressional record. Every year during the Bush administration, ACORN Housing Corporation received more than $1 million (from 2001, when George Bush became president, until 2008, the Bush administration provided over $13 million to ACORN), for such things as housing counseling and working to prevent predatory lending in low-income communities. And many Republicans who are now screaming bloody murder and spinning fantasies about billions of dollars in funding for ACORN (such as loony-tunes Michelle Bachmann, who was probably given this information by a space alien), as well as accusing ACORN of being the cause of the housing crisis, were sitting right there when Bush handed out the dough. And let's be clear here: The accusation that ACORN contributed to the housing crisis by “bullying” and “intimidating” banks into irresponsible lending to minorities by, perhaps, invoking the 1977 Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) is more right-wing fantasy (which many of my comment-writers seem to have bought hook, line and sinker). The problem here is that, according to housing experts, a large number of subprime loans weren't even made under the CRA, which applies only to depository institutions. And as far as President Obama being “in bed” with ACORN, it was more right-wing fantasty that Dems were funneling money to ACORN via the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act (which created the Troubled Asset Relief Program). At the risk of gravely disappointing my many disapproving comment-writers, neither the draft proposal nor the final version of the bill contained any language at all mentioning ACORN.
