Democrats Run As Pro-Gun To Get Elected, Then War Against Guns

When Democrat Texas gubernatorial candidate Wendy Davis admitted to faking her pro-gun positions in an effort to defeat Republican Greg Abbott she put herself in line with a growing number of Democrats who’ve claimed to be pro-gun in order to win elections, then waged war against the Second Amendment once in office.

For example, consider President Obama, who actually campaigned as a supporter of the Second Amendment to win his first presidential election.

According to Real Clear Politics, he said the following in 2008: “I believe in the Second Amendment. I believe in people’s lawful right to bear arms. I will not take your shotgun away. I will not take your rifle away. I won’t take your handgun away.” Fast forward to 2013 and Obama’s presidency was characterized by various gun pushes that included complete bans on certain types of rifles.

Fox 59 reported that Obama stood among Sandy Hook families at that time and described gun control as part of “our first task as a society.”
