The enemy is radical Islam, not the National Rifle Association

Over the past eight years - the Obama administration has never let a crisis go to waste. The Orlando terrorist attack was no different.

President Obama co-opted an Islamic radical terrorist attack and turned it into a campaign to ban “assault rifles” (their words, not mine).

“We have to make it harder for people who want to kill Americans to get their hands on weapons of war that let them kill dozens of innocents,” the president declared.

So does he plan on confiscating our pressure cookers? What about fertilizer or cutlery or jetliners? Would that make us safer?

“Enough talking about being tough on terrorism,” the president said in a lecture to the nation on Tuesday. “Actually be tough on terrorism, and stop making it easy as possible for terrorists to buy assault weapons.”

Look at the great job the government has done over the past 30 years getting illegal drugs off of the streets. How are they going to get illegal gun's off of the streets? At least let us good guys have a chance to defend ourselves. If you took the guns away from law abiding citizens what would stop a group of gang banger's from doing home invasions every night? Crime will go up.This Fl. shooter was once given a gun as a guard. He went to a gun free zone to do a major killing. What would happen in a gun free zone city with all of the nuts in this country? Oh I know take a look at Chicago, some of the strictest gun laws in the country up to 50 killings a week. Wake up politicians and get the death penalty back to work for the good of the people.

Again, Florida is a concealed carry state. over 350 people disarmed themselves and walked in to a posted gun free nightclub and became targets for a known group of religious fanatics who are known to hate gays and believe they should be killed.

Had they decided to carry that night and removed the sign off the door, the casualties would have been a fraction of what it was, if a lone gunman even made a decision to go in there in the first place.

He cased the place prior to his attack to make sure it was a gun free zone to begin with.

So, yes, it IS a gun issue!

One of the stupidest out of many stupid things he has said. So if we pass a law the terrorists are going to fold and walk away. Because they don't want to break a law. What a moron. And then there is the fact that liberal judges and lawyers don't want laws enforced. I can't wait until he is gone and forgotten.
