Then-Sen. Obama Co-Sponsored ‘Stand Your Ground’ Law In 2004 In Illinois

President Obama may currently be calling on the states to review their respective “stand your ground” gun laws, but he wasn’t always so opposed to the right-to-carry rule.

In 2004, while a senator in Illinois, he co-sponsored legislation that allowed for the same rights.

The pertinent legislation was SB 2386, amending the criminal code of 1961. It was introduced in the 93rd General Assembly session and passed into law on July 28, 2004.

He was for the 'stand your ground' then because he knew in his corrupt heart that he may need assistance someday. He has a very, very, very selective memory.

Well, well, well...how convenient for him. What a disappointment this guy is. Hope and change and transparency, baby.

9:18 AM you say what a disappointment he is? I gather from your comment that you voted for him.

Pitiful!

He's more of a Republican than I thought.
