When Clinton was elected and again when Obama was elected, the fear/fervor factor caused people to horde weapons and bullets to the point there are shortages and price spikes. They never actually did much to restrict either, so it was unwarranted, but peoples reaction to the perception actually increases the number of privately held weapons and ammo. Ironically the restrictions are from the public behavior, not any liberal legislation. 

 

The irony is that the Republicans who perpetuate the widening gap between the classes as part of the ruling class will in the end lament their pro gun stance to the masses as those very guns will be turned against them. Just as all those Toby Keithers who on the one hand celebrate the military are paranoid against the government turning on them and taking their guns, well if this were to happen guess who will be doing the dirty work of actually taking them? That's right that would be the same military they celebrate. Ignorance and fear is rampant in this country.

Why would any liberal blog or news outlet post it? They don't want people armed with guns. They use the all powerful govt as a proxy in lieu of their personal gun.

But seriously, Pelosi leveled that charge last week and yesterday Sharpton and a lot of his buddies made the same charge.
