Gallup: 55% Of Gun Owners Think Obama Will Try To Ban Guns

2nd amendment

A new Gallup poll of gun owners shows 55% believe President Obama will at some point try and ban guns.

A new Gallup poll may explain recent reports of increased gun and ammunition sales in the U.S. Majorities of those who personally own a gun (55%) and of those with a gun in the household (53%), as well as 41% of all Americans, believe that President Obama "will attempt to ban the sale of guns in the United States while he is president."

It’s certainly not a far fetched thing to believe. Barack Obama has been a fierce critic of gun ownership his entire political career. There was not a single piece of gun control legislation that passed through the Chicago legislature that he did not offer his full-throated support for.

It was only when he decided to run for president that he suddenly put on a more gun friendly face. We’re not fooled. Not only does President Obama despise gun ownership, Attorney General Eric Holder has been a long-time crusader for gun control. Both Obama and Holder have expressed a desire to ban handguns for all Americans.

It’s not likely any kind of ban on guns would be successful even if Obama tried it, but all Americans must remain vigilant. If not for the economy and health care, I suspect Obama would have already tried to reinstate the “assault weapons” ban.

Barack Obama is the most extreme radical leftist ever to occupy The White House. He doesn’t like the Constitution and he doesn’t like capitalism. Therefore, everything he does must be viewed through this lens. Our freedoms, including the right to bear arms, have never been under greater threat than they are right now.
