Wow, they are seriously jumping to conclusions. o_O; Obama's just trying to stop trigger happy idiots from killing both them selves and others and I for one commend him for it. It should have happened long ago in my opinion, the only people in the US who should be allowed to own a gun are Police officers and people enlisted in the army, Navy of marines. >.>
Even if Obama is trying to stop 'trigger happy idiots' that ignores the fact that the 2nd Amendment exists to protect the American people from a tyrannical government. If the 2nd Amendment is infringed it would allow the next president to do away with most, if not all, the other Amendments.
Also, look up 'NDAA 2012', which destroys due process.
the 2nd amendment was written in the 1800's and is not needed in the modern day. there's no domestic threat to the US, only foreign, which only the US army, navy and marines need to worry about, aloowing the american Public to bare arms will only lead to more gang wars and suicdial killings, e.g.: a depressed teenager taking a gun to school, holding his class hostage, killing half of the class, his teacher and then himself (this has ACTUALLY happened in the past. >.>).
The reason why these school shootings happen at all is because they are advertised in the mainstream media, and by the schools themselves, as 'gun free zones'. So of course you'll get nutbars attacking them. But statistically you're more likely to get killed by a knife, hammer, or yes, even a fist rather than a gun. Doesn't mean we should ban those too.
Also keep in mind that the school that the president's daughters go to is guarded by people with, surprise surprise, guns.
It's also incorrect to think that new gun laws will prevent gang wars. People in gangs tend to get their weapons via non-legal means in the first place.
Also there are domestic threats in the US. There always have been and always will be.
