obama guns and military?

December 15th, 2009 by eranio

ive seen this on several news shows and from what im getting out of it hes going to make it harder for regular civilians to get guns and raise the taxes on them i think 500% if not banning them altogether. i also heard one of them mention hes planning on cutting the military funding down by a 1/4. hows that possible when we are getting a 3.5% pay raise in january and over 27,000 marines and double army is due to go overseas
with the guns the news said he only supported concealed carry for retired police, what about military we are trained 200% better in the use of firearms of all types than police. what about people who own assault rifles, like myself.
if he cuts the military funding hows that going to affect people like me who served in the military for 10 years and plan on retiring from the armed forces, in my case the marines.

    I hope when the terrorists pick a city to bomb it’s filled with people who voted Obama in.

    well the pay raise is guarantee a half percent higher then the average civilian annual pay increase

    which last year it was if I remember 2.5 so we got the 3.0 and then the 3.5 was retroactive after it passed

    so you are by law guaranteed the pay raise

    no dem has ever cared about the military so I wouldn’t be surprised if he does cut the military down by a 1/4 and start his Iraq withdrawal plans the minute he steps into office

    thank god I separated on Monday just hope the job outlook is going to be better with him as the President my opinion doubtful

    Obama has not made ANY policy statements on gun ownership that I am aware of and did not campaign on any firearms related issues. The only things I have heard about Obama’s thoughts on gun rights have been fear-mongering from people who have been making stuff up.

    Obama has however been very vocal in his strong support for the military. This stuff you think you have heard is bunk.
