Don't blame Obama for the rising ammo prices, it's not like he's the guy in the lab developing the zombie virus...

Don't get me started.  With all the research I've been doing for my AR15 build, I swear I've run into people who take the zombie thing seriously.

What has Obama done to get any reaction as an anti-gun president?

His "bitter clingers" comment got everything stirred up prior to him taking office.  A lot of people are still bracing for "what is to come" which has driven up ammo prices something fierce  <_< .  But since he chose to expend his political capital on Obamacare and some other legislation, he hasn't really done a whole lot about guns.

Not a whole lot, or nothing?

From what I hear, firearms & ammunition importation has been a touch more restricted since Obama took office.  So not a whole lot.

Of course there's the "Fast and Furious" fiasco, but that doesn't directly relate.

I must admit it that I love it when stupidity is self-punishing.  I am willing to bet the morons are still buying for stockpiling even with prices this high.

This is a topic I don't have much interest in so my questions are at least partly serious.

What was the "fast & furious" fiasco?

Oh, it compounds itself for sure.  Plus this is an election year.  For the calibers I use, ammo is two to four times more expensive now than it was 10 years ago. 

Good time to try my hand at loading my own, methinks.

The agitation during the Clinton years is nothing compared to now, and you know it.

There's a big difference between being pissed off that a Democratic centrist steals a couple of your ideas versus everything from challenging the legitimacy of the President's birth, to showing up at campaign rallies with guns, to calling the President a liar during a Presidential Address to the United States Congress, to "feeling threatened" on an airport tarmac.

So don't gimme that shit.  You fucking know better.  It's different when there's a nigger involved.

Well they haven't successfully managed to launch a major terrorist attack.  At least not yet.  Though there have been some attempts.  Good paranoid quote from the NRA guy though.  They are really beyond the pale and their screwiness aren't they?

Attempt to stop gun running to Mexico that went array.  Conservatives went apeshit at the idea that guns are smuggled from the US to Mexico and that the Feds might try to stop it.  Obviously it's part of that conspiracy that the NRA guy was talking about.

And these people are allowed to buy semi-automatic assault rifles ?
