Barack is Pissed
Thursday, April 18, 2013
Well boo fucking hoo.
As if any of us gives a flying fuck what you think, Mr. Obama.
If you want to cut back on gun crime, how about you do something productive to that end instead of willfully lying and standing firm against people's God-given and Constitutionally protected rights? The shit you support won't do squat to stop murderers from doing what they do. A properly armed citizenry will.
Make no mistake about it, Mr. Obama. We see through your foolishness. These gun grabs and restrictions serve one purpose and one purpose only. They are an attempt to keep law-abiding citizens from coming after YOU when it's time to aggressively stand up to your oppression. It's not about protecting the innocent. It's about protecting the guilty.
It's about protecting politicians who can't get their grimy paws out of people's bank accounts and wallets. It's about protecting real criminals who murder and steal while punishing innocents for exercising their rights. It's mostly about protecting politicians who are so busy looking for ways to intrude into areas they don't belong with impunity.
For using the victims of violent crime as political pawns, THEY are the ones who should be ashamed. No need for Stephanie Taylor (of the so-called "Progressive Change Campaign Comittee") to publish the roll call vote. I'm going to do it right here, right now.

*Reid
voted no as a procedural move so that he would retain the ability under
Senate rules to bring up the measure again should supporters believe
they've mustered enough votes to secure passage.
