As was pointed out, no one is above the constitution. Not you, me, the president, or anyone.

That's not how that works. We're not even discussing taking guns by force. We're talking about limiting the sale and distribution of certain classes of guns.

I'm sorry, but you lost any credibility you still had at this point. This video doesn't help your point, and just looks like absurd propaganda.

I'm not saying Obama is the next world dictator but wtp... he probably is. Hitler also passed laws prohibiting Jews from owning guns in 1938, GUESS WHAT HAPPENED IN 1939!
You keep using that word, "dictator". I do not think it means what you think it means. You are comparing one of the worst men in history to a decent President that has made mistakes, but has also succeeded in some areas. I'm not saying Obama is a great president, but he isn't a dictator by any stretch of the imagination, unless your imagination is a subsidiary of Fox News.
I support the second amendment to a point. It's in there for a reason. But at the same time, I also support gun control. I have no objection to people with the proper training and ability using certain types of guns for self defense. But I'm to this day unsure of as to WHY civilians need assault rifles or anything similar.
