Is there any instance of a sitting president using a personal firearm for any office-related business whatsoever? In history? I don’t think there is.  Fuck I thought we were done with this shit. To say that Obama’s lack of firearm experience has any bearing on his ability to command the United States and Armed Services is like saying Steve Jobs can’t possibly run a computer company because he’s not proficient at JSP or Python scripting. It’s ridiculous, it’s ITT Tech skilled labor versus MIT problem solving, and just another “damned if you do, damned if you don’t” argument because I can only imagine the bigoted rhetoric that would surround any picture, story or other instance involving Obama with a weapon.

These fucking morons who cling to their guns like they’re each going to some day be the John Mclane that saves the world from terrorists in four convenient installments (but lets be honest, are more likely to shit their pants at the site of actual combat and use their fat wives and kids as human shield as they run for cover) need to get fucking lives and realize they’re not John Wayne, they’re Ferris Bueller’s whiney sister, always bitching about “Why do THEY get to have guns and we don’t! It’s not fair!”  If you’re such a fucking rebel that you have the Stars & Bars sailing on your porch / belt / pickup truck, take a cue and be a real rebel, stop being a baby and crying about the big bad congressmen who want to take your stockpile away. Or maybe trade a case of Winchester .223 for a history book and realize we’re living in the 21st century where the arms race has been disproven and your faggy little water pistol arsenal isn’t going to do shit in the wake of a real attack of any magnitude.

In the orginal article, the patriot author says, “I myself have about 50 guns…C’mon people. You can’t expect me to bear the burden for arming the whole neighborhood when the big one hits,” like someone is going to sail a Boeing or drop a suitcase bomb in his backwater swamp and he’s going to spring to action and… well, I don’t know what the fuck he means because I also don’t know what “the big one” is. Maybe he’s talking about aliens, but they have way cooler weapons than we do, I mean if my studies are accurate. His suggestion that malls and high school and college campuses would be safer if everyone was packing comes with no understanding of any of these environments - where a black friday sale at Linens & Things could turn any docile housewife into a cold blooded murder or on a college campus where the only occurrence more abundant than alcohol consumption is heated, ludicrous arguments about infantile shit.

The Best part is the video he posted of an 11-year-old girl shooting a gun, stating he would rather have her as president. First, this shows what a Cro-Magnon skill gun operation is (I have guns so I can say it’s about as difficult as walking and chewing gum), but all of the related videos (and comments) of young girls shooting and playing with guns with these redneck assholes giggling in the background - I can only imagine other “marksmen” settling down in their basement with a jar of moonshine lube and a Coors just furiously spanking their cocks to pre-teens with heavy steel.

Anyway the original post is all based on an assumption, one that I take with a grain of salt.
