Gun Control is Completely Useless.

Barack Obama and his anti-gun cronies will do ANYTHING to set the stage for passage of the UN Small Arms Treaty -- including putting innocent American lives at risk.
In fact, former Ambassador John Bolton said recently that President Obama’s ATF agents watched silently as Mexican drug cartels smuggled hundreds of rifles across the border to:
". . . provide a foundation for their argument [on] why the United States will have to enter into, in short order, the United Nations-negotiated arms trade treaty."
Yeah, you heard that right . . .
The ATF's Gun-Walker program was designed to generate so much border violence that Congress would have no choice but to pass the UN Small Arms Treaty.

I will not support him for another election if the long registry isn't repealed or replaced with something more rational.
Besides, I have always felt that conservative supporters hold their representatives to a higher standard than liberals hold theirs.
Harper knows and understands that, imo.
:lol::lol:..........Oh stop!!! :lol::lol:......C'mon!! :lol::lol:........Harpo'll read your post and just **** himself with fear..................not.:lol:
:lol::lol:..........Oh stop!!! :lol::lol:......C'mon!! :lol::lol:........ The only people that might be doing that out of fear, are the guys hoping Harper won't kill the registry.
Harper has no choice.
It is not just Cranky, it is a lot of people in this country. I also would not support the Conservatives in the next election if they do not kill the registry.
Nor would I contribute money to them.
One of the foundation blocks of Conservative success has been the inflow of small amounts of money from a vast number of individuals, a grass-roots movement backed by tens of thousands of cheques for $35, $75, $100.....whatever.......
That is a phenomenon that sprang directly from the old Reform Party, and a huge number of those that have kept the party afloat are old Reformers, like me.
And we are rabidly against the registry.
So, fail us, and you lose a significant block of your base at election time, and a disproportionate number of the small donations that have fueled the party's success.
Harper ain't a gun guy.
He also ain't a fool.
The registry will be gone before 2012 dawns.
Wanna bet?
A little tip for you and others of like mind. I contributed to a political party about 30 years ago.....................complete waste of money, luckily I figured it out before I had too much in there. If you feel you must contribute money contribute it directly to something the party supports (so long as they provide tax receipts) If a political party needs money they can sell hot dogs like everyone else!
I have no problems with the idea of putting your money where your mouth is. but JLM is definitely correct to warn that it can be a waste.
Not every person is cut out to be a policy maker or a policy shaker. So when we do find something we believe in, it doesn't hurt to support it a little.

over 1400 posts later, and I have to say that this is still an excellent post. I would like to thank you for spending the time to put it all together for us.
What a shame!
Like most anti-gun ads, the guy speaking in this is either an idiot or a liar, or both.
You can NOT buy full auto firearms in the United States without an expensive federal license and a thorough background check (since 1934)............and the sale of new full autos has been prohibited for years.
So, so typical.
actually, you can buy fully automatic weapons in the USA but you have to jump through a mountain of paperwork to do so, and it is extremely difficult, practically impossible to qualify for the permits.
so, if there is a problem with fully automatic weapons in the USA, why would we want to implement the same costly and ineffective bureaucracy for all firearms?
Don't the anti-rights people realize that they won't be accomplishing anything except tread all over the rights of law abiding citizens. Terrorists and criminals will still be able to get their firearms.
Edit: oops, I see that you stated it was possible too. sorry. I'll leave my post intact because I think it builds on what you wrote.

If I put on a turban and grow a beard, and go on the tube could I frighten little old ladies into thinking this scenario is within the bounds of reality and they would agree to banning Bazooka bubble gum strictly because it has the word bazooka in it.
Has there been false alQaeda videos in the past at all that have cause overreaction and panic?
The alCIAda boogeyman has so many people psychologically ****ed up they'll agree to anything under the " I have nothing to hide mentality" and feel it is their patriotic duty to be x-rayed, groped, treated like a criminal, allow there homes to be search warrantlessly, all your paper and email read, and phone calls listened to
Even the Stazi were less invasive than HLS.
