I think it is telling that when Obama gives a planned speech to the masses, that is covered by the media he comes across completely different than he does when speaking to his base at a small uncovered event. Seems his true colors come out then.
Email from Obama's campaign directly to me responding to my request on his view of firearms... verbatim (wording bolded by me for emphasis!).
"I will continue to work for effective gun laws, including reinstatement of the assault weapons ban that the last Congress allowed to expire, and effective law enforcement. I will also speak out against the culture of violence that traps so many of our young people.
Thank you again for contacting me on this important issue.
