Obama's Pie Hole

......What was done after the September 11 Attacks, to secure the safety of Air Flights in The United States ?

......Was There Any Legislation Introduced to Ban Air Travel ?

[blueglass]

Yes mainly against Canadians who may have been caught with a joint in their youth. They can not even fly over the US on their way somewhere else or they will be jailed. The vast majority of them did a silly thing as a youth but pay for the rest of their lives for the mistake. Our Country does not hold this against others for minor offences such as these.

....blueglass; I shot this photo from my father's plane in 1988, over The City of Atlanta. When entering restricted air space, we had to receive clearance from The Atlanta's International Airport. Crossing over U.S. borders, after the 9/11 Attacks, would be like committing suicide. My father's plane was registered with the Federal Aviation Administration, and Atlanta's Tower had to keep track on his plane with their radar screen, the entire time that we was flying over their restricted air space.

......Maybe this would to explain :

.....In the Aftermath of The Sandy Hook Murders Obama called for swift gun control legislation, for this, Obama called on Joe Biden to do this trickery task, and then Joe Biden called on Dianne Feinstein :

.....Part of Dianne Feinstein's Assault Weapons Ban of 2013, and All of it is Double Talking :
.......The legislation bans the sale, transfer, manufacturing and importation of:
......All semiautomatic rifles that can accept a detachable magazine
....All semiautomatic pistols that can accept a detachable magazine

..Banning the transfer of firearms, would eliminate firearms as family heirlooms to be passed down for future generations. Most all modern day Semi-Auto Rifles & Pistols requires separate magazine feeding devices.



....Why did Obama call on Joe Biden ?

Because

"I'm the guy who originally wrote the assualt weapons ban of 1994"

Joe Biden

The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act (VCCLEA; also known as the Biden Crime Law) was an act of Congress dealing with crime and law enforcement that became law in 1994. It is the largest crime bill in the history of the US and will provide for 100,000 new police officers, $9.7 billion in funding for prisons and $6.1 billion in funding for prevention programs which were designed with significant input from experienced police officers. [1] Sponsored by U.S. Representative Jack Brooks of Texas, the bill was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Bill Clinton.

Following the 101 California Street shootings and other high-profile instances of violent crime, the act expanded federal law in several ways. One of the most noted sections was the Federal Assault Weapons Ban. Other parts of the act provided for a greatly expanded federal death penalty, new classes of individuals banned from possessing firearms, and a variety of new crimes defined in statutes relating to immigration law, hate crimes, sex crimes, and gang-related crime.

.....Most serious Gun Owners already knew about Obama's Anti-Gun stance, before he was elected in 2008. He admitted, on a opened microphone, that things would be different during his second term. "This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility," Obama said.

Obama's Second-Amendment Dance

Obama, disagreeing with the D.C. government and gun control advocates, declares that the Second Amendment's "right of the people to keep and bear arms" applies to individuals, not just the "well regulated militia" in the amendment. In the next breath, he asserts that this constitutional guarantee does not preclude local "common sense" restrictions on firearms.

"Gun Salesman of the Year"

If were left our to our local government; what restrictions to expect see as firearm owners and our lawful rights, under the Obama opinion ?

Oddly enough; Obama is not alone in voicing his opinion of the Second Amendment. Although our own Representatives, which elected to serve this county, they also have similar views about the second amendment, do own our Board of County Commissioners, The County Chief Police, Our State Representatives, Our Court System, and many more.

While their busy creating more restrictions the for law abiding citizen obey and conform to, and criminals which go about wreaking havoc and chaos with no respect for the law, I can't help thinking we are getting a step closer a toward dictatorship in the nation.

Ok for states & cities to determine local gun laws
Q: Is the D.C. law prohibiting ownership of handguns consistent with an individual's right to bear arms?

A: As a general principle, I believe that the Constitution confers an individual right to bear arms. But just because you have an individual right does not mean that the state or local government can't constrain the exercise of that right, in the same way that we have a right to private property but local governments can establish zoning ordinances that determine how you can use it.

Q: But do you still favor the registration & licensing of guns?

A: I think we can provide common-sense approaches to the issue of illegal guns that are ending up on the streets. We can make sure that criminals don't have guns in their hands. We can make certain that those who are mentally deranged are not getting a hold of handguns. We can trace guns that have been used in crimes to unscrupulous gun dealers that may be selling to straw purchasers and dumping them on the streets.

"And so it begins"

Micro-Stamping

Feb 15 01:07 PM US/Eastern
By NEDRA PICKLER
Associated Press Writer

MILWAUKEE (AP) - Barack Obama said Friday that the country must do "whatever it takes" to eradicate gun violence following a campus shooting in his home state, but he believes in an individual's right to bear arms.

"I think there is an individual right to bear arms, but it's subject to commonsense regulation" like background checks, he said during a news conference.

He said he would support federal legislation based on a California law that would facilitate immediate tracing of bullets used in a crime. He said even though the California law was passed over the strong objection of the National Rifle Association, he thinks it's the type of law that gun owners and crime victims can get behind.

Does Barack Obama Support a Gun Ban on Firearms ?
MILWAUKEE – Sen. Barack Obama this morning commented on Thursday's shootings at Northern Illinois University, as he also discussed his views on gun laws.

Before speaking to a rally here, Obama said the nation must do a "more effective job of enforcing our gun laws, strengthening our background check system, being able to trace guns that are used in violent crimes to unscrupulous gun dealers -- so that we can crack down on them -- closing gun show loopholes."

He specifically pointed to a California law as a possible model.

"There was a discussion today about a law that has just passed in California that allows micro-tracing of bullets that have been discharged in a crime so that they can immediately be traced," he said. "This is something that California has passed over the strong objections of the NRA…That's the kind of common sense gun law that gun owners as well as victims of gun violence can get behind."

Obama said he believes in the Second Amendment, but that there is plenty of room for added gun regulations. "There is an individual right to bear arms, but it's subject to commonsense regulation," he said.

Mentioning his home city, Obama said local entities should also have the ability to have their own more strict regulations.

"I think that local jurisdictions have the capacity to institute their own gun laws…The City of Chicago has gun laws, as does Washington, D.C.," he said. "I think the notion that somehow local jurisdictions can't initiate gun safety laws to deal with gang-bangers and random shootings on the street isn't born out by our Constitution."

Barack Obama on Gun Control

FactCheck: Yes, Obama endorsed Illinois handgun ban

Obama was being misleading when he denied that his handwriting had been on a document endorsing a state ban on the sale and possession of handguns in Illinois. Obama responded, "No, my writing wasn't on that particular questionnaire. As I said, I have never favored an all-out ban on handguns."

Actually, Obama's writing was on the 1996 document, which was filed when Obama was running for the Illinois state Senate. A Chicago nonprofit, Independent Voters of Illinois, had this question, and Obama took hard line:

35. Do you support state legislation to:
a. ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes.
b. ban assault weapons? Yes.
c. mandatory waiting periods and background checks? Yes.

Obama's campaign said, "Sen. Obama didn't fill out these state Senate questionnaires--a staffer did--and there are several answers that didn't reflect his views then or now. He may have jotted some notes on the front page of the questionnaire, but some answers didn't reflect his views."

Concealed Carry OK for Retired Police Officers

Obama voted for a bill in the Illinois senate that allowed retired law enforcement officers to carry concealed weapons. If there was any issue on which Obama rarely deviated, it was gun control. He was the most strident candidate when it came to enforcin and expanding gun control laws. So this vote jumped out as inconsistent.

When I queried him about the vote, he said, "I didn't find that [vote] surprising. I am consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry. This was a narrow exception in an exceptional circumstance where a retired police officer might find himself vulnerable as a consequence of the work he has previously done--and had been trained extensively in the proper use of firearms."

It wasn't until a few weeks later that another theory came forward about the uncharacteristic vote. Obama was battling with his GOP opponent to win the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police.
