When guns are outlawed and confiscated, then only outlaws in and out of government will have guns to control the citizens. It appears that Obama is working to join Hitler, Mao, Stalin, Lenin and Castro to disarm citizens. Gun control laws do not control crime because crimes are not committed by guns.

Issues important to you have crystallized because I hear them often. I understand the importance for voters to know exactly who and what you are voting for in a candidate. […]
Earlier in December, some Yale students signed a petition to repeal the 1st Amendment. It made some embarrassing national buzz. It is ironic since the right to petition is part of the 1st Amendment.
