My favorite part:
"I also believe that a lot of gun owners would agree that AK-47s belong in the hands of soldiers, not in the hands of criminals," Obama said. "That they belong on the battlefield of war, not on the streets of our cities."
Show me a gun owner that thinks this.
Total deceit. The guy is saying something any rational person would take as obvious, but he is insinuating that most gun owners think AK-47s should be illegal. I disagree. I think you'd have a hard time finding a lot of gun owners who think this.
While I recognize the potential danger of these particular firearms, the bottom line is that the guns that spend the most time at the range are the AR's, AK's, Glocks, and 45s. They are the most fun to shoot, offer the most utility, and are what people I bring to the range want to shoot the most. My 30-30 is a great gun, but I don't see people lining up to get a turn shooting it.
The good news is that this would not get through congress at the moment.
