Does Obama deserve credit for the incredible boom of the firearms industry?

Credit boom
Bubba asked:


“Since the end of the last election gun sales in America have skyrocketed and the firearms industry barely keeps up with the demand”.

” The ranks of the “seasoned” gun owners have swollen with millions and millions of people who until Hope Changey was elected President would have never considered buying and owning a firearm”.

Yes, I’ve been selling my guns at a good profit. I don’t like Obama for President, but he can’t affect gun ownership. I’m betting on it.

The NRA has his voting record on gun control and if you believe in the right to keep and bear arms, you better buy one now.

I don’t think Obama deserves the credit. I believe the credit goes to all those xenophobic Americans in the south.

Indirectly I suppose. Mostly it’s just fear mongering among the gun nuts in this country.

They may be preparing to rise up if obama takes away our second amendment rights. Are forefathers would spit in his face if the heard his views on guns. I have guns, and I will never give them up. Obama never even served in the military his radical views on people and many things disturb me.
Although I think overall he’ll be a decent president

Not Obama . All his friends like Rev Wright get the credit. His views of America scare me to death.

Stupidity is the reason for increased gun sales.

No, that would be Palin and McCain who deserve the credit for that nonsense. Their fear mongering led those already paranoid about the government taking their guns to go slightly crazy when Obama was elected.

People in the firearms industry saw this coming and helped George Soros fund Change Hopely’s candidacy.

Yes. For 2 reasons. Obama’s stand on the 2nd amendment and for when he fails to secure America.

people are buying guns for protection and obama has nothing to do with it. but the tyrant george bush did. without going into it just look at what is about to happen in our country and you will know the true reason people are buying guns.

O’s views on the 2nd Amendment has caused this to happen. My family and friends are avid hunters and have owned guns for as long as I can remember. I have never owned a gun but I am buying one this weekend and plan to get a large supply of ammo before O has a chance to take away my right as an American to own a firearm.

ok,so we get the guns.you also better learn how to load your own ammo.they control the ammo as easy as the guns.
don’t remember which state proposed it and it went down in flames but the libs never give up and it’ll be back.

There are 10s of millions of Americans who own arms…thats a HUGE army that the libs MUST disarm before they are able to impose their socialist utopia….now my question to you is…will Americans hand them over??….I for one will NEVER hand over my weapons….the day they come for my guns is the day they will turn this life long law abiding citizen into a criminal…and they had better bring their Waco tanks…they are going to need them..

Edit: Hey Massive man..the second amendment is not about hunting…its not even about self protection…its meant to give us a means of fighting a tyrannical government…can’t do that with a .22 bozo…wise up.. I feel as you do about stupid people.

Yes he does..THis only goes to prove how utterly STUPID the right-wing nut jobs really are.They think he will change the CONSTITUTION and take away their guns, so first…THEY BUY MORE!!! Second, they forget the CONSTITUTION cannot be changed by any one man, it requires a bill to pass the HOUSE and SENATE, and THAT will never happen. What Obama wants to see happen is MACHINE GUNS banned as well as ARMOR PIERCING ROUNDS!!!! You do not need an AK-47 with bullets that can blow a hole in a steel door to hunt BAMBI!!!n God, I hate stupid people, you know? Thanks for the chance to shed some light on this subject!!
