Obama against Concealed Carry Permits?

Question

Why Is Obama in favor of making a law against states issuing concealed carry permits for guns? I've had my permit for 12 years and I don't want to give it up. I'm a law abiding citizen and have gone through all my background checks and training. It bothers me that he's in favor of taking this away from law abiding citizens.

Answer 1

Anti- gun nuts are professional victims....

However, they call the police, which is kind of hypocritical on their part because they are SO AGAINST guns, yet they are requesting one for assistance...  

Anyway, your answer will best be answered in a voting booth.

Answer 2

source ?

or did you just make that up?

Answer 3

I live in KS, we have the right to conceal and carry here.  Violent crime has gone DOWN here since that law passed.

Anti gun zealots don't think big picture.

I carry my firearm for several reasons.  I carry to protect my wife and unborn child from the thugs who like to pedal drugs and rob people in the Wichita area, to prevent crime if I see it and there is not a police officer available, to prevent violence with the threat of violence when necessary.  I am highly trained in the use of firearms, but by the US Army and by state mandated training courses.  If that were not enough, I am a lifetime hunter and combat veteran.  Most people who conceal and carry, know the resposibility that comes with the right, and are trained to know the appropriate use of said firearms.

Answer 4

I haven't seen any such thing and you haven't cited any sources on it.  I'm not particularly in favor of concealed carry permits.  

Answer 5

Not a surprise when you consider where the good Senator is from...the south side of Chicago. Not known as the most gun friendly city on the planet.

Answer 6

What exactly is it that you need to have a gun for? Do you transport money from a business to the bank? Do you own a store that has a high probability of being robbed? If not, then you really don't have a need for a gun.

Answer 7

So you're saying that because YOU have a concealed carry permit and "don't want to" give it up, he shouldn't enforce the laws?  

I have a stolen car in my garage, and I "don't want to" give it up either.

Answer 8

JW, it's not for you to decide if anyone should carry a gun.  

Answer 9

Obama is all about taking social control and putting forth his agenda. Obama also doesn't want you to drive an suv, eat as much as you want, or keep your home at 72 degrees. Obama is arrogant and think he knows what's best for you, your family, and the future. Obama will do whatever he wants b/c he's arrogant. Stop him from getting elected if you want to keep your personal freesoms.

Answer 10

Obama represents 1 of the 2 largest socialist/totalitarian political parties in our country.  As part of one of those parties, his job is to erode your civil and economic freedom to suit the desires of that political party.

Vote Libertarian (or Republican if you have no other choice) and protect your rights as a human to defend yourself and live a life of responsible personal freedom.

Answer 11

I think he was just trying to appeal to the anti-gun demographic.  He has changed his position on this a few times I believe.  Personally, I'm in favor of concealed carry.  Do to my circumstances (not being able to drive to to poor peripheral vision) I'll have to be moving to the city, and I wouldn't even consider going without a concealed carry permit.
