"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."


The 2nd amendment of the constitution...

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

The Supreme Court has declared this means that Americans have the individual (not collective/militia use)right to own firearms.

In the Heller decision it was declared that no class of weapons in common use will be banned.

The most popular weapon in the United States is the AR-15, This proposal by our President will ban this particular weapon.


From our Presidents acceptance speech today...

So let us mark this day with remembrance, of who we are and how far we have traveled. In the year of America's birth, in the coldest of months, a small band of patriots huddled by dying campfires on the shores of an icy river. The capital was abandoned. The enemy was advancing. The snow was stained with blood. At a moment when the outcome of our revolution was most in doubt, the father of our nation ordered these words be read to the people:

"Let it be told to the future world...that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive ... that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet ."

America. In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.


These were Americans...Militia men....Citizens who with their firearms fought and trumpeted against tyrany....

Millions of Americans have died to preserve the rights guaranteed by the constitution, the Constitution today he swore to defend along with Vice President Biden.

Today I pray to god that they keep their oath.
