..."How are we to take these charges from the Democrats seriously when they refuse to deal with the actual gun problem we have while insisting on hounding the law abiding? If you’re really worried about the number of deaths due to gun violence in this country (rather than simply yapping about it to gain a few points in the polls) how about we show that we’ll treat illegal gun ownership, trafficking and use in a serious fashion?"...

It appears they were non-violent drug offenders, and they simply had firearms in possession while committing the non-violent crime. This is a pro-gun move, and Obama is basically saying: that really isn't a crime. What is the problem with this?

So a firearm charge (likely possession during commission) automatically makes one a violent criminal? Wow.


Double standards, hypocrisy and pyschobabble is SOP for lib dem agenda advancement:(items in red my emphasis)

It isn't a double standard. In short, those people should never have been in prison to begin with.

So in other words, possession of a firearm inherently makes one violent. At least that's my interpretation of calling this a double standard.

So the problem is guns, not people? I mean, if they were non-violent without the firearm, does the firearm make them violent, especially if they never used it in an aggressive manner?
