Next up, a picture of Obama in a threesome with Hitler and Idi Amin. It’s amazing what a fevered imagination, some painting skills and no education can produce …It’s funny you should mention that, because…
I thought this picture was notable because I doubt most Americans even know who Idi Amin was.
The difference between bearing arm then and bearing arms now is HUGE.
Then, citizens were hunting. Then, citizens were creating a new country from scratch, and worrying that another country was going to strong arm them. Then, militias and citizens were the “police force.”
Now, guns are used for crime. They are pretty rarely used for hunting, private citizens have no worries about foreign invasion, and there’s an ACTUAL police force (who, frankly, I wouldn’t trust with with a gun any day of the week).
I don’t know what I think about a private citizen’s right to bear arms, but I do know comparing the field from them with the field now is ridiculous. They are apples and oranges.

This always frustrates me, because as near as I can tell, Obama hasn’t done anything to interfere with my right to bear arms. It’s just more bullshit Right Wing paranoia.
