specificly speaks on the SEMI-AUTO Ban. which includes most pistols common hunting rifles and shotguns.
First of all, I was merely stating my position on gun control. I understand that fully auto weapons are currently illegal. I have many friends who would like to repeal the ban on full auto, which is crazy. I have no issue with any semi-auto weapons, other than assault rifles. If it can hold 30 rounds, what use is that other than for illegal activities? Does it take you 30 rounds to take down a 6 point? If so, head to the range and sharpen up your skills. The other issue is armor piercing ammo. Since when do deer wear Kevlar?
I am not familiar with that website you showed above, but I can assure you that it looks questionable at best to me. I would prefer to get my info straight from the source.
Here is a video of Obama seaking about gun issues:

Here is another text source stating both sides stance on gun control:

Here is an excerpt of that text that stands out for me:
Voted for 2006 amendment prohibiting confiscation of firearms from private citizens, particularly during times of crisis or emergency.
Obama.com wrote:Address Gun Violence in Cities: As president, Barack Obama would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn't have them. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent, as such weapons belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets.
