Obama: ...right to defend itself...

[LeavingMass]

While on tour abroad on Wednesday, candidate Obama made a statement...

"America..must always” stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself. ..."

Funny this coming from someone that doesn't feel the SAME about the citizen of HIS OWN COUNTRY..

I will distance myself from any known Democrat voter I know

Wow, that sounds really tolerant... If im reading this right sounds like your going to basically shun half the country, probably a bunch of coworkers, and more than likely some family members. While your at it you should distance yourself from everyone who doesnt share your religous beliefs, or favorite color, or drive the same kinda car, etc... Instead of distanceing yourself you should be trying to educate them!

In a perfect world, Obama would actually be telling the truth and we'd be able to adopt an Isreali weapons policy - every home has a military rifle or two.

In a perfect world candidates like Obama and McCain would never be seen because neither would follow the Constitution.

Israel also has pretty strict gun control based upon what I've read. Owner licensing, background checks that take weeks, and other limitations American supporters of the Constitution would balk at.

Many Israeli policies have reduced violence in specific instances, and some should probably be copied here; but it is not an example to be emulated in all cases for the US.

So how long before someone finds a news clip of him saying just the opposite....

As I've said before, Obama isn't saying anything the typical politician seeking to win would not say. Based on the changes he's taken on many key issues, this doesn't surprise me at all, and furthermore, I wouldn't be surprised if he changes his mind on this matter again one month from now, especially if a bunch of Palestinians end up dead or injured.

Your rant is INVALID

You distance YOURSELF from CRIMINALS right ?
OR DO YOU ?

YOU distance yourself from PEDOPHILES right ?
OR DO YOU ?

You distance yourself from negative influence right ?
AND YET YOU DON'T DISTANCE YOURSELF from the rest of SOME of society right ?

So why you assert that if I choose to distance MYSELF from some folks YOU suggest I distance myself from EVERYONE else that I disagree with ?

Are you CLOSE with The Brady Campaign or are you close with the NRA ?
YOU distant yourself from one of them.
YOU can't be CLOSE with BOTH

Secondly: If you're PRO GUN, are YOU gonna let some ANTI come "educate" and convince you NOT TO BE PRO GUN ?
So why should I waste MY TIME trying to "educate" one that is a committed ANTI-GUN ?

I guarantee that an anti thinking like YOU that THEY can come "educate" me and change my mind about being PRO-GUN will die waiting
Who tells you an anti doesn't feel the same way as WE do about our guns ?

YOU or I CAN'T win them ALL, and its SENSELESS to THINK that YOu or I CAN CHANGE THEM ALL.

I'm thinking that there are some "anti-gun" folks among us acting as "pro-gun" and trying to stir the pot here. Folks, don't be dragged into an argument that can't be won. I've done some research on a few of the "questionable" members and have found some interesting info.

Be aware that this is a public forum and that anything you post here may someday come back and bite you in the back. ;)

he's saying it because it's not in our country. I imagine he thinks some random Israeli having a gun thousands of miles away is different from your neighbor having one

Yes and Luke could really be an FBI oprative getting all our gun info.The info here is public and it is open to anybody. I have really good talks with my antigun laywer friends and find very ill informed . I like the input here from all you and find most of us preaching to the chior.
