The one industry that has managed to grow in Obama’s otherwise completely failed economy? The gun industry.
Barack Obama: The World’s Greatest Gun Salesman.
Via InfoWars (yeah, I know…):
Black Friday gun sales hit an all time record high last week with demand for new firearms so overwhelming that it caused outages at the FBI background check center on two separate occasions.
Fueled by fears that the Obama administration will go after gun rights during a lame duck term, the FBI reported 154,873 background check requests on Friday – a 20 per cent increase on last year’s record total of 129,166 checks.
The number of guns sold could actually be double or more that figure because only one background check is recorded per sale even if buyers purchase multiple firearms.
“With the recent election, some people are making buying decisions just in case something (new law) happens,” Don Gallardo, manager of Shooter’s World in Phoenix, told USA Today.
I didn’t buy a new gun on Black Friday. But I do have my eye on a new Mossberg 12 gauge shotgun for Christmas…
This commenter is dead on: “If the UN thinks they are going to disarm the American people they should bring one thing. A large supply of body bags.”
Gun stores noted that first time gun owners and women represented a significant number of those purchasing firearms on Black Friday.
Gun sales were so brisk that the FBI’s Instant Background Check center was overwhelmed with the volume of requests and crashed on two separate occasions. Some even saw the outages as an insidious way of providing “anti-gunners a clue about how to suspend the Second Amendment.”

“how to suspend the Second Amendment.”
The Second Ammendment has been “suspended” for a long time, way before BHO ever came on the scene.
The Second Ammendment doesn’t say “shall not be abolished”, or “taken away”, or “terminated”, or anything as drastic as that. It says “shall not be infringed.” To infringe means to nibble away at the edges, to gradually encroach upon something.
In other words, Congress doesn’t have to abolish gun ownership in order to violate the Second Ammendment; the Second Ammendment is violated if they even try to “gradually encroach” upon gun ownership rights.
What this means is the ANY resrictions AT ALL on gun ownership violate the Constitution.
Not that it matters; Congress hasn’t given a damn about the Constitution in over a century.
“Ammendment”
Dang.
