I often see gun control advocates discussing confiscation favorably, poutrage exclaiming that we should "melt them down", Australian gun laws, and other forms of lunacy. Obama himself has shown admiration for Australian gun laws, which if enacted here would amount to confiscation. Hillary Clinton has done the same. Right now, Bloomberg's groups are running a campaign to get Obama to take action on gun control via executive order. Everytown/MDA, doesn't mention what the EO would contain. Hopefully, it's the same EO that the Obama administration has been floating for a few months, which would in my opinion make it easier for private citizens to sell firearms by defining a specific number of sales before someone is "in the business".

The end goal of gun control efforts in the United States is a ban or defacto ban on civilian ownership of firearms.

I support Obama and HRC, I just think they are both wrong on this issue.
