So you all are angry that under Obamas DOJ half a million Americans who couldn't legally own guns before were given the right to?
Kind of strange seeing conservatives support the population being less armed. But then again, Obama.

If I was a Bernie fan would I say this. TAKE THE GUNS! I don’t know about you but I hate all my weapons.
Why? Did you think there would be a list of names and crimes when it says that they were deleted?

I think you are making a big mistake sticking up for Obama for party reasons.
He pulled the smith mundt act crap, now the country is turning nuckin futs.
We will have fake shooting after fake shooting, and probably a few copycat shootings and real dead kids, until the US is in a civil war.
The chaos this dbag has unleashed could lay nuclear waste to the entire world.
Sounds extreme, but we are the role models to a large part of the planet.
Time to demand and end to the intentional chaos going on right now.
I was joking when I said the democrats would sink the entire ship if they lost power, now it's not really funny anymore, it's a threat.
Read the news, they have gone full on psyops.
Since you labeled them all "killers" in your post above,
What was that old saying that went along the lines of "I'd rather 100 guilty men walk free than to punish one innocent man."?
I'm not taking up for Obama. Under his administration whole families were droned just because they might have been near someone they were after.
I would rather the 100 guilty men serve their sentence and let the innocent go free. It would be safer that way.

Your concern for the citizens of another nations being killed by weapons more than your concern for fugitives in my nation who can now legally own a gun is quiet alarming, and telling.

Do you believe gun laws stop criminals from owning guns?

Depends on what the warrants are for.
Do you support the innocent Americans who wrongly end up on these lists not being able to legally own firearms? Are you ok with a blanket ban on everyone with a felony, warrant or otherwise?
Because that's what you're arguing in support of.
Mainstream media and Beltway pundits and politicians in recent months have unleashed a wave of panic in the nation linking the escalading violence in Mexico, and its projected spread into the U.S., to illegal weapons smuggling.
The smokescreen being spread by these official mouthpieces of manufactured consensus is that a host of criminal operators are engaging in straw (or fraudulent) gun purchases, making clandestine purchases at U.S. gun shows or otherwise assembling small caches of weapons here in the states in order to smuggle them south of the border to the “drug cartels.”
The Obama administration is now sending hundreds of additional federal agents to the border in an effort to interdict this illegal arms smuggling to reassure an agitated middle-America that Uncle Sam will get these bad guys. The cascade of headlines from mainstream media outlets printing drug-war pornography assures us in paragraphs inserted between the titillation that the ATF’s Operation Gunrunner and other similar get-tough on gun-seller programs will save America from the banditos of Mexico.
To be sure, some criminal actors in the U.S. are smuggling small arms across the border. But the drug war in Mexico is not being fought with Saturday night specials, hobby rifles and hunting shotguns. The drug trafficking organizations are now in possession of high-powered munitions in vast quantities that can’t be explained by the gun-show loophole.
...
“[Mexican] traffickers have escalated their arms race, acquiring military-grade weapons, including hand grenades, grenade launchers, armor-piercing munitions and antitank rockets with firepower far beyond the assault rifles and pistols that have dominated their arsenals,” states a recent story in the Los Angeles Times. “The proliferation of heavier armaments points to a menacing new stage in the Mexican government's 2-year-old war against drug organizations. …”

“That was a decision that was made under the previous administration,” Bowdich replied. “It was the Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel that reviewed the law and believed that it needed to be interpreted so that if someone was a fugitive in a state, there had to be indications that they had crossed state lines.”

You forgot to add fugitives from the law in that statement. Do you write speeches for Nancy Pelosi?
