If we don't need guns, then let the White House take the lead. Remove all guns from Secret Service surrounding the President and his family. Until then Mr. President, MY family is every bit as important as yours.

Right, because if you get assassinated there will be millions of people impacted globally. No you aren't as important. Neither am I nor are the 81 members of this board.
Ridiculous. You obviously don't understand what happens to a country when their leader is assassinated.

That's BS. I don't give a crap what happens to the country when a president is killed. I would care if my son, brother, or parent is killed. They are MUCH more important than that jerk off is.

Well isn't that interesting. Because is America we don't have a KING. We have a President who is no more nor less than any other man in this country.
Look, I know your ego makes you THINK you're important but you really aren't. I don't give a rat's patootie about your kid. I do care about my president, regardless of who he/she is.
You aren't as important as the prez. Deal with it.
Oh, so we have "Important" Americans who are worthy to be protected by guns and "Non important" Americans, like your child or your grandchildren. Wow. That isn't the America I want to live in.

I may not be--but my family is. I don't give a crap if the president gets killed. I would care if a member of my family gets killed.

I don't give a rat's arse about Obama. DEAL with it. The world has been spinning for 1000's of years before him and will long after he's gone.

If my family is being threatened you can be really sure that I would not be worrying about what would happen if we had to replace an assassinated President. We survived the death of much better Presidents than him. At that point your opinion has no importance at all.

So you're saying we shouldn't protect our president? I think you're a traitor.
LOL!!!! What an idiotic statement.
First of all, what she said was that he shouldn't be such a hypocrite that he won't let everyone else protect their families with guns--while he enjoys that protection.
Reading comprehension can be your friend. Try it.

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying. My death will affect maybe a couple hundred people. So what? When a world leader is assassinated it affects many. We simply don't get the same treatment. Like it or not, that's a fact jack.
Our lives and are families are as important as our president if not more important. "We the People" It was funny, hysterically funny. Hillary spoke to a Lion's Club here in NH near me yesterday about gun control, surrounded by her entourage of gun toting FBI peeps. People were rolling their eyes.

Did you happen to notice that Lady Justice used to have a blindfold on? The President is a man. He's not a King. He isn't "more important" than anyone else. He is a man who also happens to be the President.
I'm glad Joe wasn't my Father. He would have done anything to protect me. Of course because Obamas kids won't be affected by gun laws I could really care less whether his family is safe if mine is not.

No it isn't. I put zero importance on that guy. We'd be better off with someone else.

The vice President is sworn in.
If he dies, the Speaker of the house takes the position.
There is a whole, long list of people to take his place.
And honestly, Obama would not be a loss to anyone other than his family.

The president cannot override the Constitution with an executive order. For those of you that want to live in that kind of dictatorship - there are plenty of countries for you to move to.

Yes, but he already is LL. We have a DO NOTHING Congress that stands by and allows him to act as King.
Buying and owning firearms is going to become harder and harder.
From tighter restrictions to purchase them to harder to find ammo to required storing methods to stiffer punishment for using them by law abiding citizens.
The 2nd ammendment won't be ripped out and tossed all at once.
Like all freedoms, it will be slowly eroded away until there is nothing left.

We are well aware of the impact of an assassinated President but it still doesn't make him any more important than my family. There have been a few Presidents that were assassinated and yet the world did not end. If that argument works for you when someone or something is threatening your family then just stand back and watch.

The point is that the President is no more important than anyone else. If he's assassinated the world doesn't end. Are you having comprehension troubles today?

flan, I love you dearly, but the impact is mostly general, limited to our country and emotional. The world still goes on regardless of the loss.
We (as a nation) have the ability to adjust rapidly. Johnson proved that after the assassination of Kennedy.
The rest of the world knows we will go forward. There may be slight changes, politically, but very little otherwise. Our fundamental core (constitution) remains unchanged.

To suggest that there should be no more Secret Service? Really?
To suggest taking guns away from law abiding citizens is traitorous. If the President can protect himself then so can I. Believe he's more important than you if you want but I do not believe he is any more important than anyone else.

The Secret Service is for protection. All American citizens have the right to protection as well. We simply have to protect ourselves, while the President has someone to do that for him.
So, IMHO, if he can have protection, then so should I.
