My not too bright granddaughter in-law was all upset about Obama supporting some law to take guns

away. Has he said anything like this lately and she said something about taking guns that have magazines that shot more than 10 bullets. What kind of bills are even up in Congress to do these things.

1. Obama isn't going to take away any guns.

Last I heard federal legislation regarding anything like a ban died after Sandy Hook. New York and Connecticut have begun regulating magazine capacity. Most state level firearm regulation has loosened restrictions rather than tighten them.

3. Thank you - that is what I thought. She got her idea on Facebook. I told her she was listening to

the wrong people. She also said it was some article in The Hill. I usually ignore what she has to say about any subject but she as mad at me and would not let up.

2. Please correct the title of your OP

When the title of your OP is:

"My not to bright granddaughter in-law was all upset about Obama supporting some law to take guns"

When it should be:

"My not too bright granddaughter in-law was all upset about Obama supporting some law to take guns"

You lose a lot of people who will not read your post when you disparage your in-law with improper spelling and grammar. All at the same time you are making fun of your in-law.

5. Fine. You got it.

4. There are presently no Obama laws addressing numbers of bullets in a gun or gun magazine.

Any laws even remotely like these are State Laws, proposed and enacted by State legislators, not federal, not Obama.

Start with that. And end with that.

These are the facts.

6. Attempts at the federal level failed to pass Congress.

Some states did pass similar laws, some tried and failed.
