Remember when Obama was going to take everyone's guns? It was hilarious watching people panic buying, stocking up on ammunition, and generating massive profits for the gun manufacturers. All fueled by the NRA which is nothing more than the marketing division for gun manufacturers. In the end no guns were taken away.
Grifters were even writing books about it in hopes of profiting off of the false fear people had.
"The gun rights debate isn’t just about firearms. It’s about protecting a fundamental right that is enshrined in the U.S. Constitution. It’s about politicians who lie, manipulate, and outright break existing laws to get what they want. It’s about President Obama wanting a bigger federal government to control you. Not just your guns—you."

The truth about Obama taking away people's guns:
In his first month in office,
Obama overturned a 20-year ban on loaded guns in national parks and wildlife refuges. Licensed gun owners from any state can now carry concealed, loaded weapons on federal land.
Ten months later, as part of an omnibus spending bill,
Obama reversed a decade-long ban on transporting firearms by train. Amtrak travelers can now carry unloaded, locked weapons in their checked baggage.
These actions, and others, are what earned
Obama an "F" from the Brady Center for Gun Violence in 2010 for "extraordinary silence and passivity" on gun control. But Obama saw the moves differently.
