The Bright Spot in ObozoNomics

The Statist in the White House is good for something.

...Precise figures on firearms sales don't exist. But based on the number of calls made to the FBI and Wisconsin Department of Justice for background checks related to firearms purchases, more guns are being sold this year than ever.

The number of calls to Wisconsin's handgun hotline set a record in February, with nearly 16,000 calls. So far this year, the hotline has handled more than 53,000 calls. That's on pace to far eclipse 2011, when the hotline handled just shy of 90,000 calls for the full year.

Nationally, calls for firearms purchases using the FBI's instant criminal background check system totaled nearly 1.2 million in March, according to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, a firearms industry trade group. The number is up 20% over a year ago and marks the 22nd straight month-over-month increase, NSSF said.

Good.  Think that Obozo gets the hint?

    This statistic says more about certain gun owners than the President.

    It may be dificult to find a bright spot, but here is another obozo black spot. (they are easy to find since there are so many of them. )

    BLS is distorting the unemployed figures by reducing size of labot force. The numbers are a sham, but what else is new under this administration?

    Vox reports.....

    Yes, we're smart enough to know which way the winds are blowing. Which is way more than the president.

    "Yes, we're smart enough to know which way the winds are blowing. Which is way more than the president."

    Please tell me what the President has done to negatively impact the gun industry and/or gun owner in the past 3 1/2 years. Give me concrete evidence of violations of your 2A rights or even legal limitations to them since 2008. I'm not looking for generalizations or which way the "winds are blowing". Concrete evidence please. It's been almost 4 years so assumptions and generalizations about what MIGHT happen to your 2A rights are baseless partisan, drivil at this point.

    So by all means......

    I love how you call yourself Catholic but have derogatory names for others. Dislike (even hate) their politics but stop the name calling.
