Hi Everyone

Good news! It looks like we will hit the 25,000 signatures needed on our Whitehouse.gov petition that will require President Obama or his staff to answer.

Bad news! It won't matter that much. The anti-gun petition is being fueled by the mainstream media and is up over 160,000 signatures. It is a record for the petition system since it began. The second place petition is also anti-gun and currently has over 30,000 signatures. You guys couldn't even beat the also ran.

Bad news #2! While over 60,000 of you clicked into the petition website page yesterday (yes, we count), only 20,000 of you signed the petition. We understand your need for privacy, but the government already knows who you are. They scan in all of your 4473 forms! ARE YOU GOING TO STAND OR ARE YOU GOING TO TRY TO HIDE?

Over 1350 websites linked to our petition today, but it just isn't good enough. We need the major firearm manufacturers to post the link in their Facebooks, and that means you need to go post it on all of their Facebook pages. Many of them have fans in excess of a quarter million. WILL YOU ALL BE SILENT WHILE NANCY AND HARRY SALIVATE OVER OUR GUN RIGHTS?

NEWS FLASH: The NRA shut down their 1.7 million strong Facebook page today. This petition is the only pro-gun petition in the running. The Whitehouse petition site may not be the perfect place to plead the case of the law abiding American gun owner, but it is all we have.

GunsAmerica is only one website. We email over 700,000 subscribers, but it isn't enough against a media barrage from every major network and online outlet, reaching into the tens of millions. If you have a website with readers, a blog, anything, please link it directly to the petition page on the Whitehouse website. Do not link to the GunsAmerica Blog page. The full letter is not what matters now. It is purely that number that matters, and if we can get it up to 50,000 today Drudge will probably pick it up. It is our only hope to have a voice in this discussion.

It is up to us to do the heavy lifting through these first few days. Please sign the peition, and help out if you can.

As of 12/21/12 11:30 Mountain the White House site will not let me create an account and sign the petition. It takes you to a page that indicates "This page is currently undergoing site maintenance."

I'd expect this from the FEMA site.

Went to the site and they had an official response president Obama want your military style weapons band.

PURE bullpoopy.    The ONLY place where there is a copy of your 4473 is with the dealer you purchased the firearm through.  There is NOT a copy, scan, fax, reproduction of the 4473 anywhere else, but in that dealer's possession.

If you fucked up somewhere along the lines, then the BATFE will request that your dealer provide them the information on the 4473, but you'd already know about that by now... 

If the BATFE calls a dealer for info, when tracing a firearm, that dealer has 30 minutes to get that information back to them - and it's not 31 minutes, either.  The only time that happens is when a serial number shows up at a crime scene.

Someone, somewhere in this petition process, is bullshitting people. 

[planeflyer21]

I can name several retailers that take the physical copy of the 4473 and SCAN it into their database.

Now...where is that thread on how the government can access any electrical device in your possession?

Just because it isn't on the government computer doesn't mean they don't have access to every...single...one.

Kind of like the "voluntary as far as the government is concerned social security" program, "Sorry, we won't hire you unless you give us your SSN, as we are required by law to submit your information to the IRS."

How do you sign the damn thing ? I read nothing about where to sign it  !

[Magwa]

I went and read the response and really did not care for it , it seemed to be a quote from one of his speeches made this week bottom line is there are to many ignorant people out there that have no clue what a assault weapon is or is not .to many people in the white house are clueless to what guns are what and how they even work, the name assault weapon is a catch phrase that all anti gun people have latched onto and it is not going away, what they for get or don't know is every gun in every closet is based or a copy of a military weapon from some era in our past or future.
