Actions Not Words

My father once told me "it's not what you say, it's what you do". Politicians publically reinvent themselves all the time to get elected. So the only thruth about them is their history.

From Illinois citizens;

"He puts conditions on what the Second Amendment is," . . . . . . "That's scary to people."

"Illinois gun owners aren't stupid. They see the handwriting on the wall,"

"Since the election, people are looking for high-capacity handguns and long guns which have the capability to use a high-capacity magazine," . . . . "Those are the guns most likely to be banned."

From the politician;

President-elect Barack Obama said Sunday that lawful gun owners have "nothing to fear" from his incoming administration so there is no reason for Americans to stock up on guns.

"I believe in common sense gun safety law, and I believe in the second amendment," Obama said at a press conference Sunday.

"And so, lawful gun owners have nothing to fear.

And so who should we believe, the words and actions of people who know him and what he's done, or the words of the politician?

If he was really all about the right of the citizens of the United States to own firearms, additional purchases would be seen as nothing more than consumers doing their part to stimulate the economy.
