^Obama does support the NRA, right? He signed the bill allowing guns in the National Parks, so sure throw him on the woodpile, but I don't see anywhere that his rhetoric approaches say that of LaPierre (French for gun toting fagot? not in a sexual way, just ineffectual).

President Obama has done more to advance the rights of gun owners than any President in my lifetime.
Within his first two years in office he signed legislation allowing me, a concealed carry holder, to carry into the state parks in my state
in addition he signed legislation allowing me to transport my gun when I ride the Amtrak which I do occasionally
Republican President Bush had both a Republican House and Senate and could not even get these gun owners advances done.
In contrast, it was Republican Ronald Reagan who signed into law the very restrictive
Brady Bill
and by the way, I agree that there isn't any difference between buying a gun from a dealer or buying a bun in the newspaper, if one has to have background checks then the other should to, and that makes sense to me as a gun owner and I support President obama in suggesting, against all odds, that we pass at least some additional work to help the FBI and police departments identify and link gun sales and gun crimes, makes sense

Q-wise for zBrown...
as CFry mentions it can mean questioning to some groups... in general and as a rule though, at this point in history, it does mean queer...
as far as why? in order to include more of the rainbow that did not identify as L, G, B or T. that said it can also include those who identify as L, G, B, or T as well, because the origination of the word queer was generally rooted in an academic/political/activist agenda and has more to do with the self-identification of a person relative to the heteronormative and cis-gendered prevalent cultures than it does with a generally agreed universal definition. as a result of this, queer is generally a word that one should only use to describe someone who self-identifies as such. there are many L, G, B, T, and other individuals who are not interested in being included under the "queer" umbrella due to their experience with what to them is a pejorative that they are not interested in reclaiming.
when? the word queer started to become reclaimed in the mid to late 80s and according to the interwebs started to be added to lgbt to become lgbtq in the mid-90s. but in general, lgbtq didn't move outside of activist circles, as far as i saw, until the latter aughts.
the more you know...

There seems to be some confusion between bringing guns into State parks vs National parks...
Obama was involved in allowing guns in National Parks...

So Kaine might turn out to have a leadership quality that's reassuring, comforting - like Captain Aubry ("Lucky Jack") in Master and Commander. :)
Clinton Kaine 2016!
Curt, it looks like you won our little game. Shucks.

zBrown, you don't get it. His anti-cop rhetoric is what I am talking about.
Pointing out that cops shouldn't murder blacks is "anti-cop" rhetoric. Got it.

I think Obama is likely anti-rogue cop, as am I.
Similarly, I'd say we're both pro good cop (like my uncle and his son - Detroit center city - both fairly racist, but never killed anyone white or black).

So we better hope he's as good as Pence in the debate.
I'd hate to see the Presidency turn on such a trivial thing.

I hope Hillary takes the high road in the debates (I think she will) but subtly troll him into the gutter, which I think would be easy.

running around making like cops see some poor innocent black man walking down the street and the cops just decide to shoot him for sport. In nearly all of these the person that was shot did something stupid to get shot.
C'mon Jody. You don't really believe that do you?
First, the po-lice do not have the authority to execute someone for being stupid, even if true and you know what, reaching into your pocket for license and registration as demanded is not even stupid.
Stop defending mental defectives and support those who aren't.

And the cops are eventually exonerated in nearly all of these insistences.
