Yep. That one's true. Obama voted to allow such lawsuits to continue.
H2O_MAN wrote:FACT: Barack Obama wants to re-impose the failed and discredited Clinton Gun Ban.
Yep. That one's true. "Clinton Gun Ban" is a reference to the assault weapons ban. The term "assault weapon" is deliberately meant to mislead people into thinking they are full auto weapons, so some people refer to the ban under different names. Regardless, Obama supports renewing the ban.

The vote in question would certainly outlaw military surplus ammo. It would also get ammo that is especially designed for self-defense, if that ammo is in one of the targeted rifle calibers.

Yep. That one's true.
(Chicago's next on the menu after we get done shredding DC's unconstitutional gun law.

That one's true too.
H2O_MAN wrote:FACT: Barack Obama wants to eliminate your Right to Carry.
Yep. Obama is on record calling for a federal statute to prohibit state governments from issuing concealed carry permits to anyone other than the police.
H2O_MAN wrote:FACT: Barack Obama favors a ban on standard capacity magazines.
Yep. That is true as well. He wants to limit us all to 10 rounds.
The ones I didn't address are not necessarily false -- I just am not familiar enough with those claims to vouch for or against them.
