American firearm sales and concealed handgun permit applications are
at all-time highs since the 2008 election of President Barack Obama.
President Obama's perceived hostility towards gun owners has been one of
the key factors behind the multi-year financial boom the firearms
industry continues to enjoy. In fact, the National Rifle Association
(NRA) is actively preparing to work to defeat President Obama's 2012
re-election campaign, according to Wayne LaPierre, the CEO of the NRA,
who recently said the following at the 2012 Conservative Political
Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, D.C.:
"Lip service to gun owners is just
part of a massive Obama conspiracy to deceive voters and hide his true
intentions to destroy the Second Amendment during his second term. We
see the president's strategy crystal clear: Get re-elected and, with no
more elections to worry about, get busy dismantling and destroying our
firearms' freedom, erase the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights
and excise it from the U.S. Constitution...When the sun goes down on
election day Barack Obama will have America’s gun owners to thank for
his defeat.” -
Wayne LaPierre, CEO of the NRA, February 10th, 2012
Ironically, the perceived hostility towards gun owners by President
Obama has actually helped the firearms industry tremendously. Since the
2008 election, more Americans than ever before are purchasing firearms
& ammunition. This has meant massive increases in sales by firearm
& ammunition makers,
billions more in federal and state tax collections related to guns &
ammo, increased membership in the NRA, and hundreds of thousands of new
Americans carrying concealed handguns. Therefore, should the firearms
industry support President Obama for a second term or not?
